I might need an intervention
-
Guys, Gals and others
It’s reached a boiling point. I just recently started hiding stubs in buy orders. I don’t need anymore stubs but I can’t stop. A few moments before this post I put up a bunch of sell orders on 25x Travis Shaws!!! Who in the hell flips Travis Shaws???!!!!! How did this happen?What is wrong with me?
I use to just flip cards straight up. Go after big margins. I was amateur. I only flipped when playing the actual game. I should’ve stayed naive. Then a buddy of mine introduced me to the “Companion App.” At first I’d flip on the app when I was using the bathroom. In between commercials on tv. On lunch break. You know just harmless social flipping. I was still in control. I still took care of my responsibilities.
I was flipping big fish. Getting my quick sellers buzz. Then that all changed.I took a journey to the bronze and common cards. I could put in thousands of buy orders in a very short period of time for 5 to 10 stubs, a hit. I’d wait 30 minutes check to see what orders went through. Then put sell orders in for all the cards I bought. It was fun at first. But then I needed more. I needed to buy more, sell faster, buy low, sell high, sell higher, SELL!!!!!!!
This is how I got to this point. I’m ready to ask for help.

I too am a flipaholic!
First it was all fun and games, flipping HRD/ASG and 42 cards a few at a time before playing for the night. Then I met the companion app and I found myself checking buy and sell orders at stop lights and when friends leave the room, craving more profit all the time. In the last month I went from missing many of the high priced cards that I couldn't win and just a few minutes ago, I bought Gehrig and Arenado and still have a Million stubs for Wagner....but it's never enough. I know there's hope. But I just need to flip a few more.

The companion app makes it so there is zero work involved in flipping... It’s too easy.

I’m 1 day sober off the Companion App. I don’t need to flip especial this late in the game cycle. I feel like a dooms day hoarder. What could anyone need with millions of stubs? The funny thing, I’m still cheap with my card purchases.

My buddy still hasn't opened his last 3 boss packs because he wants to see which ones will keep the most value. It truly blows my mind what he's saving them for.
I am on the flip side, buying as many cards as I can to try and complete the collection despite the fact that I'll never use many of them. We all have to work the program haha.

I had about 70,000 stubs before last Friday. I had 420 packs of which regular, team affinity, Ballin, ASG, Homerun derby, flash sale(not live series), Field of dreams got me to half a million stubs so I could purchase Rickey Henderson. The other packs were uniforms, bat skins, banners and other non sell items/players

Why would you wait until you were stopped at a red light? Rookie move...

I just opened my 2nd season WS reward I got in May or June. It had Nolan Ryan, Prince Fielder, Ryne Sandberg and I forget last one. I do the same. I still have last two WS rewards stashed as well

The first step is admitting you have a problem.
But nobody likes a quitter. Haha! -

When you’re right, you’re right. And this guy, he’s always right

Hahahaha, I know. I live with the shame everyday.
This is my first year and when I bought the Game I actually paid an extra $50 for cards with real money. It was only one time....it meant nothing. But I will live with the shame for the rest of my life. Now that I spend my days on the app flippin' and stubbin' I miss the innocent days of opening headliner packs and getting excited for live series
. Those were simply times.Soooo, who should I purchase next? The last big cards I'm missing (not including the new bosses) are Arrieta, Chapman, Bellinger and Wagner. Who is most worthy??

I hope you chose Sandberg. He's like 220k. Insane. Not sure I'll ever have him in my inventory though I got the HRD 97 (which we all have) and really enjoy that card on occasion.

I took sandberg because he was the most expensive one and I just ended up buying the rest. I have every single card released, apart from this program of course but I’ll have those when they cheapen in price
