Why are people looking at the prices on the low end?
Doesn't this mean that a 'farm team' trains up a guy (or looks after a player) whilst he is sitting on $400k salary - he then leaves the game and that guy then hits the TL at $4mil? If this is the case it should make the mid range players (sorry my mid range may differ from a lot so I'll just say $50-150k wage) more valuable?

I would expect this to allow people to detect farm teams easier and this will flush out the monsters of the game that are being built with alot of collusion by clever NT's. Now they have to keep physically listing them.

Gotta say was hoping for some upgrades/improvements.... nice idea but not edge of the seat stuff...

There is a cap at $1mil. So no one will start higher than $1mil.

The maximum opening bid will be $1million, per the News.

Don't ask what sort of Chunks they are, you probably don't want to know. Blowing Chunks since Season 4!

Hey, I like those old players (when the price is right). The problem with those players on the TL is that they tend to get listed way over market value since teams want to cash them out before they lose all value. I'd actually like to see age introduced into the introduction price factor since those old players are the ones that may be most likely to retire with no hope of getting bought. Your example of a $30k player at 32 years old is an excellent one. I could see bidding on a player like that for, say $100k, maybe a little more if he fills a need, since I could get a very useful season or two before his skills start sliding. But at $300k, I'd probably pass. But maybe not everybody would pass, so maybe this system will work out okay in the end.

Don't ask what sort of Chunks they are, you probably don't want to know. Blowing Chunks since Season 4!

It seems the FA and Retired players comes down to, Haves and Have Nots. The players that "have" aren't worried about, and want higher prices. The players that are "have nots", are looking for any help they can get to get out of the bottom leagues.

Yes, we should not have left room for interpretation about that part in the news item. Sorry for being unclear, but that's why we are here to respond, luckely, hehe.
