Granted not everyone can afford to spend the $$ on a case, but I think singles bought in store (like Reapers) add up after a while. But if you absolutely have no need for some of the commons, then this might be the better otion for you. We like to have a lot of minis, and a lot of stuff we never know when we'll need. If it's not something WoTC sees a demand for, we might not be able to find it otherwise. The way I see it, $129 for a case ($119 if you don't count the shipping cost) is around $1.00 per mini. MojoGM & I probably won't sell the ones we don't want, but say you wanted to do this...surely there are people on Ebay who'd buy them as a lot for more than a few  $'s. 2. Trading commons for a rare. Or vice versa. I have noticed some rares we've gotten that we will likely never need. We probably won't be selling them but there are a lot of people who would rather have say, 5 orcs (commons) than one pick a random rare monster for a number of reasons and might be glad to trade. It might take a short while to find someone, but I don't think that is impossible. Perfect example is MojoGM & I got about 3 drunken masters in that case of 16 booster packs. We will likely never need them. I can think of a few commons that we'd rather have more of. Of course, we're hanging onto them...you just never know when they will come in handy.3. Maybe you have had a bad time with Ebay. Others have not. I've never had a bad time with EBay, personally. I'm not sure if Gallo22's example was from Ebay but he said he paid $13 for a lot and got 20+ minis. But Ebay isn't really a trading site. When I say trade, I mean for FLGS that have trading things set up, like if you were to bring in a rare you would never need, and trade for a few commons, or bring in a bunch of commons and trade for a rare. Kind of like used cd stores....say you have a rare live recording of a band and you bring it in...they'll probably give you a higher amount in trade in value for it to pick out maybe 2 or 3 easy to find cds. Or vice versa.</blockquote>
