The 9 or 10 random purples and the Chance at a golden ticket makeup The difference.

Except that right now there is no chance at a GT.

The 9 or 10 URs are the value there.

9 or 10 URs for $500 is a really good value, if someone has the time to run an auction and ship out all the tokens.

Thats exactly it. What is your time worth?
Moat people aren't breaking the bank.

I would submit that of someone were to sell their 9 or 10 URs for cash, they probably wouldn't net more than 200 or 300.

Its definitely a labor of love.

Yup, exactly. It all depends on which URs you get as randoms, but chances are half of them will be decent and half of them will be crappy, so the net gain is not large, but it is there if you want to put the time into it.
