Houston we have a Problem
-
When you see cards that have a Sell Now higher than a Buy Now, there is definitely something wrong, lol.
-
Buy now + sell now = profit. Just make sure the math works out with the tax, and don't look a gift horse in the mouth.

I am quite familiar with how the Market Works bud .You misunderstand the Image and what is taking place. The system won't allow such a Transaction to exist.
You can't place an Order to Buy the Card for 24,350 if someone has one listed for 23,650. You will get an Error, a better offer already exist.
This is just one of many cards listed on the Market Right now that are like this. It is a coding issue.

Here is a better example so you can see the Buy/Sell Price Columns.

I've been playing diamond dynasty since 17. I'm also quite familiar with how the market works "bud", and I didn't misunderstand anything. I know it's not supposed to work that way. However, if the game actually lets you buy and sell now to get a profit because of a screw up on SDS's part...don't look a gift horse in the mouth. Just do it. Now whether or not you can actually use buy now and sell now on that particular order, I have no idea since the servers are down and I wouldn't be able to test it.
Using your Soto example, you could buy now for 43000, and then sell now and get back 43200 after tax. Not much at 200 stub profit, but it's profit for nothing.

This isn't a market coding issue. This is a data sync issue. I'd bet that the market in game does not have these prices listed ever.
The feeds coming from the market data repository are not synced with the web XML feeds on the buy now.
It's a problem, yes. That's the problem of the code guys that are responsible for the TSN market.

is the website market still down for everyone else?

In the years past, you were never allowed to place that type of order without an Error Message and replace your bid. Maybe this year something slipped through and you can. Since I can't actually access the market to test this, Imma go with either you know this or @hoboadam_PSN is correct that this is a Website/Sever issue that hasn't translated from the game yet.
Either way, thanks for the input bud and I'll try once I can get on the Market.

The market on the console will always be the accurate one. I could go into 12 paragraphs and explain how the web interface has to interact with the DB2 tables that the console market accesses directly, but that would be boring AF.
Good luck bro. If SDS didn't touch a thing with the XML code, you'd never see this after the first two weeks when the number of market transactions is the highest.

It was this way on the console this morning as well. Before work, I bought and then sold a bunch of cards for profit. Lots of bronze and silver had big enough backwards margin to make profit. I was hoping to get to work and continue but it wouldn't let me login to the market on the website.
