how can i stop these bidding wars? i just literally wasted 100 tokens to bid on someone
You cannot. Try to control yourself and stay within the limits of your budget. Set appropriate ranges for the amount of tokens to be spent on a desperately needed player, and important player and a backup player, and do not go outside range. If you let yourself carried away, you will probably way overpay for a player.
For example, 25-30T, 15-25T and 1-15T.
Look at this example. I gave up because a bit more tokens than that (79T) I could get a 19 y.o AML/ML with special ability and near 1 star better if such a player shows in the weekly recommendation list. Had I continued to overbid, the other user would have continued because he was bidding like crazy with big additions of tokens. Suppose that I way overpaid for this player, I would still need to add an extra position, a special ability and boost his quality to make his profile close to what I want. The total cost will be really too much.

Another case of a bidding war.

Cmon..... if the round goes over 50T just switch to scouts page..... xD
The scouts aren't bad at all, my son keeps buying some with good results
I hate the stupid idiots who like to bid with 1 f ing second to go in the transfer market. I hate those people I was just ready to put him in my squad then an idiotic team that has a better player for that position and is abandoned swoops in and overtakes me in the auction just for the fun of it. I hate people that do that because now I have the pure pleasure of having to keep going for at least another hour to find someone that good.
This is the guy right here

And on the market, try not to go for the 5* players. People often only look at star-ratings and not at %, so they will bid 20-50 tokens for a 81% player, but a 79% (almost 5*) you can easily get for under 5 tokens. So go for the high % 4* players or even 3*, if you have alot of greens and wanna train their important white skills yourself.
I go for higher 5 star players 96-99% almost all the time, considering I am a freeloader, it will be the best chance I have at winning things. I also try to go for players 25 and under. Even if have let’s say 30 tokens and I bid 30 on a player I always find that somebody will always have 1 more than you even if you had 100, someone almost always has 101 and overtakes you on a player. I spend an hour on trying to buy players, and when you get the player you are looking for. I am just glad to get off the market, then I farm more tokens and go back on to see if I can find another good player. I always hate the players that bid with 1 second to go. I think that they should bring in manager chat for the game so you can talk to other managers for negotiation and just to talk to them if you want. And maybe talk about troll results both of you suffered [emoji13]

Today I got a good and a bad example
I went to my son's account to try and hire the GK he is looking for, got a 18y.o 93% for 12 tokens, 100 greens later he had one-to-one defender and 100% :D
After that i bid a 97% 19 y.o AMC (he already has two) for 16 tokens just to monitor from the list thinking he'd be bought for much more and ended up buyinf him GRRRRRRR

Still 9 seconds to go. Wonder what he eventually went for? :D
He 's just spending his tokens before leaves the game.
@SuperDunk had a much better exodus

Bidding wars still going on; today, someone went upto 100T for a triple position attacker with special ability. I bade 101T, and won. ;)
Nik, upto how far you would go in the auction of an 18 y.o AMR/ST/AML (Shadow Striker) with top market value in the auction list?
Maybe 50 .
I stopped at 43 here

I have some thousand tokens to spend but it's a matter of principles.
I play as a wealthy team 35 t contract +30 daily box + 50 from Gold1 + miscellaneous + 100 tokens from a monthly card (but I have them for free as a mod)
and I try to stay there (or to save few).
My challenge in TE is to earn titles and do a good sources management .
I went to 101T (as shown in the fast trainer thread), but I admit I over did it considering the risk of the player being less than a fast trainer. The other bidder stopped at 100T. I needed a very good player for AML and this one seems he can fit in on the left wing till I get the AML/AMC or AML/ML I want, and then I will move him to AMR.
i had dream last night about that
Some high bids still present despite that it is the 3rd week of the season.

I 'm permanently tanking so the last 2 days I 'm searching for some good cases.
After the end of negotiations, even the last day of the season you can't find players like him with less than 12-15 tokens.
Yeah, but to spend 30 or so tokens at this time of the season with the risk later that he could be a slow trainer is a bit too much. If such a player turns out to be a slow trainer, he probably will be not much useful to those that play a certain way. I had two players that turned out to be slow ones and they rarely played a game this season itself, and they cannot be of much use next season given that they will lag too much in quality.
But then some players aren’t bothered about whether they are fast trainers or not and are just plugging gaps as a temporary measure or bringing in fresh blood or are tanking the season. What I’m saying though is that 28T is not unusual these days for an 18yo.
