Help with obtaining stubs.....
-
Can anyone share their methods on how they obtain large amounts of stubs? I see streams and pictures with accounts that have millions in stubs, is it really just sitting for hours flipping the market or am I missing something?

Sitting for hours flipping the market.
I used to do it in 20 and had well over 6 million. I dont have the time and patience to do it this year. I only have 165k but it's enough to get most things done. I like grinding anyway.
-
I know it's a pain and takes quite a while, but knocking out the USA map nets you about 100K stubs. Plus 10 packs. I've done it 3 times total so far.
-
It’s time and grinding. Have a set amount of stubs that you don’t spend and only use for flipping. I try to keep 300k but you can certainly make plenty with less than that. Find a spot in the market where there are a few pages of stuff that you can reliably make 1k-3k+ per flip and just hit them over and over. I tend to go for non-player items. Less traffic you can set your orders and they don’t get outbid quite as fast.
Edit- I’ll do a bunch of orders. Go play a game. Then check them between games. Reset them all once or twice an hour. If it’s slow at work I may flip on the site or the app. Adds up faster than you might think.

I mainly play offline and have done the USA conquest map at least 10 times. Now that they changed it to getting all the prospects for each division you can make bank off That. Also do not buy packs, even the headliners if you buy 5 add up. That is the biggest difference for me, this is the first year I have forced myself to not buy packs. Also if you do the ballplayer archtypes you get alot of xp and for the diamond ones you get diamond equipment that some sells for a nice chunk of change.

That was going to be my next question, I follow Showzone and usually will go after the the cards that are being bought/sold the most.....but the constant bid-outbid thing gets annoying after a while. Do you have recommendations on what items to look for or what types of players?

The outbid thing- dont worry about it at all, set all your orders,come back in awhile, and then sell the ones that fill cancel the ones that dont.if you are going with fast movers it wont matter as youll get most and they fill so fast that your not waiting long periods and can just do another run if you dont make as much as you wanted.

I take about a half hour a day to buy and sell cards on the market, I don't always look for most value on each card. I look for what's selling fast,
-
Flip Topps now cards.
-
If they are streamers or content creators, most of them just buy the stubs so they can get the new cards fast and do debut videos. Many people like already mentioned play the market.
-
Most streamers I’ve seen play a lot of BR , Events and RS. So they earn many of the cards the offline guys need to buy. Additionally a lot of these guys also rip a ton of packs , tons. More packs ripped , more diamonds pulled , more sellable items

Step 1: take out credit card
Step 2: input credit card info to online account
Step 3: max credit card out on stub purchases -

Outside of flipping, it's mainly buying the right cards before collections hit then selling them for 5x - 10x.

There's 3 ways:
A. Hours and hours (and hours!) of flipping.
B. Be really, really, REALLY good at the game, sell your BR and WS rewards.
C. Pull out the ol' American Express.There's no "easy" way. It takes time, talent, or treasure.
-
Making 30k in an hour or see is easy. Find 30 cards with a 1111 stub plus difference between sell/buy orders. Wait 30 minutes after putting in the buy orders. List them for sale and check back in 30 minutes. Do that for a month and you could have s million stubs.

I disagree. You don't need to be really good, flip for hours or pull out your cc. Just need to know how the game works with content and buy the right cards to sell for 10x profit later.
I'm none of those things and have every card in the game and sitting on 2M and have 1M invested in cards. I've rarely flipped.
-
P.s. flash sales can be an easy way to 2x your stubbs depending on the sale. A good example is the HRD cards. The lower tier bottomed out at 10k, they were back up to 20k + within a day or 2. Easy stubbs.
Additionally, peeps sell all their cards to buy the packs, so it's also a great time to pick up any rare WS, event or BR cards that have value to complete collections.
Pay attention to stuff like these and you'll be rolling in stubbs.

I’ve always wondered about how quickly TN cards move. And if they do move quickly, why is that when they can be obtained pretty easily at no cost (grinding moments)?
Either (a) many people sell them right away after doing the moments and then have to buy again for collections, or (b) many people are lazy to do the moments?

Topps now always move, A lot of people still want the POTM cards. Also the Topps are actually pretty decent budget players.
