Polite request
Don't allow people with a sell order on a card to do a buy order on the same card. I just tested this briefly and you can do it. I am sure this has happened on several cards I have made bids upon. The seller bids closer to his asking price to inflate demand.
EDIT: I mean, how was this not figured out beforehand... EDIT 2: Holy crap I just figured out how PT drains our points out. This was planned all along! (conspiracy theorist here). Being a conspiracy theorist for 20 years now I know I'm probably right. Last edited by Sinnerman; 05-16-2025 at 06:37 PM. |

It's not some nefarious mechanism designed to suck away points, it's just people taking advantage of a relatively slow marketplace and player impatience for their own benefit. Even if the devs prohibited both buying and selling the same card, players could work around it by using multiple accounts.

There are people who generate PP's this way
It's just like day trading stocks, commodities, and other financial instruments. There are a lot of people who make money this way. And a lot who go broke trying. Here, going broke isn't on the table, since you can make up your losses with achievement points or selling off inventory.
