How the EV is Calculated
Step-by-step walkthrough of the pack EV, promo value, and cash-out assumptions.
EV per booster pack = $1.96
Sum of (average card value × pull rate) across all 5 rarity tiers. Based on 8,000 pack openings.
$1.96 × 11 packs = $21.56
This product contains 11 booster packs.
$21.56 + $45.32 promos = $66.88
Promo value uses live TCGPlayer prices for included promo cards.
$66.88 × 0.64 = $42.80
Cash-out EV applies a 0.64 multiplier to account for marketplace fees, shipping, and bulk liquidity discount.
Market: $66.88 ÷ $175.26 = 38.2% • Cash-out: $42.80 ÷ $175.26 = 24.4%
Above 110% = Rip It, below 90% = Keep Sealed.

Your results will vary.
- ●MSRP is $49.99. Current sealed price ($175.26) may be above or below retail depending on supply and demand.
- ●Sealed price ($175.26) is the average TCGPlayer market price across all variants of this product.
- ●Promo value ($45.32) is based on live TCGPlayer prices.
- ●Cash-out EV applies a 0.64 multiplier to market EV (TCGPlayer fees ~15% + shipping + bulk discount/slippage).
- ●EV is an average. Any single opening can be much higher or lower. High-value chase cards are rare — most packs return bulk.
