# Sales Model

**Our basic unit of sales is a pack of 5 NFTs.** 

There will be a total of 1,954 such packs. The collection will be sold in **four stages**, each containing one quarter of the entire collection (with a margin of one pack of 5 NFTs). 

*Each Phase will begin shortly after the previous one has minted out, with the **Whitelist mints being applicable for every Phase.*** 

1. **Stage One** starts at ₳50 per pack, *while all subsequent stages' prices will incrementally increase by ₳20, thus:*
2. **Stage Two**: ₳70. 
3. **Stage Three**: ₳90. 
4. **Stage Four**: ₳110. 

Once **Stage One** has minted out, **Stage Two** will begin shortly after, and so on.\
\
Each stage will contain every scientist portrait belonging to the following Tiers: Bronze, Silver and Gold. **However, Legendary scientists will be distributed evenly over all four stages, meaning that in each stage it will only be possible to acquire one quarter of Legendary scientists.** 

With this strategy implemented two things happen: \
\
Firstly, holders of Bronze, Silver or Gold Tier NFTs will be free to use the first interactive feature of Event Horizon - [**The Storifier**](https://ehnft.gitbook.io/whitepaper/interactive-features/the-storifier) - to begin to progress throughout the [**Season One Story**](https://ehnft.gitbook.io/whitepaper/the-event-horizon-story/the-plot) or even reveal the entire story leading up to the conclusion - unlocked by completing [**The Combobulation**](https://ehnft.gitbook.io/whitepaper/the-combobulation) **-** the project's community-collaboration reliant crown feature**,** building their [**Story Log**](https://ehnft.gitbook.io/whitepaper/interactive-features/the-storifier/the-story-log) and thus **unlocking various story-progression related** [**Achievements.**](https://ehnft.gitbook.io/whitepaper/incentive-systems/achievements)

Secondly, since each phase contains only a portion of [The Protagonists](https://ehnft.gitbook.io/whitepaper/the-event-horizon-story/the-protagonists)' portraits in the Legendary variant, **there is no chance for all the high-value tokens to get minted early on, thus making each pack worth minting up until the last one.**\
\
Holders will be able to participate in all [Achievement Challenges](https://ehnft.gitbook.io/whitepaper/incentive-systems/achievements) that do not require unreleased Legendary scientists. Throughout all four stages, holders will be free to engage with the second interactive feature as well - **The Combobulation** - which represents the disentanglement and resolution of the entire story, *however* it will only become completely solvable at the end of Stage Four, when all Legendary Tier scientists have been released, revealing all possible **Clue Glyphs**. \
\
\&#xNAN;*Note: In theory, it is possible to solve* [*The Combobulation*](https://ehnft.gitbook.io/whitepaper/the-combobulation) *without all the **Code Glyphs** deciphered, albeit significantly more difficult.*
