How the EV is Calculated
Step-by-step walkthrough of the pack EV, promo value, and cash-out assumptions.
EV per booster pack = $2.83
Sum of (average card value × pull rate) across all 5 rarity tiers. Based on 8,000 pack openings.
$2.83 × 1 packs = $2.83
This product contains 1 booster pack.
$2.83 = $2.83
No promo value applied for this product.
$2.83 × 0.64 = $1.81
Cash-out EV applies a 0.64 multiplier to account for marketplace fees, shipping, and bulk liquidity discount.
Market: $2.83 ÷ $44.80 = 6.3% • Cash-out: $1.81 ÷ $44.80 = 4.0%
Above 110% = Rip It, below 90% = Keep Sealed.
