1. When would be this best time?
2. I'm more than happy to keep them for a while as will allow me to win a few games!
3. How do I know if its a 'good' or 'bad' time?
4. So it's not Luke real life where most are done during offseason? I thought I might have been getting these guys at the perfect time to sell to someone for next year!
5. What's the best way to sell guys?? I have a mate that plays this game and he reckons the best way to get profits when selling people is to put the starting price just below the recommended price as this way you will get people into a bidding war and go over this amount! What do you guys think? I can see the logic behind it but am a little skeptical!

I guess I will find out when I put these guys back up! What do you think would be the best time to sell them? I think I might put them up Thursday, so I don't have to pay their salary!

Good idea???

Or is it better to wait until they get back to 100%???

no one will be looking to buy in the next week or so. They cant play playoffs and no one is going to spend much money for a week or 2. It all comes down to what people want at the time. The last week before the new season starts and then the 1st couple of weeks are a good period. Next is just before the playoff time so teams can pick them up to in time for playoffs.

Sometimes putting a higher min bid will mean people just over look. Some teams just list guys at a high price each week and hope someone sells them. Buying and selling players is not the best way to make money. Best way is put everything into your arena and keep you player salary as low as (close to salary floor) while training a couple of guys up. Then when they are ready to go you can grab 1 or 2 good player with money made and win the league and be ready for next level of leagues.

If you can sell that player for enough money that paying the players salary for the length of time it will take to get it back to 97% of the money being yours then do that, however i dont think you will get that with your players. so selling for any profit ASAP might be best.

I hope you make me eat my words, but i highly highly doubt that you will sell that 26yr old $6k PF for anywhere close to what you paid.

Ok thanks for the help guys. Depending on the outcome, this might be the last time I try this. But with the guy you guys are talking about his recommended price was 150 - 250. I thought if I buy him cheapish then sell him towards the top end of these prices would work well.

Maybe you guys could help this experiment and take these guys off my hands!

this Monday is the last time you can get draft points and the draft will happen at end of season about a week later.

No sorry that guy would not even be a back up for me in Div III

Oh sweet. Can get a couple more draft points. I thought he was really good. All of his skill points add up to 90.

the issue with him is his spread of skills. His def is outside but his attack is inside. Would be good in Div IV but anything higher would only be a back up SF. Which will limit his value to most teams. The issue with player values listed is it only looks at top skill, total skills, age and potential. So someone with a poor build is listed in a range were other players might be built better.
You might be lucky but I doubt you will get your money back. I would hang onto him for now and use him as needed.
