You can buy 2 HOFers of that grade for that price.

Even raw lowgrades go for $25 + dollars. If you need one the best way is to try and buy a lot with one in it.

Runner up: Maggee Port. always double of normal common.

I know I saw that the other day and was blown away that people are paying that much for a mid grade common. I am beginning to think that all my 3's and 4's are going to start jumping in value like the higher grades.

You can add T206 Demmitt (NY) to Magee and Doyle regular
cards. Also, add T206 O'Hara (NY); and even Heine Wagner.
What can I say, people new to collecting T-type cards are
paying ridiculous prices for these cards just because of
their names.

Speaking about O'Hara the same "crazy" prices are being
payed for an Imperial Tobacco (C46) O'Hara. O'Hara, if I
recollect right, played only 1 year in the major leagues.

For O'Hara, it's the massive amount of Canadian collectors buying up his cards....just ask Max.

Line me up for the tomato throwing but my vote goes to Honus Wagner. As pointed out previously, there appear to be less graded Wagners from any of the caramel sets compared to the T206. However, they aren't worth nearly a fraction. Too much hype
