    Stillmock v. Weis Markets, Inc., 385 F.Appx. 267, 274 (4th Cir. July 1, 2010) (Unpub. Disp.); see also Amchem Products, 521 U.S. at 617 (" The policy at the very core of the class action mechanism is to overcome the problem that small recoveries do not provide the incentive for any individual to bring a solo action prosecuting his or her rights" ); Hanlon v. Palace Entertainment Holdings, LLC, No. 11-987, 2012 WL 27461, *5 (W.D. Pa. Jan. 3, 2012) (" [T]his [FACTA] case represents an action in which the potential damages obtainable by an individual -- as low as $100 by statute and capped at $1,000 -- are likely too low to incentivize suit" ). Moreover, the fact that attorneys' fees may be awarded does not demonstrate that class-wide resolution is not the superior approach.
