Despite your absolutely perfect way of breaking this product down, e-packs still continue to confuse the heck outta collectors like me.
I understand why they do it like they do, but I hate having to wait until I get 5,10 or however many of one card before being able to "cash it out".

I understand why accrual set building is both interesting and lucrative, but the numbers for obtaining the gold set are staggering. You need 250 of a base card to obtain 1 gold parallel card. To get a complete gold parallel set of 300 cards, you'd need 75,000 base cards. There are 2304 cards per case = $270, so you'd need to open at least 33 cases to just get your hands on about 75,000 base cards. That's about $8900. Of course you can trade with other collectors to help get the cards you need, but it still strikes me as formidable odds. But if you have the money and the collecting bug, it's a cool project to undertake. I suppose obtaining a complete blue parallel set is relatively easy and the inserts are good chase cards.
