The Snipe Thread

[jackstone567]

I've got a lot of snipes, might find all the files sometime and post. This morning I got a doorbuster Kawhi for 500k which hasn't been on the market at all for months. Then I realised the 81 cap was 500k anyway lmao still a snipe cause it would be worth more.

I've seen it since the bot but like you said the cap for him is that of a regular 81 that is 86 at level 6 not an 81 that is a 95 at level 15

Two Fire Simmons for 7.8m and 6m back to back... I love these packs

For how much did you sell those cards? I sniped one for 4,5 M ( bb one, which is more valuable than classic one)

U shd be able to easily get 12-15 mill

I wish I could snipe. Whenever I think I get a snipe, prices drop and I'm at a loss.
Still waiting to find an MVP Harden for 50 mil, as in, everything I have to get it.

Global prices are insane. How can you make so much money on some of these cards? You guys are literally selling cards for 10M+ that people struggle to get 1M for on Asia right now.

No idea. Finally sold that 101 KAT for 30m which I ended up losing 13m. Still have 140m sitting with tons of rare cards on my bench because of the prices I can sell these cards from these packs

I am guessing the amount of cards with abilities that you guys have there in Asia is a factor.

the only AH cards with abilities are the Simmons and Iversons besides awards cards that are in limited amount as well.
and a BB Simmons is picked immediately.

There will be about 5000 people reaching legend in showdown this season so it seems there are enough players rising in the 'midrange' overalls that sustain the prices of high elites.

the only 'big market depression' we had came in the playoffs. we never had 90 ovrs at the same prices since then.
golds are always a weird thing this season, often at prices that make pro packs always good even with bad pulls, and there's more to explain.

and even in an apparently unimpressive promo, 3 toty 91 pulls are leading to 4M profit, so even in a free experience, training the valuable cards, and very limited sniping - I basically did it for MVP KD's pieces - playing daily, we have conditions to have a good amounts of coins. I wouldn't mind getting that 92ovr Lowry for 10M to train.

I remember quitting during RTTP and coming back for a day during Playoffs. Rip Hamilton sitting for 600k was one of the first things I saw

People are only prepared to pay 200-300K for TOTY elites on Asia. I suspect it's because of the Showdown bonus since they spent more on the Award Winners elites.

There is very little interest in the Flashback elites. They go unsold for under IM most of the time. TOTW store cards are slightly more popular and there is the occasional interest in a Signature card but it seems like most people view them as determinantal to their OVR.

We have about 1/8 of the global Showdown numbers. I'm not sure we've ever had a week where the top 1000 all made Legend. It may happen this time as a lot of people used the Award WInners boost. I am sitting at 1.6M fans and I'm in the top 600.
