How the EV is Calculated
Step-by-step walkthrough of the pack EV, promo value, and cash-out assumptions.
EV per booster pack = $0.70
Sum of (average card value × pull rate) across all 4 rarity tiers. Based on 500 pack openings.
$0.70 × 1 packs = $0.70
This product contains 1 booster pack.
$0.70 = $0.70
No promo value applied for this product.
$0.70 × 0.64 = $0.45
Cash-out EV applies a 0.64 multiplier to account for marketplace fees, shipping, and bulk liquidity discount.
Market: $0.70 ÷ $14.19 = 4.9% • Cash-out: $0.45 ÷ $14.19 = 3.2%
Above 110% = Rip It, below 90% = Keep Sealed.
