I agree basically all the specials have become awful deals, they used to have some decent deals but they've slowly made them more money or less value. The only decent ones are the beginner ones, like the Rancor bundle or lightside/darkside bundles, but many of us don't need them.
And the 5-330 shard ones for Crystals are just pointless, Those ones are kind of mean not telling the chances. Still remember the first time I got the mega Fleet pack 2500 crystals down the drain. They could atleast warn people that anything over 10 shards is rare. When I saw 5-100 I figured there was the same chance to get any number between 5-100 so should get atleast one 50 with 8 cards.
I would really like to see different shard pacts for Crystals some that aren't huge gambles, if enough of us say so maybe they would change it. But I don't expect the pacts for money will change
