So, I was browsing the clone troopers on the catalog here and happened to set
my parameters to "Highest Quantity First".
My question is to sellers, why is the price so high on the 212th clone if the
quantity is so similar to the 501st troopers? Is the quantity disproportionate
to the difficulty to acquire the 212ths?
I prefer 212th over almost any other clone division, so this is a genuine curiosity

demand and sets available in. The cheaper was in a battle pack which is one of
the cheapest ways to get sw figures and in it is 4 similar figures and the other
is in a large set, a “rare” set (the paper bag as they are only available in
some countries), and the Christmas Callender which is only valuable for a couple
months

There aren't many 212th figs in cheap sets, so even the cheapest of them
is quite high compared to the very plentiful 501st.
