Where are the Booster packs?
Ok, so first I'd like to say I'm a long time member of Steam, and a long time member of the trading card game. I know how it works, I have gotten multiple badges and booster packs, and have a few games. So no this isn't a FAQ question.

But the question I have is it's clear Booster packs get created when badges get crafted. But where are they? Since the steam sale started I've not seen a single booster pack drop. I think it's a safe assumption to say more badge crafting is being done this week for all types of badges than any other week, but the booster pack drop rate seems to have dropped to 0%. Has anyone else seen a booster pack? Am I just getting unlucky, or is there something going on where they're holding back a flood of booster packs?

I've gotten 2 since the sale started and I've never gotten drops so close together, usually only once a month or a bit longer. You should also keep in mind that many if not most of the people crafting are making the summer badge which has no boosters to drop.

YOu do know trading cards about getting you to spend money on the market. Dont expect to get many. They want the percentage from sales to make money hats and cloaks for the office.

I just hit level 10 this morning and got one shortly after. I guess I'm just lucky? From what I read it's not common to get them.

A booster pack is awarded for each 10 levels, in addition to random booster packs. You'll receive one at 20, 30, 40, etc. This is my experience. It happens every time, so I find it odd that some gamers with level 50 have yet to get a booster pack. You need to login every week or so to keep yourself eligible.

I have never, ever, never got one. Never. Not Ever. Im lvl 16, so Im probably too small time for Steam to send any cards my way.

Im logged in multiple times every single day.
