    Play the game?

    Spoken like someone who doesn’t know how to work the market. Have fun not getting collections done until next March

    You're the guy who literally doesn't know how to work the market. You said so in your original post.....

    "I identify a card I want to flip, put a buy order in equal to the lowest order available and next thing I know I’m like 10th in line."

    I’m literally entitled to the cards.

    lol see that's the thing - you are entitled to absolutely nothing - remember that as you go about your day - don't cry, make wine out of those tears

    I am entilted to every thing I earn and whatever is free lol

    Not sure what flips are being attempted, but I haven’t had much trouble during early access. It’s pretty much how I spend most of my time during the early stages. I do a ton of low level flips though so maybe that’s it. That part of the market doesn’t seem as volatile. I’m totally fine with making 80-150 stubs per flip if I’m flipping 15-20 cards every few mins 🤷‍♂️

    The market has certainly been a bit tougher than years past, primarily because the servers are working surprisingly well and web access was immediate so on friday i suspect a ton of people were on the market on their work computers flipping like crazy whereas normally it takes at least until the weekend for margins to significantly shrink.

    I still had no problem making my stubs though. I actually did better the first day than i normally do. that said, it's already pretty tough out there. Hopefully it gets easier as all the casuals get their access that probably don't flip as much and orders start flying.

    Yes I’ve noticed the margins aren’t quite as large as years past, but I agree, I haven’t had trouble making my stubs so far. Started with the 25k and have a nice bankroll going into official release tonight. Fingers crossed the servers cooperate for me as well as they did all weekend (won’t hold my breath haha). I get off at 730p so it’s perfect as I can get on with the general population at 9p (west coaster). Hoping for a ton of people just hitting that sell now and buy now haha

    We don't need to be taking about margins in early access. I know most of you haven't flipped in early access before. This is the first year that the website/app is available during early access. Early access margins are always this way

    I would venture a guess that at least 50% of the early access players know how to flip and are doing so. The ones that get the game tonight probably not so much

    And then we flippers profit! 🤑

    I mean pretty much any veteran who plays this game knows how to flip, knows how to be nms and a good deal of people come to these forums and brag how to do it, so SDs changed a few things year... I mean people abusing the app last year to a point where once again people had too many Stubbs and we had Cards like Killebrew and Turner unable to be bought. I believe the flips will return when the general public and game pass players return and aren’t sure what to do.

    It's always that way until after the early access expires. It will get much better soon

    Or maybe not so much.

    It's been tough this year compared to last several years. The card prices have changed a bit and it's more difficult to find profit margins that are pretty reliable.

    I've managed to do just fine tbh. Bronze to silver exchanges were a gold mine for a while, now ik focusing on investing cards while flipping the few good margins there are.

    Here's a shocker: I'm someone who actually admits I probably DON'T know how to take full advantage of the market and flipping optimally, etc. Somewhat new to it. Any great in depth guides anyone can recommend to learn the tricks of the trade?

    Easiest way is to buy late at night or early morning during the week like Wednesday and then sell on the weekends during the busy hours. That's what I do. I bought jazz xhison last night at 1 am for 17k just sold then for 25k. Rinse and repeat.

    I don't buy cards I wouldn't want to get stuck with.

    Not sure how to manipulate the prices or keep tabs on them. I really don't buy cards, I just sometimes sell ones that I pull that are very expensive and look to reacquire later.

    Just look for margins on anything you can find. Buy low sell high. That's pretty much all. I've been doing it for many years now and it's (usually) a great way to get the expensive cards for collections. Makes obtaining Trout seem doable.

    With these being virtual cards I'm not sure how or why their prices change, much less which ones to target.
