I'm done arguing with you.
You add value to most things on TSN, but when you dig in your heels, your stuck up european attitude turns me off.
Enjoy your day. I'm Audi 5000.
That's because I have an allergy to baseless speculation. Happens too much in the world already and it causes damage. Maybe not around here, because all this doesn't mean a thing, but it's a matter of principle. If you want to point out my European background for that, that's fine. I'd say its because I'm a stand up kind of guy who values factual insights over hearsay and speculative theories.
Good day to you as well.

This is NOT happening for Wagner lol it’s sooo easy to make stubs and ppl have MILLIONS of stubs so why wouldn’t you buy the best lefty reliever on the market.. I had a buy order in for Wagner when there was 10 orders up and it just kept rising and took like 5 days to go through.. ppl just have the stubs to spend so why wouldn’t you buy him?
-
There haven't been any worthwhile cards released on the market in a while, really the last one being the 8th inning bosses, combine that with how many stubs are floating out there, and I can easily see that many people putting in an order to get Wagner.
It's incredibly easy to make stubs, and so many YouTubers do market videos or investments stuff, that many people are getting smarter with stubs. Being a stub millionaire isn't as impressive this year, (I have 4.3m stubs + guys like Wagner and Alomar myself). So I would bet you are underestimating the amount of people who are both 1. interested in Wagner and 2. have the stubs to buy
I bought Wagner on release day for 825k and would never think of selling him, best LHP by far I've used.

Here is the other thing. Those one million buy orders go in order if when they were placed. So with 35 of them, how in the world would two people be able to work that out? That will work when there are no standing 1 M orders, but not now.
-
The only, and I mean only, issue, is people that want him even for a million stubs aren’t going to get him, at least not for a very long time.

Don’t bother , OP is a stubborn American who believes his way/thinking is the only right way . He doesn’t care if what he says is unproven and lacks facts. He also believes in unicorns and that Trump is the greatest president . He also believes COVID is a hoax.
Sigh , Americans.

I would keep politics out of this forum, that’s a time bomb waiting to happen.

But people that have 1m stubs aren't sinking it into one pitcher.
It's the multi millionaire guys.
There's NO WAY that 39 orders are 30+ people. It's a way to have stubs in the market, but not hit the cap of stubs in hand.
What's the cap this year? Used to be 2 million
Im no money spent and have around 3.5 million stubs and Wagner that I payed 1m for, also Mize and feller. Stubs are so easy this year, I could easily make 1m stubs stubs every week if I wanted to.
-
He’s he best lefty reliever in the game, which is the most shallow position. Anyone building an elite team Wagner is a must have. Makes perfect sense, glad I got him long ago. I’m surprised it’s not over 100 orders w how easy it is to make stubs and the tens or hundreds of thousands of people who play the game
-
I have 5 million stubs I'm at the limit...I got 300k in 1111 an 2222 buy orders on things that will never ever sell for that price an if it did I'd resell it an make a profit....with wagner I'd never put a million stubs order in to hoard stubs if anything I'd put it a 500k or less order in because I know it won't sell for that an again if it did I'd put it back up for a million for profit..there's just better ways to hoard the stubs but as someone said there's nothing really to buy right now I got mantle trout an every other card I want to have...this really has been the best year to make stubs an I love it hope they never change it

There are 50 buy orders for 1,000,000 from one person alone

No man, that’s 50 different orders for a million stubs. They ain’t from the same guy

No, 1M stubs is the highest you can put a buy or sell order at. So no one can up it, so the only way people can obtain Wagner is by putting in a 1M stub order, and wait for the others to fill, so if there are 34 orders, and you put in the 35th, you have to wait for 34 Wagners to sell.
So it's not one person, it's a bunch of people who all want Wagner, but can't bid any higher.
-
Here's the thing, do stub transfers happen? Absolutely. I dont think anyone is trying to deny that. What people are denying is your claim that the buy orders on Billy Wagner have anything to do with that. I assume the type of people who do stub transfers are impatient so why would they do it on a popular card that they will have to wait for if there are more orders in front of them flr the same price? They wouldn't, they would probably do it on some random card nlone is paying attention to.
Short version: stub transfers happen AND those Billy Wagner orders are legit.

I think OP puts too much thought into this I know 4 people in my 5 miles radius with over a million stubs and all the cards i want. Are us 5 in the middle if kansas really the top 5% like you say???? I highly doubt it.

I will argue that all day. I know about 50 people that have this game and only one other has any sort of decent stub balance. Not to mention how many kids have this game and play it casually ( my son has a copy, he is always scraping stubs to buy cards). I would argue way less than 5%. Keep in mind, people in this formula are the crazies ( myself included), most people are not like us.

Around here we were all out of a job for 2 and a half months. We are all adults as well. I just see how bad one of them is at the game and he has made millions. More than me. The game gives you all the stubs you need... Its only up to you to manage it. We also profited big off of weekly roster updates. We had a chat specifically for it.

@OreoRockstar my son has an account to but I grind his stuff out when i get bored. Lol he's spoiled for subs because never locked anything in on his account.

That’s awesome. My son just turned 10, and he is an unreal hitter in this game. Guess it’s the youth Reflexes. When i pitch and he hits, we can hang with almost anyone. But he doesn’t really understand the nuances of pitching yet and I am a mediocre hitter at best. But like you, I have worked the market and have more stubs than I can spend and this is after buying everyone basically in the game

@hoboadam said in Billy Wagner buy orders:
Currently there are 39 buys at 1 million.
Well done by SDS for not having any control mechanics to prevent the stub transfer machine.
There's NO WAY that this is even 30 different individuals.
I have mine already, so that's not why I'm making this hate post.
Any BR card that drops now for the near future is clogged behind alternate accounts that hoard stubs and don't play games.
Just sayin...
I am one of those guys that put in a million dollar bid. I have been trying to buy Billy Wagner for weeks now. There is just a limited supply. I would actually buy him for 2 million if I could.
Your theory of proxy bids to stash a million makes no sense because you get hit with a 10% tax. No one would do what you're suggesting because they would be losing 100K. The guys that have millions didn't get their millions by being stupid.
The true answer is that people have money and they want Wagner. I literally have everyone else and I'm bored. I have 5 million in stubbs. Why not?
