Published payout odds
Fanatics Collect publishes odds by value band, not per card — and it recomputes them live, from the cards still left in the pack.
Fanatics publishes one table per pack — no volatility selector. It is recomputed from the cards left in the pool, so it moves as the pack is ripped.

Odds transcribed from Fanatics Collect's in-app “Odds and expected value” screens, captured 2026-09-16. The app states odds are “calculated in real time at the time of purchase and subject to change”.
Cards from this pack
We have this pack's odds straight from the app, but we haven't finished cataloguing the individual cards it features yet. Those go up as we capture them — each with its grade, certification number and the value band it falls into.
What Fanatics tells you before you buy
Fanatics is the only app we review that prints its own expected value on the buy screen, and the only one that names cards and prices them. Both figures below are its own — we checked them against each other rather than taking them on trust.
Consistent with its own odds table.
A true mean has to land between $187.98 — every pull at the bottom of its band — and $279.96, every pull at the top. Fanatics' figure sits inside that range, 43% of the way up.

These 3 tiers partition the pull — they sum to 100%. The cards listed are a sample: each tier hides the rest behind a “Show more”, so this is not the full contents.
5 of these 12 named cards are priced outside their own tier's stated range. The furthest out is 1993 Stadium Club Beam Team Shaquille O'Neal #1 PSA 8 NM-MT at $250, in a Base tier Fanatics bounds at $200 — 25% past it. Fanatics' own disclaimer covers this — values are market data that “may fluctuate”, and the odds are recomputed live — so it is not a contradiction so much as a moving target. Read the tier range as a guide, not a bound.
Fanatics' own wording on how these odds are set
“Odds are determined by dividing the number of cards available within each price tier by the total number of cards available in the pack. Odds are dynamic, may change as cards are revealed and market prices are updated, and are accurate as of the time the page is loaded or refreshed.”
Captured 2026-09-16. Because the pool depletes as people rip, every number on this page is a timestamp, not a constant.
