Sadly the data is mostly from the previous seasons but nonetheless. I collected the data from 87 draws and put them into a sheet. Then I calculated how much real money we had to spent (with maximum discounts and assuming an infinite free treasure cabinet):



The result is ~32 euro per crystal/day.

In season 4 (due to recently retiring a lot of crystal-generating-treasures...) the chances for starting/building a crystal engine are probably much worse. But I don't know how much. I would require a lot of treasure-draw-results from season 4 for that.

But assuming you need around 30 crystals/day from your crystal engine with pre-season 4 statistics, you would have to spend 962.40 euro (~38022.86 baht) ... Assuming season 4 is much worse than that... It's basically not worth buying treasures unless you also require other treasures for coin farming or for high-scoring.

Note that I have no recordings of a "Translucent Crystal Alarm Clock" & "Giant Crystal Ring" dropping. I also expected the crystal earrings to drop much more often. However, my data-pool is relatively small.

''Note that people paying with euro's have to pay more because it seems that Apple converts dollars to euros on a 1:1 ratio... Bastards...''

''Note that it's more efficient to buy the supreme package every month instead of crystals from the shop. But only if you already own the cookie & pet listed there. You get slightly less crystals but you get 7 guaranteed S-treasures AND you get 8000 magic powder which in the end are more valuable than the (max) 272 crystals difference.''
