Collector Crypt's storefront shows 24 machines. Their API returns 51.
One of the ones you can't see is named, by them, “exclusive low ev.” We measured it.
Collector Crypt's gacha page lists two dozen machines. We ask their API for the full roster and get 51 — of which 24 are flagged public. The other 27 don't appear on the storefront, and as far as we can tell you cannot reach them at all: the deep link we publish gets stripped down to the homepage, and adding the pack code to the URL by hand does nothing. They aren't listed, and they aren't linkable.
They are, however, being opened. Across the 14 unlisted machines we track, at least $1.66M of packs were opened in 30 days. Four of them account for almost all of it: $550,000 through a $2,500 Snorlax machine, $547,500 through a $250 Charizard one, $330,500 and $186,060 through two more. We say “at least” because 27 are unlisted and we only track 14 — the real figure is larger, and we won't guess by how much.
Now the part that made us write this up. One of these machines carries a name Collector Crypt gave it, and the name is “exclusive low ev, high potential win.” That's not our label. It's the string their own API returns.
So we measured it, because a name proves nothing. Its house edge comes out at −10.30% — the worst of any machine on our board, and 1.8× the −5.70% median of the packs that are listed. On a $100 pack you're handing over about $10.30 a pull, against roughly $5.70 on a typical listed one. Their name for it is accurate. We can't tell you their intent. We can tell you the number agrees with the label.
Two things we are not saying, because both are tempting and neither is supported. First, unlisted does not mean secret: one of these machines is sold openly on Jupiter as a headline pack, so for some of them “not on Collector Crypt's storefront” just means “sold through a partner instead.” Second, we can't tell you unlisted packs are systematically worse. They lean that way — a −6.49% median against −5.70% — but that's nine machines, and a listed pack beats an unlisted one about a third of the time. That's a pattern, not a finding, and we'd rather label it honestly than dress it up.
What we did about it: we pulled the unreachable ones off our board — seven machines that were showing an “Open on Collector Crypt” button leading to a page where they don't exist. Not because the data is bad; it's some of the most interesting data we have. But a card on our board is an invitation to go open something, and an invitation you can't accept isn't a service. The ones you genuinely can open stayed — including, as it happens, the “low ev” machine itself, which is one of the two sold through Jupiter. You can still find that one. Now you know what it costs you.
Method, 2026-08-02: roster and public flags from Collector Crypt's own machine API (51 returned, 24 public); 30-day volumes are our recorded pull ledger multiplied by each machine's pack price, so they are gross player spend and not site revenue; house edge is model EV ÷ price − 1 from the same live board payload we publish. Machine name quoted verbatim from the API's name field. Edge comparison: 9 unlisted vs 22 listed machines.
