Soul Fusion Booster Box

Is a booster box of SOFU worth opening?

Box price$74.94TCGplayer market price
Expected value$61.47
If you sell the cards$17.92With a 5% fee and leaving out cards under $0.50
A typical box$16.96The median of 10,000 simulated boxes
You get your money back0.0%Almost never

On average, no: selling the cards from a SOFU box would get you $17.92, 24% of the $74.94 it costs. A typical box gives $16.96 and only 0.0% of boxes get your money back. If you're after a specific card, buying it as a single is usually cheaper.

How reliable the rates are: good (several sources that agree).

SOFU pull rates

How many cards of each rarity group come in a 24-pack box, how many packs it takes to pull one specific card of the group and how much the group adds to the box value.

What weighs most in the expected value: expensive cards that are hard to pull.

Where the numbers come from

The expected value adds up, for each rarity group, the copies in a box times the average price of its cards (the English card, with its TCGplayer price or, if there isn't one, Cardmarket's converted). The simulation opens 10,000 boxes with the same rates.

2016-2020 core booster: 7 commons, 1 rare and 1 foil per pack; per 24-pack box, 18 Super, 4 Ultra and 2 Secret Rares on average (Konami, 2015). Starlight Rares (Rising Rampage, Chaos Impact and Ignition Assault) have no published rate: they don't count. The catalog lumps 1st Edition and Unlimited cards together.
