You EVER going to FIX the BOTS in the market
-
The other day I did a Google search for 'how to beat the market bots in mlb the show 26' and their AI thing actually had some pretty helpful tips. I recommend everyone check that out and give it a shot.

Flipping had become a viable way to make stubs . Then in an attempts to fight the bots they restricted a bunch of people ‘s accounts. I put in a ticket on tuesday and replied to it once, very nicely. I wish they would make a statement at least. That is one my ultimate pet peeves. No communication.

I LOVE flipping cards -- learned that I could do it in The Show 24. But, I AGREE...it is MUCH harder to flip cards this year. You almost gotta have 3x the stubs it costs to get one card so that you can bid on it up to 3 times while waiting for one to hit. If BOTS are the problem, I'm all for setting restrictions. I noticed restrictions on buying more than 20 of the same card when I tried to get ahead of a bronze/silver upgrade of one of my favorite young players. I wasn't happy, but I totally get it.

This is exactly what’s happening. IF it mattered, there’s seemingly so many ways to identify and cut down on the bots. Sure there’s some aggressive flippers but it’s not even possible to sit on bids for multiple cards at the same time and beat or undercut new bids in a fraction of a second. Oh, some account makes a bid instantly anytime a bid on a certain card is made.. 24/7… that’s sus. The bots totally ruin the whole market part of the game and everybody is totally helpless against them. Pointless to even leave a bid because it just keeps bidding and undercutting. Not only is it nearly impossible to beat the bots, you’ll get banned for even trying to compete because the lousy outdated automated filters in place will flag your account.
So ya. It’s a waste of time to try and beat the bots and if you try, you’ll probably get your account restricted. It’s shameful.

I don't know if there are bots or not, but flipping margins are starting to get back to previous year's returns, so I don't really care.

I'm actually doing ok these past few days to be honest, now up to 200k on my Ohtani climb. If my recent success continues I may have him by next weekend. Fingers crossed the margins stay.

@DSquared80_PSN the cards that have good flipping margins are always the ones that have bots on them that undercut my sell order as soon as I place it. They also cancel their old sell order at the same time. The speed it happens, it can't not be bots

I must be lucky. I've flipped, in the past few days, from 20K to 350K.

The past few days have been great, other then the lag

I wish I had the patience to do that so I could get Simmons and Berkman

If he would have realized this, they wouldn't have fallen into the trap.(Referring to the pic not the post)

He realized it too late. Admiral Ackbar had some real rough luck.

@SaveFarris_PSN oh yeah I was doing great until they restricted my account. Now I can’t. and I’m afraid to flip cards on the console because if the restrict me there, then what? I submitted a ticket but I doubt this will get fixed anytime soon if ever.
Still, thanks to an Ohtani pull and the margins opening up a few weeks ago, I’m now 2 cards away from completing LS. And I was able to complete several of the smaller collections. If I’d been able to flip this week I might have LS done.

@Dolenz_PSN I only do it on the app while I’m listening to an audiobook or bored at work. Or at least until they restricted my account. The funny thing is, I had nowhere near as many transactions as most flippers. I put in 20-30 buy orders, give it 15 minutes and then sell. Maybe a few hundred a day.

Funny how peoples perspectives can be so different. To me, a few hundred a day seems like a lot since my history only shows 118 transactions for the whole year so far.

Very true, I don’t flip, I only sell off duplicates that are worth it and buy cards I want. I have around 10k completed orders.
