I think this is something that should be looked into since card drops are impossible.

Then go to the Suggestions / Ideas forum and suggest it.

I do not recall the last time I have seen a booster drop and I have read comments from people with Levels well above 1,000 getting once drop every 4 months.

While Level helps, it really comes down to how many games you have that are eligible (having obtain all card drops) and how popular the game is. Then it's all RNG, but those two factors will boost your chances.

I go months without seeing a single one and then I'll get two or three in quick succession. A friend of mine hasn't seen one in years. I always tease him when I get a new booster pack.

The prices for some cards are ridiculous.
I was looking to complete a foil badge but some cards are not only really expensive (Over $10) some flatout do not exist.

Well, yeah, their Foils. Foils have a 1% chance of dropping per card reveal. So scarcity causes values to rise. Demand for those cards also affect price more than non-foils.

Steam needs to investigate this and improve the drop rate drastically.

Eh... it's all working as intended.

I will go to the ideas and suggestion forums then.
But working as intended, I don't think so.
