How much is a golden Pack worth?
» Worst Outcome
If you are unlucky, each pack will contain four common and one rare card. This outcome equals 300 dust, so in 1800 dust for 6 Packs. » 120 Dust per $
» Regular Outcome
These numbers are just an estimation, but will most likely be near to the real numbers.
For six-packs, you will get 30 cards, with common, rare, epic, and legendary expected proportions of 71.3%, 23.15%, 4.51%, and 1.01%, respectively. Using the current dust values for goldens of each rarity, you should expect to get on average about 2353 dust from these packs. (Thanks to DoctorShemp)

If you can get one golden Legendary, your value is almost 3400 Dust. » 227 Dust per $
Should you buy it?
A lot of the Bundles in the past offered you Bundles for $0.67 per pack, which equals about 150 Dust per $.
Looking at those numbers, the value for this bundle is pretty good – we recommend buying it if you look for excellent value, and not for new cards.
