With almost no hobby box prices under $100 there needs to be affordable products for those who can't afford to spend a paycheck at every trip to a hobby store.
Plus, since almost all (Never use an absolute) stores do a better job at ensuring the boxes are not weighed, picked through or other activities we don't like, there is a bigger confidence for the person buying those boxes at an LCS

It just goes from the random loser in Walmart/Target weighing/feeling up the product to the LCS owner doing it in many cases.
