Cost of basic card packs

[Fate]

So i'm still early into the game and noticed that the price of the 64 pack costs 1 cent more, plus the $50 license fee so my question is:

Is there any point in buying the bigger boxes if it costs more as well as a license fee on top than it would just buying the smaller size boxes?

I know it's only a cent more but buying in bulk is meant to be cheaper in general and that's without the license fee thrown on top. When you're early in the game you need every penny so It just makes it seem very pointless in buying the bigger sizes.


Am I missing something?

the savings you earn by getting the 64-count box is that you're paying less in shipping costs since you're only getting one shipment instead of two for the same amount of packs.

If you buy 2 boxes of 32 it still costs the same as a 64 box even with shipping tho

There is no difference in cost besides the 64 costing 1 cent more plus the upfront license fee for the pleasure

It probably just makes it easier for when u upgrade and get re-stockers, makes that process quicker and saves you time. They should make the bigger case sizes ever so slightly cheaper tho but i think my first thought is what they're thinking

I guess so but still seems strange, there should at least be some sort of saving as early game it can be hard to get a decent amount of money to spend on a product license that gives no real incentive to buy in the first place other than to save maybe, a couple seconds

You only start getting savings at 3 boxes, because at that point instead of base 5$ shipping, it becomes 2$ per box. so ordering 192 packs with 3x64 boxes will cost less than buying 192 pack with 6x32 boxes...

Ahh gotcha. That makes more sense

Never knew nor noticed that
