Market Place doesn't give full value?

[WillGio]

So today I bought Andrew McCutchen before I played a game. Then as post-game reward I got Mookie Betts, so I decided I might as well resell McCutchen. So I go, and put him on the market, and I actually sell it for more than I bought it. But then I realized, the numbers didn't add up. I should have made a 1800 stub profit, but I didn't see any gain in my inventory.

I thought I may have made a mistake, so I tried it again with another player; Bought low, sold high. And the same thing happened again.

Did they patch something or take away the ability to flip a player quickly? Because I actually think I've lost 2000 stubs in the last couple of hours, when I should have gained that.

EDIT: I also took into account the tax they put on sales. So it's not that.

Sure you are doing the right math?

profit = 0.9 x (sell amount) - (purchase amount)

which gives a very different answer from

profit = 0.9 x (sell amount - purchase amount)

Re: Market Place doesn't give full value?

you have to factor in the game taking 10percent cut. so if you sell for example a player you bought for 10k and sold him for 11k the game takes 1100 stubs therefore you just lost 100 stubs.

I've made 25k flipping cards last night TS, don't see the issue.
