Khans Booster Box
Economics forum

Since the fetchlands came out of khans, would it be worth it to buy a booster box of it? Like what are the chances of opening 4+ fetches in a box? Is it common to do so?

I dont know Atony1400, my second booster box for Khans held 7 fetches in it. 3 Polluted Delta, 1 Flooded Strand, 2 Wooded Foothills, and a foil Bloodstained Mire. Granted it was amazing but obviously not everyone will get the same results so it is, like every (semi randomized) sealed product anyone ever buys for M:tG, a gamble.
ninjaclevs13 the real question is whether or not you feel the set has enough value to justify getting the booster box?

If you want to buy a box of KTK at this point, buy it with the intent of sitting on it. As it is soon no longer standard, and no longer being printed, demand will go up because people will be looking to pull fetches from it. In a couple years, it could easily be worth 1.5x what you bought it for or more, depending on when the ZEN fetches get reprinted.

TheHroth has a point. It all depends on if the ZEN fetches get a reprint. It will probably go up anyway, because of the fetches.

I believe the average number of fetches per box was around 2-3. So if you only want fetches, you probably should just buy them. If you enjoy the gamble or enjoy getting the extra cards/drafting, then the box is likely a good idea.

Not likely. It's possible, but unlikely to pull that many. (I got 1 from mine). It's better to buy fetches directly.
