    Have 12,000+ completed orders - 26 pages of sell now stuff going back a month and a half. Made like 50k today not even turning on the game. 🙂

    Okay well I lost three RS games in a row and made twice that.

    If someone can come up with some actual numbers or proof or market manipulation or RNG I will gladly admit I was wrong and apologize to everyone I called crazy. Considering there has never been anything remotely close to evidence proving either I stand by calling it a crazy conspiracy theory.

    MAYBE a conspiracy theory, but def not some crazy thought beyond belief. Remember this is a business first before anything, and to think they would not do anything in their power that is untraceable to the consumer to maximize profits you would have to be living under a rock.

    A peep? No. A tree crashing is more of a thud. Does anyone hear? Sure if they are within earshot. Did this post make me think? Not really.

    I dont put anything past someone with money symbols in their eyes but I don't really think they are manipulating the prices on bronzes/silvers to try and get people to buy stubs.

    Bronzes and silvers, MAYBE not, but they do manipulate aspects of the game on certain 'schedules'...like diamond upgrades

    I dont know if I'd call it manipulation but they definitely have a bias as far as upgrades go. Yankees, Dodgers, Padres tend to have to do less to get upgrades while guys like Alex Reyes and a bunch of other players deserving of upgrades take forever to get updated. Zack Wheeler took longer than he should've to go diamond, Trevor Rogers took forever to go gold etc.

    I don't want to go over 5 million this weekend .... I need to stash about 1 million into Mike Trout Cards at 250k tonight like George Jung in the movie Blow.

    0-0 Ranked record and every WR and BR card x2

    When it comes to other things "SDS is dumb and can do nothing right!" But they have an advanced bot system buying and selling cards on the marketplace for some unknown reason. What? To make you pay a couple hundred stubs more for a bat? lol

    Well RNG is the foundation of every video game. There has to be RNG for it to work correctly. So no-one questions that.

    C'mon man! You can't make this claim and then not follow it up with your hypothesis, which will probably be comedy gold! Please enlighten us!

    Use more dots between thoughts to emphasize the importance of education so you don't grow to middle age and think this is a good way to start a debate. To prove you wrong I would have to care about you first. If you are anything like the Canadian who started the "prove me wrong" nonsense you maybe too childish to learn.

    You responded, you cared.

    While I was debating buying Bellinger & Betts for the Dodgers collection, I noticed when I went in and out of the buy screen the prices kept changing in a matter of minutes. Maybe that means nothing, but I still wonder how the Market is out of their hands when it's their game.
    Are 👽 from planet Uranus swooping in and pressing buttons to make Trouty close to 600K stubs? How does he stay above 500K?
    Did Kanamits parachute in and wire the system?
    I wish we had Leonard Nimoy from 'In search of' or Geraldo Rivera to open the SDS 'vault,' or Lt. Columbo to train his sons to catch everyone lying like he did, back in the day 🤣

    I lost a few million last year by cancelling buy orders on Billy Wagner without thinking about the cap.

    Market is absolutely manipulated by sds. Today I pulled a diamond sponsorship. Go to market and it is selling for 2500. An hour later it is down to 2100. And about 12 hours later it is down to 1300. Thanks for the diamond sds but did you really have to give so many others the exact same diamond on the same day?
