Sell my TOTS investments now and take the L or wait until next weeks Ultimate TOTS?

Right, the title pretty much sums it up. I invested all my coins in high rated TOTS players on Thursay, thinking to flip them on Monday night, just like the weeks before. Worked perfectly so far but now the market has gone mad and everything dropped big time, even with two garantueed TOTS SBCs available.

So the question is, do I still sell them now despite making quite a big loss (10-15k per card, over 20 in total) due to the World Cup mode coming up or do I risk it and wait another week for the garantueed SBCs of the Ultimate TOTS with Ronaldo, Messi etc. in it? People want to get a chance of them high rated blues. And the requirements will be higher than 1TOTS / 84 rating I think.

A little help or advice would be appreciated. Cheers.

    I know. But I do have a feeling they will go back up coming next week when the Ultimate TOTS is in packs and people see that blue Ronaldo, Messi, Neymar etc. that they can pack in a garantueed SBC. The question is, if people even have any coins left then after burning countless WC packs... so no buying power.


    Ahhh... I'm not sure.

    They can’t drop much lower so the difference of what they are now to what they could drop to to what they could potentially rise to due to the ult sbc is a risk worth taking.
    I’d keep them for the sake of a week mate

    Thats the typcial anarach who is on these forums etc. what about the casuals that genuinely dont pack a tonne of tots via the upgrades or have already used them up. Buying up those rare golds are annoying. If the sbc requires 3-4 tots..they are bounds to rise but again to what levelmi am not sure

    So people seem to be like 50/50 if the TOTS cards will rise coming next week just like I am :D

    Oh man. I was certain they would fly up big time (up to 70k, bought for ~55k) with not one but two garantueed SBCs available right now and on Tuesday. But I guess the hype and anticipation for the WC update is too strong. The market got absolutely killed. Ronaldo for less than 500k right now is mental. When did that happen before? Maybe back in FIFA 12 when there were much less coins around and no seasons or even WL.

    Will decide during the day if I'll sell and take the L or be risky and wait another week. Hm...

    would also like to know if TOTS son will drop even more in price. Bought him for 675k and he's going for 400k at the momen. I can't see him go much lower but i'm unsure because of WC.. some opinions on this maybe?

    Honestly I do believe he will go lower coming tomorrow because everyone needs/wants coins instead of players for opening packs in the WC mode. So they undercut. And everything becomes even cheaper.

    Me personally I only have high rated (91+) "discard" TOTS, and absolutely nothing else that's tradeable in the club. But even those discard TOTS dropped from 55-58k on Thursday last week to now 47k. I am not sure if they can go much lower than that because you will definetely still need them for the garantueed SBCs.

    It's really hard to predict what will happen I think.

    Everyone has TOTS cards they've been practically given away and the market is flooded with them as well.

    Hold. WC is going to be rubbish and everyone will come running back in time for WL. At which stage ultimate tots will be out and they will be worth more

    Wondering if tots Promes hype will drive up my Russian tots players up (even a bit)?

    I mean they are great (Farfan being the best of the bunch, SMolov and Kokorin are also very decent, even more so if considering the price) but since I am short on coins. Lost a bunch on my LaLiga team (Cr7 bought at 880k, Messi at 290k and Suarez at 1,33M, so you get the picture :/ ) , but would still like to try out few decent cheap-ish tots players.

    I'm in the same boat as most are.
    I don't think there is anything to gain by selling. You'll need at least 4 cards next week so there is a chance they will rise. I don't think they will go down. We will see but I'm keeping mine

    Right. I have decided to sell some of my discard TOTS cards tonight and take the loss (about 10k each) on them. Just to be liquid with a couple of 100k coins heading into tomorrow. Then I will probably invest in 82-86 rated normal gold cards cause I believe they will be cheaper tomorrow than they ever were and ever will be in FIFA 18. What people seem to forget is, you don't just open packs on the WC mode but the same pack on regular FUT as well. The market will be flooded and so prices will drop even more for players that are in packs.

    So yeah... I think that is the way to go.

    Take the loss like I did, sucks but so does this game so who cares.

    People are going to be opening packs in mass during WC mode and on Friday, there won't be any shortage of junk TOTS cards for Ultimate SBCs.

    I don't think they can go much lower, may as well hold and risk it

    If you need the coins sell, if you don't then hold. I can see a drop over the next few days potentially as WC mode drops but they should rise after that.

    Hold until next week unless you need the coins. EA could do something crazy like repeatable SBC for ultimate. Players being put into SBCs means people buying more packs, so I can see EA doing it. Two or three TOTS so people can’t just recycle until the get the on they want.
