Should Bulk Boxes Cost More?
I feel like I'm losing a lot of money if the bulk boxes go for around $15. To break even the cards need to be worth less than 15 cents, which I don't think there are enough cards to make the boxes worth the investment.

I looked at it as just a way to mitigate losses while you're treasure hunting for the valuable cards.

You aren't "losing" money unless you have 100 card tables and are putting out 50 cent cards. You already paid for those and they are just sitting in your binder, so the $15 dollars is just pure profit. That said, unless it gets quicker and I can do multiple boxes at once I quit using it and ate the loss selling it back. Too much time and space used.

Once you get far enough in.. You wont be putting any cards out for sale that are less than $20. So everything that is below $1.00 will never get sold and will just build up so selling even just for $10 is perfectly fine.
In the end, you card parks end up getting paid for by the high value cards you pull, if you manage to pull a $10k+ card and sell it then it really pays for about ~3,000 parks, everything else you sell if a bonus

I don't find bulk boxes worth the effort. In my game they only sell for $10, and I don't know if the "minimum cards left" bug is still present, so I'm just holding out for a way to sell cheap bulk singles.

Bulk boxes are not "cost effective" in the sense you are thinking. They are a tool to get rid of extra cards that have a low cost because unless you feel like setting out EVERY SINGLE card and price them all, the cards sit there not earning anything. If you think you will actually sit there and put EACH idividual card out on a card table then yes you are loosing out but unless that is your intent then you are loosing more money not selling anything at all.

Bulk is cheap in game and in real life. IRL you can spend as little as 5 dollars on 1000 cards and the creators are good about sticking to reality in some cases. This is one of them, basically anything under $10 is only really worth selling as bulk. If you followed real life more in this game then the bulk boxes would earn you maybe 6-8 dollars.

I've noticed that Bulk Boxes will have different prices fixed to them for different slots on the shelf.

For instance you can bulk load basic cards and put them in one section for $10 and then bulk load say Legendary only and place them on the shelf for more money.

The only problem is the market price remains the same. I haven't tried to sell them for more yet to test if they will be bought by customers for a higher price.

Bulk cards definitely needs a little work.

Yeah but you should be able to sell Bulk Legendary cards for more dollars. If its not mixed.
