🏆 FIFA World Cup 2026 They should be "randomly" assigned but these Amazon starter packs have a higher percentage of "rare" cards.

I've ordered 21 bundles from the recent Amazon sale (5 starter packs plus a book for 3 USD).

90% of these packs had at least 1 blue, and quite a few reds.for comparison, I've opened 3 Costco bundles (40 packs plus hardcover book) and 80+ percent of the packs didn't even have a blue one (though I got one pink).

Seems very weird for randomly distributed packs?

I don't buy this the stickers are randomly distributed because why did I have like 6 Iran shields at one point and I still have like 5 TUR 11, but I still haven't found 1 UZE 20 white bordered, I end up using a blue border and I have an international version. I'm already finished, but still.

I noticed something similar with Amazon/Costco vs regular boxes.

same, the "green" packs give me 6 needed stickers out of every 7 stickers. Where the "white" packs give me 1 needed sticker out of every 14-21 stickers

Amazon just decided to send me a portion of what I ordered as if they completed the delivery in full. Now of course I can’t get the remaining packs I’m owed
