Not certain if this is the right spot on the boards, but I have a question about the miniatures marked 'unbagged' in the D&D minis singles section. The disclaimer states that the mini may or may not have a card. As I use Paizo to fill in my collection (and satisfy my unfortunate addiction to dragons of all sorts), as well as for gaming purposes, is it possible to confirm the number of minis vs. number of cards, or is it luck of the draw (due to acquiring collections and such)? My preference would be to have the cards, and your selection of singles is the best I've seen (and backed by super customer service to boot!).
Best regards to the Paizo staff!

That's the answer, I'm afraid. Now, the good news is that *almost* all of the minis have cards—and, in fact, quite a lot of the minis we're selling as "unbagged" are actually still bagged.
It's just too complicated to track separate inventories of bagged with card, bagged without card, unbagged with card, and unbagged without card for 645 different products—and offering the choice to customers would greatly complicate the user interface, and make pricing them too complicated. So we've simplified it to this: if we've ever sold out of bagged minis, and restocked with unbagged, the description will always say bagged, and won't guarantee a card, even if we get bagged figures later.
If it's really important that you know if a particular mini has a bag, let us know, and we'll check, for a reasonable number of minis, anyway.

D'oh! I meant, "will always say unbagged." That is, if our inventory is a mix of bagged and unbagged, we'll say unbagged on the website (but we'll actually ship the bagged ones first, and, whenever possible, will try to include a card).

Thanks for the quick reply and good explanation Vic. I completely understand the logistics involved. My concern isn't about the bags themselves (couldn't care less if it's bagged or not), but rather the presence of the card, otherwise it's not much good to me. Mostly I'm just trying to hunt down the dragons from the older sets (there's six you have in stock I was looking at), and would only need the mini and card.
All the best!

Thanks again,
My list is short, only 6pcs (all D&D minis):
Giants of legend: bronze wyrmling
Archfiends: Large Silver Dragon
Dragoneye: Brass dragon (young)
Dragoneye: Blue wyrmling
Dragoneye: Large red dragon (young)
Dragoneye: small white dragon (very young)
If it's possible to check, I would be most grateful (and order them straightaway).
Best regards.
