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 × 10 packs = $7.00
This product contains 10 booster packs.
$7.00 + $4.39 promos = $11.39
Promo value uses live TCGPlayer prices for included promo cards.
$11.39 × 0.64 = $7.29
Cash-out EV applies a 0.64 multiplier to account for marketplace fees, shipping, and bulk liquidity discount.
Market: $11.39 ÷ $126.66 = 9.0% • Cash-out: $7.29 ÷ $126.66 = 5.8%
Above 110% = Rip It, below 90% = Keep Sealed.
