The concern here is that you can hoard any card & then it becomes overpriced? I don't think this is good for the hobby, only for the collectors that are hoarding them.

Yes, you are exactly correct about the other cards. What I was referring to specifically was the population reports. Per PSA, there are only 16-PSA 6's, 3-PSA 7's, 1-PSA 7.5, and only 1-PSA 8 for Titus. That is a very low population, which is going to account for some of the premium it brings. Maybe the lower grades are more in line with other commons, I will definitely check.... I still believe most of it is being the only player in the set with the unique moustache. I would kill to find this card in a 7 or higher and then sell my 6.....
