Strategies for Collecting and Selling Booster Packs[edit | edit source]

To succeed in TCG Card Shop Simulator, players must manage booster packs effectively, balancing their stock with customer demand.

Stock Management[edit | edit source]

Stocking Shelves: Keeping a variety of packs in stock helps cater to different customer preferences. Players should ensure shelves are stocked with both common packs for casual customers and rare packs for collectors.
Tracking Inventory: Use the game’s inventory system to monitor the stock levels of each pack type. Selling out of high-demand packs can impact customer satisfaction, so players should reorder frequently.

Pricing Strategies[edit | edit source]

Setting competitive prices for each pack type is essential. Here are some pricing tips:

Adjust Prices by Demand: Increase prices for rare and in-demand packs during events.
Offer Discounts on Common Packs: Reducing prices on common packs can attract newer players and increase foot traffic.
Premium Pricing for Limited Editions: Limited Edition and Event Packs can be sold at a premium, especially if their availability is limited.

Opening Packs vs. Selling Sealed Packs[edit | edit source]

Players can either sell booster packs as sealed products or open them to collect individual cards.

Opening Packs for Rares: Opening packs yourself increases the chance of obtaining rare cards that can be sold individually for a higher profit.
Selling Sealed Packs: Sealed packs attract collectors who prefer to open them for the chance of obtaining exclusive cards.

Notable Cards and High-Value Collectibles[edit | edit source]

Some cards are particularly valuable due to their rarity, design, or gameplay effects. Here are a few examples:

"Dragon’s Fury" (Epic Tetramon): Known for its powerful attack stats, this card is highly desirable for competitive players.
"Golden Phoenix" (Legendary Destiny): A visually striking card with high value among collectors.
