How the EV is Calculated
Step-by-step walkthrough of the pack EV, promo value, and cash-out assumptions.
EV per booster pack = $0.68
Sum of (average card value × pull rate) across all 4 rarity tiers. Based on 500 pack openings.
$0.68 × 7 packs = $4.76
This product contains 7 booster packs.
$4.76 + $3.00 promos = $7.76
Promo value uses live TCGPlayer prices for included promo cards.
$7.76 × 0.64 = $4.97
Cash-out EV applies a 0.64 multiplier to account for marketplace fees, shipping, and bulk liquidity discount.
Market: $7.76 ÷ $112.02 = 6.9% • Cash-out: $4.97 ÷ $112.02 = 4.4%
Above 110% = Rip It, below 90% = Keep Sealed.
