Sold Some Wrist Braces On Ebay, Bought 10 Steem Monsters Packs, Did Worse...
(Edited)
Ah man, this lot was even worse than my last one if you can believe it. It's not surprising though, because it looks like a regression to the mean. Despite the recent poor drops, I am still getting a better return than I did over the course of the Beta, but my sample size is comparatively small.
The Pyromaniac was the best card that dropped. Everything else was filler and didn't really move the needle. Nothing got upgraded.
Tally so far for purchased untamed packs.
Packs: 65 (325 Cards)
Cost: $130
Market Price: $84.19
ROI: ~ -35%

If you buy untamed packs on steemengine you can get them cheaper but without getting airdrops.
What i cant understand is why do people sell them cheaper? Seen some for about $1.00 last week and $1.38 today.
What am i missing?
I get them there too from time to time. But it's just kind of a fun experiment to translate ebay into SM cards without using a crypto exchange, and I'm using any liquid steem to upgrade my Beta cards.
I think people who funded the kickstarter in the top tiers are probably selling them at that price.
Also DEC prices flucuate so people can to arbitrage using steem-engine. Buy a ton of packs when DEC value is cheap and sell the packs back at a profitable price to gain either more DEC or Steem. Just past couple of days DEC was worth upward of $0.008
