5 unweighed vintage packs is perfect for reenacting the childhood trauma. Or with today’s rates, create new trauma.
You guys still opening packs? lol
BF likes opening packs so I got him two (BB/WF) ETBs and a Destined Rivals booster bundle. So 24 packs. I think about 6 packs in all had hits. It was with in-store credit, so I didn’t “lose” money, but it was still a good amount of credit at today’s LGS prices. 210 dollars or so.
And when I say hits I don’t mean “super expensive card,” I mean anything above a regular holo. Maybe 40% is a decent hit rate, I’m not sure. It just felt extremely disappointing at the time. I’ve also had the flip side, where a Twilight Masquerade ETB had 5 hits including the Carmine FA.
Either way, that money could have gone to a few expensive singles we really liked. I think at MSRP opening a lot of packs at once is fine, but I will be personally staying away…
The only time I open booster packs are prize winnings from tournaments I participate in since I don’t really like storing loose packs. Also CBA to sell the loose packs.
Otherwise the answer is 0 unless you got it as a gift
To actually enjoy everything in it, including the commons, that 4 packs i’ve been opening per set is pretty close to the max amount! After that it’s pretty much just rushing to the end which is the inappropriate way
My gatekeeping skills are unmatched
