except of course when folks (i.e. stores) buy, then it's allays 50% of
scrye, (if your lucky.....) My shop would barely give my 30% of scrye
low, then always priced the commons at about 120% of Scrye high..... I
wind up not buying singles of anything, and sticking with packs.......

Thank goodness I'm down to just playing Shadowrun.
