Problem is that some people need to show this off, and by paying something with their Titanium Card (and having people in that store/place watching him swipe that card), they show their status. There's also people who would do anything to get this, just for the sake of having the Centurion Card, and not the benefits,which ( the non-tangible ones) are the best IMO.

Anyways, just the way I see it.
dead on! i remember there was a poster on here last year who was offering $21k to anyone who could help him obtain a cent card.

needless to say more.....
