How the EV is Calculated

Step-by-step walkthrough of the pack EV, promo value, and cash-out assumptions.

01

EV per booster pack = $4.09

Sum of (average card value × pull rate) across all 5 rarity tiers. Based on 700 pack openings.

02

$4.09 × 8 packs = $32.72

This product contains 8 booster packs.

03

$32.72 + $2.11 promos = $34.83

Promo value uses live TCGPlayer prices for included promo cards.

04

$34.83 × 0.64 = $22.29

Cash-out EV applies a 0.64 multiplier to account for marketplace fees, shipping, and bulk liquidity discount.

05

Market: $34.83 ÷ $115.28 = 30.2%Cash-out: $22.29 ÷ $115.28 = 19.3%

Above 110% = Rip It, below 90% = Keep Sealed.

Your results will vary.

  • Sealed price ($115.28) is the average TCGPlayer market price across all variants of this product.
  • Promo value ($2.11) 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.
