How the EV is Calculated
Step-by-step walkthrough of the pack EV, promo value, and cash-out assumptions.
EV per booster pack = $1.78
Sum of (average card value × pull rate) across all 6 rarity tiers. Based on 8,000 pack openings.
$1.78 × 9 packs = $16.02
This product contains 9 booster packs.
$16.02 + $12.34 promos = $28.36
Promo value uses live TCGPlayer prices for included promo cards.
$28.36 × 0.64 = $18.15
Cash-out EV applies a 0.64 multiplier to account for marketplace fees, shipping, and bulk liquidity discount.
Market: $28.36 ÷ $109.10 = 26.0% • Cash-out: $18.15 ÷ $109.10 = 16.6%
Above 110% = Rip It, below 90% = Keep Sealed.
