How the EV is Calculated
Step-by-step walkthrough of the pack EV, promo value, and cash-out assumptions.
EV per booster pack = $6.34
Sum of (average card value × pull rate) across all 6 rarity tiers. Based on 2,000 pack openings.
$6.34 × 9 packs = $57.06
This product contains 9 booster packs.
$57.06 + $6.74 promos = $63.80
Promo value uses live TCGPlayer prices for included promo cards.
$63.80 × 0.64 = $40.83
Cash-out EV applies a 0.64 multiplier to account for marketplace fees, shipping, and bulk liquidity discount.
Market: $63.80 ÷ $108.54 = 58.8% • Cash-out: $40.83 ÷ $108.54 = 37.6%
Above 110% = Rip It, below 90% = Keep Sealed.

Your results will vary.

- ●Sealed price ($108.54) is the average TCGPlayer market price across all variants of this product.
- ●Promo value ($6.74) is based on live TCGPlayer prices.
- ●Cash-out EV applies a 0.64 multiplier to market EV (TCGPlayer fees ~15% + shipping + bulk discount/slippage).
