Rip it€51 of cards inside, after selling costs
Estimated contents: nobody has published measured pull rates for this box yet, so we use those of boxes with the same pack layout. Treat the numbers as a rough guide.
Why we'd rip it
The cards inside are worth €51 after selling costs. The box costs €36.
Most boxes come out ahead: only 41 of 100 boxes lose money.
Pull rates are still uncertain. The real value could be anywhere from €37 to €91. That's enough to change the verdict.
If you opened 100 boxes
- 59 make money
- 41 lose money
A typical box is worth €42. 1 in 10 boxes is worth €98 or more, and 1 in 10 is worth €14 or less.

How we work this out
