How the EV is Calculated

Sum of (average card value × pull rate) across all 7 rarity tiers. Based on 1,500 pack openings.
$4.02 × 9 packs = $36.18
This product contains 9 booster packs.
$36.18 + $1.00 promos = $37.18
Promo card value is based on live TCGPlayer prices.
$37.18 ÷ $302.62 = 12.3% return
Sealed price is the average TCGPlayer market price. Above 110% = Rip It, below 90% = Keep Sealed.
