We are getting ready to list a bunch of baseball cards. We know how to create a listings with different items which works for selling cards. Is it possible to create a listing with a minimum purchase? In example the buyer would have to purchase at least 5 cards. We don't want to sell cards for $1 each and then pay fees/shipping/etc.
Not sure if we have seen anyone else do this before Thanks

I don't believe so. However, it appears you have a store, so you could price them at $5 each, and offer a quantity discount. You could do either Buy 1 get 4 free or buy 5+ save 80%.
The price might scare off some buyers if they don't pay attention to the discount. Or they might think that to qualify for the discount, they have to buy 4 of the same item. (They don't, they can buy from any of the listings you put into that promotion.)
I do similar discounts (although not as drastic). I have many items priced at $3.99, and they are part of a Buy 4+ save 50% promotion. I've sold hundreds of them and sell a lot more than expected at full price (because the buyer apparently only wanted a single item).

What's with the $63 shipping for your dinosaur toy ? Ship gouging is the biggest turn off for buyers.

I agree with the quantity discounts. I've sold a lot of smalls that way.

On top of doing the suggested discounts that others have posted, you could list the cards in lots. I have been successful with lots of 6 pieces when I list my sports card collection.
