This has to be the mother of paywalls!

@I23SAVAGE23I_XBL Man I sold Simmons for like $55k prior, GDamnit!

some of you geriatrics
I resemble that remark.

@MarioMendoza935_XBL some not all, you seem sound of mind

People dont pay attention - these big collections are super easy ways to make money. I didn't even really try and made 700k in stubs on both recent collections.
The problem is that nobody starts prepping until two weeks before the collection is coming out - get scarce cards early. Load up during flash sales. Never buy packs. Its not hard to figure out which cards will likely be in demand. Buy low-supply stuff, its almost always a good investment.
You dont need to pay to win, you just have to pay attention.

@rubicante23_PSN true, but its a game dude. Most people are just playing the game bro. They arnt foreshadowing investing and cards and preparing like this is a real stock market. Great that you do this. And those of us who play should maybe be doing this. Most people arnt thinking about that. They just want to play the game and progress that way.

@SpawnOfDitka_XBL well maybe don’t expect to be in the same shoes as someone. It’s unrealistic to think everyone should earn this same things at the same pace. This isn’t geared to you specifically just in general.

@Simple-Jack3998_XBL thats simply not true, i need 2 cards for Beltran, i have 3 boys, work, and a wife. I find plenty of time to hang with the kids, baseball is just ending for them, chase the wife around the house, and do house work. Oh yeah and full time. if you know how to maximize your playing time, its not hard.
Just stop. Are you going to tell us that you pulled Shohei 3x and Judge 2x and have a 10x flawless banner too?
If you don't:
get great pulls
flip cards
are elite at the game
spend moneythen the game sucks balls. It is extremely unrewarding. Matter of fact easily the most unrewarding game I've ever played. Ask anyone who doesn't do the above, they'll tell you the same thing.
I still find it more rewarding than Madden. You definitely need some luck mixed with good pulls and at the very least investments if you aren't actively flipping.

@Apolloz_99_MLBTS I dont disagree. I actually agree. But also dont make it seem easy either. Its not easy. There is no rym or reason why some cards are high and some are not. Alot of the times. Like some of the headliners are real high and some are not. Chase cards make sense to buy if they come down low during a flash sale that makes sense. No one expected these chase cards to reach 500k plus. I dont remember them ever being that high in previous years.

you seem sound of mind
Best compliment I've received this year.
-
@Thongypu_PSN yeah, thats exactly it - you dont need to flip cards, but you do have to pinch pennies (not buy packs) and invest in the right cards.
And theres definitely a "rhyme" to what cards are gonna skyrocket - SDS does the same stuff over and over. Darren ODay was an obvious investment- so was Mookie and Strider....all of which you could've bought for super low prices.

I agree, I halfway prepped as I was finishing up V Mart's collection. Not as far away as I thought but still aways to go. Not terribly difficult, it will be a several weeks and I should there.

It really isn't.
-
Thanks for correcting me. What i will say is that people think SDS is supposedly "forcing" microtransactions onto us. People really need a reality check.
No problem, and I certainly hope it wasn't coming across condescending-like. Is it annoying AF that some of the collection-required cards are locked behind the stub shop? Absolutely. Are they necessary to enjoy the game and be competitive? Absolutely not. Appreciate you having the stones to admit that, and not just try to gaslight like some will.

@DemIsE4_XBL you cry alot. The game is not hard to make stubs if you put the time in. Sorry you're lazy AF, and come here to complain about not getting the cards you want. I have not flipped at all, i'm a WS player, nothing great, 0 flawless runs (but i dont play BR), i've not pulled judge or shoehei. The game is rewarding if you know how to play. If you spend half the time playing as you do coming here and complaining you'd have all the cards you want.
