How the EV is Calculated
Step-by-step walkthrough of the pack EV, promo value, and cash-out assumptions.
EV per booster pack = $3.55
Sum of (average card value × pull rate) across all 4 rarity tiers. Based on 371 pack openings.
$3.55 × 4 packs = $14.20
This product contains 4 booster packs.
$14.20 + $1.00 promos = $15.20
Promo value uses live TCGPlayer prices for included promo cards.
$15.20 × 0.64 = $9.73
Cash-out EV applies a 0.64 multiplier to account for marketplace fees, shipping, and bulk liquidity discount.
Market: $15.20 ÷ $56.48 = 26.9% • Cash-out: $9.73 ÷ $56.48 = 17.2%
Above 110% = Rip It, below 90% = Keep Sealed.
