150,000 Stubs for $99.99
-
Just curious if anybody ever actually spent $99.99 for 150,000 stubs that wouldn't even be enough to buy one-half of a Mike Trout card in the community market.
-
Yeah. It is the best bang for your buck when it comes to buying stubs
-
If nobody bought them, they wouldn’t be in the market. I’m sure a very substantial percentage of players on this forum have bought $100 worth of stubs, but I’m also sure that most wont admit to it.
-
I did it in 17, haven't since.
-
I do once in a while. I have money. It's not a big deal. I like to put money into things I also put my time into. As you would going to the movies, golfing, etc.
And also, it's none of your business how I or anyone spends their money. -
I know I did it a couple times last year. Can’t remember if I did it this year lol. But I have bought the 24000 a couple times
-
I did it twice when it was 84$ last stub sale within minutes of it going live so I could get trout when he was 220k and cole when he was 90k.
-
I don’t think I’ve bought the hundo, but I really should have because I’ve gotten the 50 a few times.
I rarely bought stubs last year, but this year has been very different. In 19, I had sick pack luck all year (2x trout, 3x Arenado), the market was much lower overall, and I made probably 2.5 million in gold—> diamond investments, which obviously isn’t possible in 20 (at least not yet).
-
Alot of people do
-
I've only did it once so far this year, during the sale, so it was technically $85. I assume at some point in the year I will buy another bundle, as @Nanthrax_1 I have the money, and I view it no different than blowing $50 at the bar or movies.
And no, it hasn't made me better at the game being able to get decent players.

And in return for scamming you of your extra money, they give you a buggy unfinished product. Suckers
-
Remember a lot of professional players play this game and most make millions. I wouldn’t be surprised if they drop a pretty penny on this for the ones who play. Even RoFlo the MLB Network commentator has admitted to spending a lot on his team in his twitch streams.
-
I have, a few times. I’m well off and on disability for a least year recovering from surgery so I need to pass the time somewhere
-
I’ve plopped about $400 in $99.00 increments
-
I actually pulled a Matt Kemp in a Ballin Is A Habit pack the other day (my best pull ever by the way!) and would have rather had the $99.99 than the 170,000 stubs I sold him for.
-
Same people who complain about the cost of student loans will throw hundred of dollars at a video game and call it expendable income. The worlds gone crazy.
But yea if you’re going to do it, do it right and get the big boy.
-
99.99 isn't very much.
-
I spent my stimulus money and CARES act money on it
-
just work the market people.
stub sales are actually the BEST time to sell your cards as prices rise. I remember in '19 selling a 20k card for 45k and then buying it back later after the sale for less than 20k.
couple of hours every day and stack your profits. 150K in stubs could be had in awhile, and you can do it on your phone on your spare time..... -

How is it a scam? If they say “we will give you 150,000 stubs in exchange for $99.99,” and then you do in fact receive 150,000 stubs in exchange for $99.99.... how in the world is that a scam?
