Well, back when we still got new DLC's, lot of people saved credits to get new stuff faster.
But now, it's just matter of personal preference. I like to collect lot of of credits first, promote all 6 classes and then start buying packs. This way all the all characters cards are useful.
Well I have all weapons maxed and 81k challenge points(top1%). I'm just trying to stick up on level 3 AR and SMG amps, and level 3 Adrenaline. I have been experimenting by the off chance that the game will feel sorry for me if I sit in a plat lobby with level 2 equipments on hoping maybe the game will be like "hmmm this is plat, lets dish out some level 3s of what he's trying to use."
But I'm pretty sure it's completely random. Aside from the Jumbo packs; I seriously think the more credits you have banked and buying just jumbos consecutively it like gives you a small small percentage bonus towards increasing your chances of getting uncommons(weapon amp 3s and such). Like maybe if you're in a spending spree on just jumbos, it may increase your chances of getting uncommons by like 5% for every 5 to 10 packs you by consecutively. Same with the pity theory I described earlier. Some of wanna give it a shot n let me know what you think? Sit in plat lobby with all level 2 consumables equipped - I do it with AR amp 2s and adrenaline 2s. Then go on at least a million spending spree on JUST JUMBO PACKS. It really does seem to give me considerably more level 3s of the level 2s I equip. I really think there's something there, give it shot! Let me know what you think. I've also tried it when buying PSPs for AP ammo 4s and incendiary 4s, by sitting in play with level 3s of those.
Buy Spectre for lvl 3 amps, not jumbos.

Well, Spectre Packs guarantee you 3 Level III items, unless you get a character card or need consumables. Jumbo Packs seem to drop an average of 2 Level III items (it's between 0 and 5 per pack as far as I can tell - wonder if Mgamerz knows the drop rates?) and they cost 1/3, so I think they are still the better buy for Level II stuff.
I just do it because I'm more likely to get an Ultra Rare if I spend 2 million credits than if I spend 100 000. In the end, I won't have any more Ultra Rares than I would if I spend them in 20 different sessions, but I avoid having 15-18 sessions where I feel like I didn't accomplish anything.
It may be primarily psychological, but that's still a valid reason to do it.

It's 4 lvl 3 items - apart from the character drops.
I try saving credits...but ... I am 110 hours in on a brand new manifest for the PS3....so..I forgot about how greedy I am.... I want everything..NAOW.
I pretty much only buy Spectre packs...once I get up to the 140k mark..I spend...gotta get that instant gratification for matches played.
...damn you character cards..I forgot how many there were
I just looked at my xbox manifest & I have 680k just sitting there for nothing....anger rising.......
Other than the maximizing rank III and IV consumable drop by first topping off consumables with JEPs tactic others have mentioned, the other reason I stockpile credits instead of spending them after each game is that the store is dirt slow. At least if I'm spending millions off lobby I'm not holding anyone up. Nothing worse than some guy who holds up a lobby for 5 minutes because the store is worse than usual working as intended.

You're quite right, clearly it's been a while since I bought a Spectre Pack, so I was thinking PSP, sorry.
Even so, my informal statistics suggest that you'd get (on average) about 6 Level III items for your 99k by buying JEPs. And you have to buy those until your consumables are maxed out anyway, right?
Specter cost 60k and I do not remember level III stuff dropping guaranteed in Jumbos. Often they don't drop at all. For 60k you get 3-4 lvl 3 reliably + 1 lvl 4. Now if you tell me warp ammo drops more often in JEPs that'd be a thing.

As I said, I derped by thinking of PSPs. But now my curiosity is piqued, I may have to buy 100 JEPs and see how many Level III items drop.
And the only thing that no pack ever wants to drop for me is AR Amp III's. Jamais.

I did some rudimentary math for the basic "price" of the items some time ago on it and determined specter was best because I also want lvl 4 stuff. If you only go for lvl 3 stuff that may look different. But why would you not want lvl 4 stuff?

I would definitely like some AR Amp IV's, please 
After a few thousands of hours of play I descovered that space magic can set directly those pistol III amps and warp ammo IV (and even respec cards) to 255

I'm not gonna bend over to Starbrat if that is the space magic you refer to!
