From what I've seen, anything above 130K and you're probably not gonna sell it. Might catch lightning in a bottle, but that seems about as much as Joe OOTP'er is willing to spend. I will definitely get it for less than 100K. It's just a matter of getting a little bit lucky..refreshing at the right time (someone said they got one for 32K today...another guy mentioned buying for 55K a week or so ago), popping one from a pack, waiting out PP-starved sellers. We'll see how the market develops after the next batch of missions comes out, into the holidays, and into the run up to PT 3.0. I don't mind waiting. Classic case of right place meeting the right time. If only I could refresh at the rate with some of you top guys out there...sadly, my job is not one where I can have OOTP open 24/7. It's a bit of a disadvantage.

And the next Hrabosky goes up for 130K. Bottleneckers seeing the same market as me.

The good news for you is that you have a front-row seat to my everyday, ham-fisted approach at managing a team, and yet I still managed to place a $0 team in Perfect League (and many others have with more success), so there's no reason you can't indulge yourself fully in PT without bereaving your bank account.

When missions are around from the start the market is going to look like it does now for all the unreleased teams. Any random diamond goes for 15-20K. Everyone will try to be a speculator but people who want to actually play the game with these cards are priced out. |

Finally got my hands on one of the diamonds needed to complete Charlie O's A's, that I've been after for what seems like an eternity but has probably only been a week. Not 100% convinced I'll have Baker in my team long term, but if I sell the SE Bender I got as the reward then him and 97 Waddell will have only ended up costing me maybe 15k between them, which is cool with me. Might train him to play SS as he looks great defensively.
More glad just to get a mission done as it feels like I've been stuck for a fair while. This game is pretty frustrating to play tbh, I'm pretty new and I'm already pretty sick of constantly checking the market in the vague hope of that card I need popping up at all, yet alone at an affordable price |

finally nabbed Nellie Fox this morning to finish the Fox to Aparacio mission.... my reward from the Diamond pack: Cisco Carlos (who would have completed that same mission as well.... lol... this game does have a sense of humor at times it seems ).... at least he should fetch a decent price in the AH for me so I can work on the last 3 for Anson to Appling and finally finish off the CWS collection |

If you can find one of the diamonds for the appling mission for under 100K then take it lol. Those guys and aaron/baker have been extinct for months

figure I'll either get lucky at some point, or v21 will come out and it'll be a miracle after that to finish it |

Whoever it was, thank you. Going to get the Diamond Harper to close out the 2019 Phils and get Dykstra. I already have Eric Davis in center, so I will flip Lenny for 20,000PP or so

Luckily for guys like me who are unwilling to pay out the nose, there is a very finite number of guys like you that are.

Unluckily for guys like you and me, the finite number of these cards still appears to be significantly lower than the finite number of guys willing to pay out the nose.

But, with each pack I open my odds get infinitesimally larger at pulling the right card. And with each pack opened by anyone else not keyed into the chatter/missions, odds being decent they are duped by the faulty L7 prices, my odds increase even more. And, of course, when Yankees/Dodgers/Giants/Phillies missions come out the bottleneckers will be somewhat distracted by the next pit to mine for gold. Part of what I like is the hunt. To be victorious on the virtual plains of the OOTP Serengeti with the corpse of the final mission card I need hanging from my agape mouth. You know? Just like that. Maybe I'm not describing that accurately.

So in this vain I have 150k PP on an account I started as soon as OOTP 20 was released and basically haven't touched due to my wife having a baby in April. I'm thinking about opening 150 packs and posting every card pulled here.
Who would be interested in seeing that and also letting me know if any cards are worth more than the last 7? Sent from my SM-G950U using Tapatalk
