    I can’t stress enough to folks that think they’re undercutting the market: know what the quick sell prices will be lol. Nothing like looking at a diamond bat for sell for 1000 stubs when that’s the quick sell value. In order for the seller to make that 1000, they either have to quick sell OR sell at 1111 stubs to offset the 10% SDS makes off of it.

    Math is hard for a lot of these people.

    What's the purpose of the tax anyway? I've never really heard a good explanation.

    Unless you like seeing hyperinflation at the end of the year, you have to have some way to remove stubs from the game to keep the market stable. Taxing sales is the best way to do it.

    Sure, some people are stupid and can't handle simple math, but there is an easy explanation for a lot of those sell orders at quicksell value. The app. If you've been playing all year you could have thousands of duplicates in your binder. Selling them off via the game can be a slow and tedious process. I sold plenty of bronze cards at 25 stubs because I didn't want to waste my time trying to find them all in game, and I would just go through dupes on my phone while watching TV. Even the 100 stubs loss from something like a diamond bat can be written off in your mind as a convenience fee.

    I ended up with almost every card in the game and 5 million stubs with nothing to spend them on, so the loss in sales tax didn't exactly send me to the poor house.
