To determine which deal offers better value, we can compare the total volume of the magnets in each set. This will give us a rough estimate of the amount of magnetic material you're getting. Here's the volume of each magnet, calculated as π×r2×h\pi \times r^2 \times h, where rr is the radius and hh is the height:
259-piece Set
100 pcs 3x1mm: π×(1.52)×1×100=706.86 mm3\pi \times (1.5^2) \times 1 \times 100 = 706.86 \, \text{mm}^3

Conclusion
The 500-piece set provides a greater total volume of magnetic material (23,561.95 mm³) compared to the 259-piece set (16,724.24 mm³). Thus, the 500-piece set offers a better deal in terms of the amount of magnetic material you're getting.

I bought a large variety of individual magnets from kjmagnetics.com to test. Obviously, bigger is better. I haven't had the need to order more of any one particular size, but the 3/8" round or 3/8" square by 1/8" are pretty good with a .4mm layer below them.

Just FYI. Good chance you don't care about this, but for some projects I need things to not be attracted to the outer edges. I still use these, but I also treasure the "disposable" christmas light magnets that our business pays for every year when the light hangers install new ones.
