      On a side note that value was calculated only using the last 4 cards in the pack. I didn't add any value for regular foil commons and uncommons, borderless common or uncommons, and foil bordeless commons and uncommons. The EV for borderless foil commons and uncommons add about another $7 to the pack and regular borderless commons and uncommons adds another $3. Not much compared to the rest of the pack but its another $10 bill not added into the value per pack on average. However they are the easiest to get and will go down the most. But dam I want a foil borderless Eternal witness.

    • @propjoe2261
      @propjoe2261 2 ปีที่แล้ว +1

      I think this much duplication can also be seen as a positive thing. It seems closer to true randomisation than other sets e.g the DM VIP packs. You can now pull 4 seals out of half a case, but also could get none in 1 full case. Increases the chance of hit or miss but on the other hand you don’t seem to have exploitable mechanisms like the 1 out of 4 VIP packs that had 0 mythics.

    Here's the math on the textured cards: 3% chance of pulling a textured card per pack (fyi: there's 5 different textured mythics you can get). 8 boxes is 32 packs so 32(.03) = .96. Therefore, you should get .96 textured cards for each case you open (this is expected value). So, yes, roughly speaking about 1 textured card per case.
    To take this further, using binomial distribution (we either get a textured foil or we don't, therefore, it's a binomial choice) (X = # of textured cards out of 32 trials with 3% chance of success):
    Binomial probability (X = #) Cumulative probability (X < =#)
    X = 0 is .37731 X = 0 is .37731
    X = 1 is .37342 X

    Ok Rudy, I did a quick breakdown of the first 4 packs. These are just the "hits" and using the average prices on TCG Player as of July 5, 2022 You made more than the cost of a CASE, in the first 4 packs. Meaning the next four packs are "free" and pure profit. This doesn't count the Uncommons that are $5-10 etc etc. I've watched about 20 videos of Collector openings, and have yet to see one where the actual value of the cards is less than the cost of the box.
    First Box ~ $541
    Liliana Borderless $85
    Concordant Non-Foil $37
    Hardened Scales $25
    Ulamog Foil Non Texture $86
    Damnation Non-Foil $28
    Mana Drain Borderless Foil $280
    Second Box ~ $880 (without Ulamog, $180)
    Damnation Non-Foil $28
    Gifts Ungiven Foil $ 39
    Liliana Foil $35
    Bloom Tender Borderless Foil $42
    Concordant Non-Foil $37
    Ulamog Textured $699
    Third Box ~ $536
    Emrakul, The Aeons Torn Foil $40
    Force of Negation Etched $100
    Damnation Borderless Etched $79
    Smothering Tithe Borderless $42
    Bloom Tender Foil $42
    Dockside Extortionist Borderless Foil $165
    Mana Drain Borderless Non-Foil $68
    Fourth Box ~ $ 601 (Without Imperial Seal $292)
    Damnation Non-Foil $28
    Hardened Scales Foil $60
    Forbidden Orchard Foil $39
    Supreme Verdict Borderless $21
    Liliana Borderless Foil $53
    Imperial Seal Borderless $309
    Hardened Scales Foil $60
    Restoration Angel Foil $31
    First Four Boxes Total; $ 2558 Average price for CASE (8 Boxes) $ 2178 Profit from just the first 4 boxes is $380. Like printing Taco Bell Money with your Step-Mom.

    All the pre-order values on these cards are sky high. They are currently being propped up by original printing / popularity / rarity prices... but once all these boxes start getting cracked over the next 3 months, the prices should fall a fair amount, for this set only and slight dips for the originals and other printings. The boxes should go down in price. BUT with how these collector boxes are popping out all the bangers... I would not be surprised at all if we were to see Collectors Boxes disappear from shelves / online en masse. And the textured cards should hold value over time, even eclipsing their original printings by a good amount.
    SO in other words = Buy Collector Boxes now (to open or price horde) before they disappear AND hang on to any of the textured cards for long term super value. Wait to buy draft booster boxes, they will go down in price surely. Just focus on buying Collectors.

    Caught the Walmart restock this week. These single packs are ringing up for 84 dollars... I was quick to put it back. I'm sure some kid will steal em and pull some fire

    Yes singles to the floor! I will personally lose a few bucks on old cards, but playing will be more accessible, and more power in the meta.

    That imperial seal in the old frame would look AMAZING

    No one should be buying these after all of the crying and complaining about it being so expensive. "It's just four packs. I don't want them. This is a bad product." Now people want to switch up lol.

    Man what a set. That’s how you make a premium product

    I was only able to grab a set box sadly, all the CBs were sold out. Still, looking forward to cracking it.
