I find it hilarious how people always bring this up but have no issue with the even less intelligent “peoples kids” selling you the card at a the bid your putting in.... Shouldn’t all the market gurus be getting on those guys? Taking offers instead of listing a sell order at -1 of the current price seems even more foolish but I haven’t seen that complaint in 5 years.
They are selling it at my bid because they want the stubs, "now now". If i wanted it "now now" i would buy at their price. But it happens over there too. I am trying to get someone to buy my card for $4,000 and instead of someone going down to $3,999 to sell theirs first, they go to $3,000.... leaving $999 stubs on the table and forcing someone else to put the next lowest card at $2,999 to get their own bought first.
Both ways are hilarious. One way, people are spending more stubs than they need to, and another way they are leaving stubs on the table. #economics
That’s true in theory but hear me out. The overbids and underbids are extremely close to “now now” and that’s what people who do this like myself are trying to achieve. I over bid quite often but not at a foolish extreme, I just don’t consider 4000 - 4300/4500 a foolish extreme. Buying him for 5200 would be, as would selling him for 4001 when I can instantly get 4800. People still do both when they could essentially achieve “sell now” or “buy now” at a much better rate in almost the exact same time. At the end of it all I take a 400 stubs loss that I’ve earned back during a showdown that I get to play while not bidding so I make that choice more often than not.
If you want to talk comedy, the guys bidding 71,002 on a downgraded 92 Dwight Evans when there’s a 99 for 22,500 take the crown, Honus collection or not I can smell the Mountain Dew from here.
I am that guy with highest bid on Dwight Evans. I have every card in game, why not get him? I make 75,000-100,000stubs flipping each day. What's another 71,002.
Bro you’re supposed to help me with flipping I messaged you -

There has to be dumb people for others to profit. Just remember all the sell now orders being completed by people that are actually just pressing sell now. I have only done this like once by mistake, and was furious.
Not a question of smarts or lack of them, it's patience and ppls lack of it.
Sort of, but if your bid of $4,001 puts you in the front row, why would you instead put $5,000? I don't know, doesn't matter because I can't change everyone's ways, but in my opinion the matter is more of an intelligence/lack of saving stubs issue.
Because they might not be looking to resell, they could think it would completefaster, they do it to discourage others from outbidding them

Its because I don't want to have to babysit my bid all day. If I put a high bid in it'll hopefully stop you from bidding 1 more than me and causing me to have to sit there on the market changing my bid every 30 seconds.

Because that person that bid $4000 will then immediately come back at bid $4002. And you wont be first anymore. Where as if you bid $4500 or $5000, chances are they wont out bid you, rather they will wait for your order to leave so they can get it cheaper because maybe they are flipping. Thats how it works.

Hopefully spring and summer were as irrelevant as that 71002 stubs because 16-18 hours a day flipping virtual cards has totally paid off!!

I spent alot of time in the auction house.i do this only when I know a card is selling way lower than normal like thousands less.i know after looking at one particular item it always drops real low for a couple days then shoots right back up an gets me 4k+ in profit.i had 57 of one thing when the last market crash happened an it just got back up close to what it usually sells for and made alot of stubs I'm at 1.4 million in stubs an most of it is just from this one item..so.if someone puts 12300 in buy order knowing what I know and always see I have no problem putting 13000 above that one an usually when there's a big difference like that someone usually jumps and sells me the card quickly
