    No idea why they are mixing preview and non preview packs, but not touching a non preview pack even during futties.

    They're trying to figure out if people go for a non-preview pack if the preview only shows garbage inside it.

    It's just market testing.

    Fekir 88 Toty nominee who goes for 30k all the rest 81 and under. Another great preview pack from EA.

    Bought them all blindly.
    Value about the same as the cost.

    After selling the players i came up with 20k on the top.
    That 89 RB David Silva with 71k in discard value saved my butt.

    My first pack that was worth buying for me since the preview packs started.

    This. 100% this.

    I'd bet money that they're finding that people are still rinsing their wallets on blind packs after getting a rubbish player in the preview pack.

    Of course, that's the gambler's logic. The next one is the pay off. In fact, seeing the rubbish preview pack can reinforce that.

    Don't think am gonna bother checking these anymore as it's just utter garbage you see it's criminal what EA put in these packs and actually charge money for it.

    88 Harvey Barnes and 86 Pique in the 2 x 25k preview packs. Break even roughly.

    Yep, 100%. I, sadly, know people that do exactly this. "They couldn't possibly give me two 100k packs that just have an 82 as the best card...I'd better just buy this one and get it out of the way so I can see the DEFINITE ICON PLAYER I'm going to get in the next one.

    Oh look, another 82."

    88 Handanovic, EA you simply must stop with your generous pack weight.

    Got a 91 Pogba sitting in the 70K, so that's break even at least. Need to clear my dupe pile to buy it though!

    Do EA actually mark people’s accounts? I mean. Played all year, never packed an icon never packed a top card, never got a decent red pick. I just thought that after playing from day 1 I might have actually got something
