Of course it matters what you are going to use the pieces for, but it's more like if you are a big business the price will go up.

It works the other way around actually. If you want exclusive rights to use a piece you are paying extra for that right.
Per default the artist owns the copyright to everything he creates. The customer just buys the right to ALSO use the artwork. It's not much different from those stockphoto sites.
commercial jobs are often explicit in the contract about the product and all derivatives being their property.
They always ask me the question: is it that for yourself or for the market?
Personally I hate this question because I am paying the talent and the time he will spent so as GK sayd he should not care about my purpose.
I don't think for an expert ilustrator it will take more than 2 hour to paint a HQ card in black and white,
so if they will ask me more than 10 I will try to find someone else because I am doing it just for passion and will share with other people for free so I CAN'T really spend so much for it.
