Is that booster box worth opening?
Open it, or buy the singles you actually want? For each sealed box we line up its price against what's inside — the single biggest chase card, and the whole set bought as singles. Where we have a pull-odds model for the set, we also show the expected value of an average box — the “chase covers the box” flag stays the best case, not a promise.

Booster box FAQ
Should I open a Pokémon booster box or buy singles?
Open it if the box price is well below the value of the singles inside — or if one realistic chase pull covers the box. If the singles you actually want cost less bought individually, buy singles. This page shows both figures for every sealed box.
Does this use real pack pull rates?
Partly. The "expected pulls per box" figure comes from our pack model — the same rarity-slot odds that power the pack simulator — averaged over hundreds of simulated boxes. The "one chase hit covers the box" flag is still a best case, not a probability: expected value tells you the average box, variance decides your box.
How is a box's singles value worked out?
We sum CardTrack's blended market value of every card in the set, updated daily, and compare it to the current sealed box price.
