I am here to request that SDS reconsider their "patch" to back orders. This mechanic has been in the game as long as I can remember and has been a very useful investment tool for those who are savvy enough (and patient enough) to use it. There are drawbacks for those investing: stubs are tied up fairly long term and those buy orders can always slow down if the card goes up even further, but patience leads to long term gain.

I must say that I personally see no good reason to take away this investment method. It is just as speculative as regular investment and you may be left holding the bag on an eventual crash if the card doesn't hit.

I am humbly asking that this decision be reconsidered and that back orders be returned.

To clarify a point that has been brought up: I completely agree that the seller should not be short changed in this scenario either. I believe the better solution to the problem would be to continue to honor these investments, but simply either a) connect all Quick Sells for these cards to the next buy order available or b) simply compensate the seller for the difference to quick sell. While I realize this could get complicated, I believe it would better honor this investment strategy that has been around a long time while still solving the issue of the seller being short changed because of their mistake. Both parties can benefit!

@theBlindRhino_PSN Ha! I had a buddy who told me it'd get confused with the Always Sunny reference. It's from Psych though. XBox doesn't allow apostrophes, so it's supposed to read Sh'Dynasty, but it doesn't. That's a good catch!

@SchnauzerFace_MLBTS that is fair. I was pretty bummed out about it because I've also used this to try to help out new players who don't know how to invest over the years, so I was a bit bummed yesterday. It is what it is, I suppose. I won't lose sleep over it, but I am still disappointed.

@theBlindRhino_PSN I'm afraid I don't understand what you're saying.

@aaronjw76_PSN hey man, let's not do this. It's completely reasonable not to penalize people for making a mistake. The function could return without hurting others. Preventing that is a reasonable ask.
