    When you go to the store for, say, cotton swabs, do you expect them to let you buy just one out of the package of 200?
    When they have apples in bags at $3 for 6, but loose at $1 apiece, do you expect they'll let you take an apple out of the bag and buy it for $0.50?

    Of course not.

    Now why do you think that the case? That is, why do you think bulk discounts are so commonly offered?

    Wait, you don't do that? What kind of world do you live in? I just teleport to the Aetheryte Crystal closest to my favourite store, buy everything I currently need and shove it all into my impossibly large backpack then teleport home. Takes me less than 10 minutes. Why on earth would you do it the old fashion way?
