How the EV is Calculated
Step-by-step walkthrough of the pack EV, promo value, and cash-out assumptions.
EV per booster pack = $2.43
Sum of (average card value × pull rate) across all 3 rarity tiers. Based on 630 pack openings.
$2.43 × 8 packs = $19.44
This product contains 8 booster packs.
$19.44 + $1.00 promos = $20.44
Promo value uses live TCGPlayer prices for included promo cards.
$20.44 × 0.64 = $13.08
Cash-out EV applies a 0.64 multiplier to account for marketplace fees, shipping, and bulk liquidity discount.
Market: $20.44 ÷ $114.86 = 17.8% • Cash-out: $13.08 ÷ $114.86 = 11.4%
Above 110% = Rip It, below 90% = Keep Sealed.

- ●Pull rates are community-sourced from 630 pack openings (https://www.digitaltq.com/vivid-voltage-booster-pull-rates-pokemon-tcg, https://pack-kingdom.com/pokemon-booster-pack-pull-rates/). Your results will vary.
- ●MSRP is $49.99. Current sealed price ($114.86) may be above or below retail depending on supply and demand.
- ●Sealed price ($114.86) is the average TCGPlayer market price across all variants of this product.
- ●Promo value ($1.00) is based on live TCGPlayer prices.
- ●Cash-out EV applies a 0.64 multiplier to market EV (TCGPlayer fees ~15% + shipping + bulk discount/slippage).
- ●EV is an average. Any single opening can be much higher or lower. High-value chase cards are rare — most packs return bulk.
