Keep it sealed€15 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 keep it sealed
The cards inside are worth €15 after selling costs. The box costs €171.
On average you lose €156 per box. Buying the singles you want is cheaper.
Some pull rates are estimates, so the real value is likely between €13 and €18.
