    No you can't and it's a bad idea to implement. It's how black markets develop

      Then of course, you'd have to do the same with the player you're sending over.

      It could definitely work, but very tedious
      Why in the word would someone want to do this rather than simply buging a player off the market. Plus the risk of being scammed. The only way trading players makes sense is if the game actually has the option to trade players. Coming from a madden guy, using the market as a trade tool is asking to get scammed.

        The market doesn't work that way. You can only "sell now" for the highest listed price. You can't just pick and choose. If you want Trout, you're either going to have to work the market or buy stubs. This plan of yours isn't feasible by any means.

          People are missing my point. Let's just say someone wants my two gold cards and some silvers for Trout or another Diamond player. In theory, we could agree on a price to sell all of the players for and I would go to sell now for whatever the price was agreed upon. We would do this until all the cards were traded.

          As an Angels fan, I'm never going to get Trout because he's so darn expensive so unless I get incredibly lucky, I will never be able to complete the mission of getting all the Angels or any of the teams with diamond players for that matter. Same goes if you are a Nationals fan or Orioles fan or whatever.

            I don't think u know how the market works. You can't put a sell order below the lowest sell now. The lowest trout can sell for eight now is 91k. If u try 500 it will say there is a better option

              I'm afraid you are still mistaken. What you are suggesting simply cannot be done.

              Go ahead. Try it. Go to the marketplace and try to sell any random card for an amount different than the highest sell now order. It absolutely, positively, 100% cannot be done.

              I already have Trout and Harper and have completed both the Angels and Nationals sets, so it can be done without some inane workaround. Especially one that won't work.

                Oh okay. Sorry I am new to Diamond Dynasty. How did you manage to get Trout and Harper? Did you just pay real money to get all those stubs? You really think like at 1 or 2 a.m. people are going to be sitting on diamond players page and just staring at it for hours and hours hoping the price goes down?

                  Trout is currently at 105000. At 1-2 AM he'll likely cost the same. See the trends: http://theshownation.com/market/details?id=18515.

                  If you put in a sell order for 5000 (or whatever you mentioned) all the orders higher than your order would need to be fulfilled before anyone gets to your order. For Trout, at least, the order list likely will never shrink down to zero orders. So, you likely will never be able to sneak in a 5000 order for a card like Trout unless it's an extremely rare occurrence. Hope this makes sense.

                    I have several ways that I have acquired cards. Bottom line is that unless you start working the market (which you need a good amount of stubs to start doing) and/or buy some stubs, you're not going to get him unless you hit the lottery and pull him out of a pack or get him as a log-in reward.

                    Even if your theory worked, nobody in their right mind is just going to gift him to you out of thin air. The cheapest you are ever going to get Trout for while the game is still hot will be around 90k. Maybe 80k by the All-Star break and that is the absolute minimum.

                      okay so I need a good amount of stubs. What is a good amount? You don't want to tell me your strategy on how to get Trout?

                        I would at least try to build up your stubs to a good round number like say 100,000 and then decide what to do next. There's no strategy to get Trout. Just put in a buy order and hope it's fulfilled.

                        Last year I was attempting to complete the Pirates collection so I had to find a way to get McCutchen at 45,000. I ended up earning stubs via marketplace so I could afford to make a buy order (45k) that would be fulfilled.

                        I can't speak for anyone else but on dedicated days I think I can earn at least 10-15K stubs from buying low and selling high.

                          I need to learn how to fllip cards. It takes me like 30 min just to get 500 stubs playing DD conquest. Clearly, that's not how you make a lot of stubs.
