NBA Top Shot - High Risk, High Reward?

Lots of manual users going for those cheap ones as well. Bots will always be there but it at least seems like it getting better.

I have no idea if they can or can't. It shouldn't be too hard as if you change the length, the starting point or the angle of a moment, it stops being unique. So I imagine there's nothing stopping them from doing it down the line.

Last time updating(will do it once a month IF I continue to use it etc.). I wanted to do it one last time to show what it says when you do an offline transaction. PP sent to me, I gift to the member.

Not sure how that can be read as it's against any rules. It reads as they aren't responsible and that's all.

FWIW, I know for a fact they put that disclaimer up on the page because in the official discord a ton of people were getting scammed doing offsite transactions a couple of weeks ago. They didn't do it to reiterate any TOS violations. They even removed the trading section from discord and I believe told the refs to stop facilitating trades as middlemen.

TS is going bonkers right now. Just WoW.

Impatiently waiting for the next super gold holo limited $999.99 pack offering.


My initial $50k profit goal is not enuff.

Yeah, it doesn't read like it's against Terms of Service. That's great news, I'm definitively in if that's acceptable.

I don't know they don't seem manual to me lol, I was refreshing on the same moment page also to see what would happen and everything sells out, could be manual but the odds of them all going so fast with me reloading like that is a bit odd.

Roger. Sadly everything is so expensive right now that even though I'm playing with monopoly money I'm not sure what to buy. Except packs, obviously those are easy money for the time being, if you can get them.

[mossoholic]

Trying to figure this out. Can't buy a moment because of "under going maintenance". Can't buy in either. it says dapper currently unavailable. This is like trying to learn rocket science.

There are soo many manual users updating, myself included. I only purchase below market and when I see a great deal I only end up getting it 10% of the time. Today my only good deal was I got a Giannis /7500 for $92. I see how people are manipulating the market and I joined in on one. VanVleet's were going for $5 to $6 and I bought 20 of them. I saw a few people buying them and fixing the price at $20 to drive up their profit. It doesn't take much to manipulate prices if you know what you are doing.

We are fighting with literally thousands of people, sometimes much more for cards. Plus the market manipulation is organized and obvious. Curry and Durant prices dropped big time, but I could see people were selling cards at a loss to try to get others to panic so they could buy more at a discount. The market is really fascinating to me.

Right now the smart money is to cash out the crazy high prices for the /15000 and low serial numbers and put the money into /7500 LE and Series 1. That is where I am putting my monopoly money.

Dip those knuckles in coal and then wait.

There are 10,000 buyers right now. There are 7 billion people on the planet.

This is an easy math problem.

Pleasant to video. Seen this on discord.
even learned about some moments to look at.

Thanks for that perspective, if that's the case that's really nuts, you got a lot of determination to stick to it and find those little windows of opportunity. I bought a few and made some flips, nothing huge but I also won't be too risky cause I'm not sure where this is all going. I'll say this though, I only put $9 into this thing a few months ago, my balance is around $200 right now and I have like 10 things in my collection still, I'd say I made off pretty good
And I agree about the market manipulation, it happens in so many different markets but especially applies to this.

Thanks ESPN

Wow...I actually hadn't logged into my TS account for over a week (been busy with cardboard), but the handful of moments I do own are all way up for sure...especially the LE's and Cool Cats.

It's definitely interesting to note.

Time to worry?

Thanks! Was wondering how people with thousands of moments were figuring this out so quickly lol.


So for my $45 so far I'm at $722 value according to this site, and I have $166 sitting in my dapper acct, waiting for the chance I actually get to purchase more packs, one can only hope.

This is an easy math problem.

10k/7 billion = 0.0000143

If Luka/15000+ is $175 now, when everyone on Earth adopts topshot (mid-June at the latest) I should be looking at a ~$12.2 million card.

Bazinga

Edit: Sorry, missed a zero. $122 million

If port sales go according to plan, I will begin referencing myself in 3rd person as the




I expect to be addressed as such at all future Nationals and e-clecter events.

Awesome, thanks for this site. Crazy to see someone with $14 million valuation
