How the EV is Calculated
Step-by-step walkthrough of the pack EV, promo value, and cash-out assumptions.
EV per booster pack = $1.94
Sum of (average card value × pull rate) across all 6 rarity tiers. Based on 8,000 pack openings.
$1.94 × 9 packs = $17.46
This product contains 9 booster packs.
$17.46 + $10.96 promos = $28.42
Promo value uses live TCGPlayer prices for included promo cards.
$28.42 × 0.64 = $18.19
Cash-out EV applies a 0.64 multiplier to account for marketplace fees, shipping, and bulk liquidity discount.
Market: $28.42 ÷ $130.95 = 21.7% • Cash-out: $18.19 ÷ $130.95 = 13.9%
Above 110% = Rip It, below 90% = Keep Sealed.
