How the EV is Calculated
Step-by-step walkthrough of the pack EV, promo value, and cash-out assumptions.
EV per booster pack = $0.62
Sum of (average card value × pull rate) across all 4 rarity tiers. Based on 500 pack openings.
$0.62 × 10 packs = $6.20
This product contains 10 booster packs.
$6.20 + $3.94 promos = $10.14
Promo value uses live TCGPlayer prices for included promo cards.
$10.14 × 0.64 = $6.49
Cash-out EV applies a 0.64 multiplier to account for marketplace fees, shipping, and bulk liquidity discount.
Market: $10.14 ÷ $114.67 = 8.8% • Cash-out: $6.49 ÷ $114.67 = 5.7%
Above 110% = Rip It, below 90% = Keep Sealed.
