How the EV is Calculated
EV per booster pack = $3.12
Sum of (average card value × pull rate) across all 5 rarity tiers. Based on 5,000 pack openings.
$3.12 × 3 packs = $9.36
This product contains 3 booster packs.
$9.36 + $0.50 promos = $9.86
Promo card value is based on live TCGPlayer prices.
$9.86 ÷ $26.22 = 37.6% return
Sealed price is the average TCGPlayer market price. Above 110% = Rip It, below 90% = Keep Sealed.
Cash-Out EV: $6.31 — applies a 0.64x multiplier to account for TCGPlayer/eBay fees (~13%), shipping, and the gap between market price and actual sale price.
