If I were to price cards...

Commons : put them in a big box and sell them for 10 to 20 cents each. Good
commons get dumped in a box that says 50 cents.

Uncommons : True crap like skillsofts and laser scope which have a very
limited effect get dumped into my crappy box of commons. Better ones like
wanted,bear totem, etc go for about a buck. The rest get dumped in my 50
cent box.

Rares : Again true crap get to go into the 20 cent, 50 cent or one dollar
box. Cards which are worth some game play value will be charge at pack price
(whatever it will cost me for a pack at the current moment). Great cards
like Torgo I'll ask for 2-3 pack value.

Actually aside from rares, I usually give cards away....
