Put in the time like the rest of us, and you'll have him too. Frankly, I think it should have been a higher collect percentage for the big collection reward (Griffey).
I've obviously put in the time if I'm 4 vouchers and like 15 cards away. I don't play online anymore because I just get matched against people who don't miss when they swing and this is my first year on the game. It's all tryhards now because its become Pay to play.
I guarantee at least 90% of the guys you face online this time of year haven't spent one cent in stubs this whole year. This isn’t madden or 2k man all the cards can be or at least could have been at some point easily earned by playing. Some of us even had to spend more than 30k on live series Trout if you can imagine that.
okay, but what I'm saying is there is no reason for an 85 rated John Smoltz should be 250k when he also has higher-rated cards. It would be nice if they would do something about the ridiculous inflation. Don't feel like that's a ridiculous ask.
Ok, by that same principle SDS owes me stub refunds because I bought cards that were a lot more expensive that are dirt cheap now.

That's because Smoltz was a BR/Event or Ranked Seasons reward
Those always go up in price because you can't find them anymore. Smoltz was a events reward for the first event of the year, so if they do a rewind pack in the next events run you will see those prices go down.
It's not about the rating of the card it's how many cards are in circulation at the moment.
This is exactly the problem, I've still put in a [censored] ton of work to get this far, and now I'm just screwed because prices are through the roof. Doesn't make me want to buy next years game or even continuing playing this year.
And all I'm saying is if your patient enough those prices should come down. That or as others have said buy the game at the beginning of the season not December when the game has only at most 3 months left.

Yeah those floor and ceilings are decided by consumers, not the business. If a business wants to sell a plastic cup for $900, but no one buys, it's obvious the consumers have set a ceiling much lower then that

Bruh, I'm not saying make and 85 John Smoltz 5k, but setting a max of 75k wouldn't be bad at this late stage in the year. It's worked great on FIFA Ultimate team. Also, if you have all of the collections done at this point, do you really have a reason to try and sell the Smoltz card for 250k other than greed?

Greed lol. Look I really hate this word, like it pains me to type it, but you reek of entitlement. "Hey I want to not put in as much work but also have everything people have worked on all year!
Also sorry but I don't want SDS copying anything on markets from EA, believe it or not, EAs model is ACTUALLY p2w. You don't need Griffey to win at all, plenty of good or better outfielders.

Then go play FIFA if it’s so great. Getting cards now has been cheaper and easier than ever. You started late. That’s on you. If you started at the beginning of the year like the rest of us, you most likely wouldn’t have this problem. Many of us overpaid for cards early in the year but they are dirt cheap with many being at quick sell value. So should we get stub refunds because the prices for those cards have tanked. I would like 270,000 “stub refund” for the difference in the price of when I bought Trout to the price that it is now.

If they did that and set a max buy order of 75k for a card like Smoltz then every card would be like Finest Trout with huge wait lines.

I had to wait 3 weeks for a 60 overall card to finish up the live series collections. So I'd rather wait lines than pay a ridiculous amount. But hey maybe that's just me, we are all entitled to our own opinion.

The high demand for Trout also makes sense given it's his best card, but the Smoltz has what, at least two other cards higher, I understand he's from earlier on in the year, but it feels like there could be something at this point where they could make it easier to attain older cards.

If that many people are willing to pay 200k-250k for Smoltz, there would absolutely be a line at 75k.
It doesn't matter that Smoltz has higher cards, I feel you don't grasp how or why prices exist. No one is paying 250k to use Smoltz, it's just that he's a rare card type

Someone doesn't understand Supply/Demand...Econ 101. Audit a class at your local Ivy Tech. Heck hit up your local high school.
There are also things called price floors and ceilings and if they had actually implemented reasonable ones this problem wouldn't be occurring.
Yeah those floor and ceilings are decided by consumers, not the business. If a business wants to sell a plastic cup for $900, but no one buys, it's obvious the consumers have set a ceiling much lower then that
https://www.investopedia.com/terms/p/price-ceiling.asp#:~:text=A price ceiling is a,particular event sends costs skyrocketing.Tell me how SDS couldn't implement this especially on obviously overpriced cards.
So what you are saying is.
"Hi players who have been with us all year, I know you have these cards you've worked all year to get, but we have now decided you can't cash in on those cards for good stub prices, we will instead punish you for having that card all year"
Bruh, I'm not saying make and 85 John Smoltz 5k, but setting a max of 75k wouldn't be bad at this late stage in the year. It's worked great on FIFA Ultimate team. Also, if you have all of the collections done at this point, do you really have a reason to try and sell the Smoltz card for 250k other than greed?
If they did that and set a max buy order of 75k for a card like Smoltz then every card would be like Finest Trout with huge wait lines.
Didn't even think about that, A+ response right there
The high demand for Trout also makes sense given it's his best card, but the Smoltz has what, at least two other cards higher, I understand he's from earlier on in the year, but it feels like there could be something at this point where they could make it easier to attain older cards.
If that many people are willing to pay 200k-250k for Smoltz, there would absolutely be a line at 75k.
It doesn't matter that Smoltz has higher cards, I feel you don't grasp how or why prices exist. No one is paying 250k to use Smoltz, it's just that he's a rare card type
I understand them, I just don't feel like a video game market has to work like a capitalistic economy.

So again, just screw early players right?
Where is my refund for the higher prices I paid for Trout?
