Sell or exchange my gift pack?

I was thinking to create a small calculation and summarize about the gift packs.

1 gift pack contains:

- 2 Gold
- 10 Winter Treats
- 5 Icy Bazookas

vs.

"selling/buying gift packs for 2500cc/each"

Let's see the value of the gift pack:

a)
2 gold = 2 gold

b)
10 Winter Treats = 5 Energy Bars

Calculating by +200 Energy Bar in the Gold & Extras
1 EB = 2,5 gold
5 EB = 12,5 gold

Calculating by +1000 Energy Bar in the Gold & Extras
1 EB = 2,2 gold
5 EB = 11 gold

Calculating by +2000 Energy Bar in the Gold & Extras
1 EB = 1,95 gold
5 EB = 9,75 gold

5 EB's average: 11,08 gold

2 gold + 11,08 gold = 13,08

30% discount

Calculating by +200 Energy Bar in the Gold & Extras
1 EB = 1,75 gold
5 EB = 8,75 gold

Calculating by +1000 Energy Bar in the Gold & Extras
1 EB = 1,54 gold
5 EB = 7,7 gold

Calculating by +2000 Energy Bar in the Gold & Extras
1 EB = 1,38 gold
5 EB = 6,88 gold

5 EB's average: 7,78 gold

2 gold + 7,78 gold = 9,78 gold

Normal price and discount average: 11,43

c)
5 Icy Bazooka

It's hard to calculate, I can't use the price of bazooka parts, because the damage of Icy Bazooka is much harder than the normal bazookas and it's not buyable anyway.

Summary

2500 cc is 7,14 gold by the Monetary Market

Gift pack value: 13,08 gold or 9,78 gold (11,43 gold in average)

So if I even consider the lowest value of a Gift Pack, it still worths to exchange Gift Packs than selling them. The difference is almost 3 gold per pack. Minimum...

Nice article.
But gifts are for being gifted, not sold. Enjoy gifting and sharing. Don't make of this a bussnes.

Rican Day 2,945, 15:15

thank you

nimnul Day 2,945, 15:17

seems reasonable

CatBea Day 2,945, 15:21

well done

atsibodo Day 2,945, 15:22

Most of this articles are pointless.. Why to count how many costs EB when there is no discount or those 1, 5 EB packs?
Price of single EB is 1,365 gold. Not more, not less. Why? Because 27.30 gold / 10x2 EB = 27.30 / 20 = 1,365 gold.

So 5 EB in this GIFT would cost 6,825g.
+2g = 8,825.
5 bazookas? (15 shots).. Let's say it worth as 2 Q7 weapons.. 35cc.

ONE Q Day 2,945, 15:28

thats a much better calculate

Rhual Day 2,946, 14:23

I wanted to note the best option only but I decided to involve all, because there are probably players who buy EBs in the period without discount.

The main point is not the calculation of the price of EB, but the final summary.

Treats have an expiration date, money does not 🙂

Rhual Day 2,946, 14:26

Ofc its not usable for those who are definitely not active, so for them, it rather worths to sell them.

The rest will probably use the Treats in before the expiration
