So a guy like me could buy 6 items from that stack of 50.
    This is a huge thing. I can't stand when I look up an item, and all I can find are stacks of 99, and I need like 3. I don't want to buy 99 at 1k each (or more), but I'd happily buy 4 or 5 instead. I always list mine in stacks of 5-25.

    Ditto, and most of the time, the people selling in stupid high stacks are usually the ones trying to hold a monopoly so that you can't get it at a lower quantity.

    THIS! I've actually monopolized (or very nearly) a few products by selling in reasonable stacks. I almost never have to change my prices because people are looking at net cost most of the time, not price-per-item. I think it's polite to keep things at a level where potential buyers can assume what their mats are going to cost. If someone tries to undercut me, I take all my stuff down, let the supply dry up and check back in a couple of days. It pays to make things easy on the buyer.
