    That is not a Flash Sell pack. That is just a discounted Vault pack. Flash sells start in 3 min. 12:30, 1:30 and 2:30 PDT

    @chuckclc_MLBTS either way, worse than a casino, unacceptable for a game rated e for everyone.

    @Pergo_PSN it's a game rated e for everyone. If packs are a lottery the game is inherently flawed because it encourages children to gamble and lose worse than an actual casino

    The chase packs were just... decent. Actually made a few stubs before the market crashed instantly

    @Wildthingwilly_MLBTS Packs are not a lottery or gambling. With a lottery and gambling you are not guaranteed to get anything in return. With packs you are guaranteed to get something. They are a terrible use of stubs and I don't think there is any reason to buy packs, but it is not like a lottery or gambling.

    @Pergo_PSN the arguement of you get "something" is the arguement all of these companies use. If I play blackjack the casino has about a 2% edge if I play perfect basic strategy. Obviously there is variance so in a small sample size you can lose worse, but if you could theoretically play enough hands you should lose about 2% of your money. However mlb the show has odds of typically 1:5 for the expensive cards in packs, and that chance typically doubles your stubs. However 80% of the time you will lose 75% of your stubs, which will give you a worse return of investment on average than a casino even though you get "something" in return

    @chuckclc_MLBTS at the time I thought it was the flash sale because it released the free seasons awards pack at the same time. I pulled 2 85 gunnar Hendersons and 3 adleys. So 180k off of 125k isn't horrible ig. The vault packs are still horrid though and they should disclose the actual odds

    @chuckclc_MLBTS I have a decent amount of stubs but I'm just scared they won't go up bc the season is ending and that's a lot of stubs to tie up

    @Wildthingwilly_MLBTS Its been this way for years. They will at least profit 20-25K min if you git them for 64-66k. Might be too late now, not sure

    Like I said, buying packs is never really a wise use of stubs.

    @Pergo_PSN like I said, it's gambling. They disguise it by giving you "something"

    @Wildthingwilly_MLBTS Haha, ok, whatever makes you feel better about your poor decision in purchasing something that isn't worth it.
