Either way, you will lose much more than you win on average, so go with how much you can afford to burn.

Weird how standards sell out first, but I always have luck with the premiums

Flippers like em more since they have more items to sell. Normally selling 3 standard packs nets them more $ than a single premium pack.

Ahh ok, thanks for the info. Makes sense if not really trying to collect. Got a few of both packs today and no luck on standard but lucked out again on the premiums

Re: Standard or Premium Packs
I would go with premium because you get a better chance because you have more cards in the pack

If you buy 3 standard it's the same number of cards and same price

Re: Standard or Premium Packs
So far I would like to think premium. I did terrible with the Nick2 but it was a mixture of premium and standard. However, I did pull the grail for Sid & Marty Krofft from a standard.

To be honest I'm confused why it's called premium. The only premium that make sense before is the TMNT they have extra 2 cards compared to standard

Premium is easier to get I think coz reseller always goes for standard.

Re: Standard or Premium Packs
I prefer Premium for opening, but if I need to sell or trade packs.... I will prefer Standard.

Standard is the best IMO. Gives you an extra shot for a 1 of 1!

I seem to have the best luck with Premiums but I've seen people pull absolute fire from Standards.

Or maybe because when you look at your inventory it looks nicer to see 6 packs sitting there instead of just 2.

this is more tin foil hat here. but i feel that stand packs sell out first because it's all the people who say they hate that funko does nft's, but see that they do send out real pops, and it becomes gotta be in it to win it, and will just buy one pack to try and hit a redeemable

Re: Standard or Premium Packs
The odds of pulling a grail or legendary are the same for both however I think psychologically you think that if you have more packs you think you have a better chance cause its a new pack everytime than with the premium packs
