How the EV is Calculated
EV per booster pack = $1.84
Sum of (average card value × pull rate) across all 5 rarity tiers. Based on 8,000 pack openings.
$1.84 × 3 packs = $5.52
This product contains 3 booster packs.
$5.52 + $0.50 promos = $6.02
Promo card value is based on live TCGPlayer prices.
$6.02 ÷ $24.94 = 24.1% return
Sealed price is the average TCGPlayer market price. Above 110% = Rip It, below 90% = Keep Sealed.
Cash-Out EV: $3.85 — applies a 0.64x multiplier to account for TCGPlayer/eBay fees (~13%), shipping, and the gap between market price and actual sale price.
