Ok, so how much profit should I generally get if I pull good cards from RTR?

ibtrickey

I agree with rtr
I pulled abrupt decay, deathrite, steam vents, blood crypt, overgrown tomb. And tons of other awesome things in mine

Just don't want to pull terrible cards and waste the money

Any box is like that.. I bought a box of innistrad for $185 a while ago and pulled nothing, cards added up to $50 all together. Wasted money. It happens

But generally I will pull some good cards

If you're going to take away anything from this, DO NOT by a box of BnG. Simply buy Brimaz. You will waste so much money. If you want a box, rtr for days. It's still in print, so it's somewhat cheaper than an older set, and there's so much value in it I've seen plenty of individuals walk away with profit. You could probably buy a box, sell off the stuff you don't want, and buy Brimaz with that.

Your chances of pulling a {Brimaz, King of Oreskos} in a Born pack= 1/80. Even if you bought 2 boxes, it is quite likely that you don't get one.

Well...I bought a Russian and Japanese box
brimaz in each
All the lands
Half the gods
But no kiora or her emblems :(

Couldn't even finish all my tokens in japanese

It's all luck of the pull

I always buy a box of a new set and then with the exception of drafts, I don't buy another booster pack. I use the stuff I don't want from the box as trade fodder and just buy singles after that.

I like this plan.

Booster all the way
More likely to pull amazing stuff because it's random and that's how you normally get from store

Fat packs have the tendency to be fixed when they make them
I havnt pulled anything good from a pack but boxes I've gotten wonderful stuff

Mr_Fahrenheit

That is complete garbage. All booster packs are random, whether they appear in boxes or fat packs. Just because you haven't got anything decent out of them doesn't mean the other 2 million people that buy them haven't. Get one or the other depending on the value of booster packs in your area and how many you actually want. You aren't more likely to pull something good from one over the other.
