Hello fellow pack collectors and thanks for your help with the last group of packs. The 20th group of packs has already been posted.
Here's the next group of packs for your consideration.
We are trying to organize individual card packs into groups based on availability - ranging from extremely rare to common.
You can seen how far we've gotten using the drop down menus under Scarcity on the top menus.
Express your opinions! Argue with each other! Disagree with our previous picks.

I agree with this completely. If we base decisions on price alone then we are just a crappy price guide. For the most part, price does follow scarcity but as pointed out above, Batman may be the perfect counter example. Batman packs are constantly listed and seem to sell in the upper hundreds for graded examples and yes, I was one of those kids who worshipped TV Batman. (I have a vivid memory of buying Batman cards when I was about 6 or 7 years old).
So, should be Batman packs be moved down to limited? Maybe, though, the popularity of the packs (and the high prices) is the reason that they are so frequently listed. Possibly the ease of sales makes dealers try to list them as much as possible. But who is buying them? Let's face it. There are probably only a few dozen active pack collectors. As a collector, I'm trying to get one of each pack issued. I'm not interested in having a pile of Batman Packs just sitting in boxes at home. Maybe they are being opened and the individual cards are being graded...Card grading was the worst thing to ever happen to pack collecting!
That being said, I am OK with moving batman packs down to limited.
