Biggest overspend from March

Yeah, I’m too stupid for that.
I’m gonna go with LS George Springer, 12,800 stubs. 3/19/2020 12:58:56. -
On 3/21 I purchased Acuna for 51k. Only for him to do horribly for me haha
-
I bought Baez for 31000k and bought degrom for 55k

128k for Nolan and 28k for Trevor. This is after selling my first Trout for 289k, completing the Rockies in less than 1 hour of the games release.

Arenado was my first big buy of the year at 77; wanted him based on performance with him last year but at that time a pretty good deal. Used him all year so got my moneys worth.
Worst pickup was Matt Chapman for 17,000. Think I was completing TA collections at that time.

I love that you got Trout before an hour release.
I will go and look. I know that I spent 40K on Javy. -

Go back to your very first few pages of completed orders. What is one purchase that stands out as egregiously bad?
I'll go first.

Wait, are you serious? Look at the time stamp. That would be really funny! I mean, I am sure that if everyone showed their completed orders, we have sold to each other quite often.
IDEA: What if, when you sold or bought something, it would say: "Mike Trout was bought from @Ikasnu for 4958302 stubs. (Then the timestamp)"
Same idea for selling something, say who bought it. That would be fun to see if we know who we are buying/selling from. Thoughts? -
i bought Lindor for almost 50k... yikes!
-
Javy Baez for 34k is the first one that comes up that's over 10k purchase on 3/13
Yelich for 60k on 3/14 is probably worse.
-
Nothing outrageous. I completed the Phillies collection after pulling Harper & Realmuto. Nola was the biggest bill at 1051.
Other than that ...77 stubs on a daily mission for Oswalt when I eventually ended up with over 600* that inning?
-
I bought Sale for 45k or so. I don't want to look back because I will see all of the Postseason cards that I was using for TA exchanges when they were 5k and then jumped up when Trout came out. I wish I had a few of those set aside for another TA when Trout came out. This is my first year playing the game, and the market has been an interesting thing to watch and learn. Of course it was a season unlike any other so things will probably be completely different next year.
-
No big ones this year, but in 17 I spent 70k on Cespedes only for him to go gold 2 days later
-
Aroldis Chapman for 25k (he's going for 5k now)
-
Bought Jose Ramirez for 15.5k which I believe was gold at the time.

WOW. That is INSANE! Did people think he was going diamond?

First week or so it’s not uncommon for high golds to be around 10k. There just isn’t a lot out there at first.
-
304k for LS Trout. I Paid 29950 for Lindor in May. Yeah, I paid a premium for lots of LS diamonds early on.
-
It wasn’t March, but shortly after the Headliner pack came out I paid approximately 70k for AS Miggy Cabrera because I needed him for a league I was in.
I’m not even in that league anymore so it hurts a little worse. Haha
