Have we figured out why EA changed the AH to where..

You don’t see cards as soon as they are posted? Typically most cards are up for 2 minutes before I see them. Is this the case for everyone?

that was like for me last year too and this year

Yes it random and has a wide range (from like a couple secs up to sometimes like 4 mins) everyone get a different timer on every card posted

Very sus

They did it last year to stop sniping/coin selling.

I've also noticed the "server" delay every time you switch filters. Add to the fact that the filters don't match set requirements, the way they manipulate the auction/sets is so ridiculous and gross

I had heard through the grapevine that they have developed an auto bot that snipes those cards.. if that’s the case, it really is nasty work..

They implemented this at the end of Madden 24. Carried it over to M25 and now M26.

This was the quick fix and (and now extended solution) to preventing cards that could not be sold because they where locked at the minimum. Remember in past years when there was a card that might be worth 800k, but you could only post it for 100 coins because some idiot messed with the AH buy relisting it at minimum?

Of course this also made the big snipes more rare since it helped the poor souls who accidently missed the extra zero to be able to cancel the listing. . . I remember in M24 when Gutfoxx was complaining on stream on how he hated that EA added this, and mid sentence he accidently posted a 950,000 card for 95,000. He then jokingly praised EA for this fix.

As long as everyone is initially seeing the cards at the same time, I don’t have a problem with it.. but if different folks are able to see the cards earlier than others, yeah there’s a big problem with that..

people definitely have different timers. must be randomly generated because a week ago i was looking to buy chase brown, refreshing Mut.gg and was seeing 59 mins 35k and refreshing on PS5, no auction for that price was there. kept refreshing on PS5 and mut.gg, he sold on mut.gg before i even saw him. was only seeing 56 mins 

then a few mins later, i catch a 59 mins on PS5 for 33k

Same thing happened to me yesterday before work. Adrian Peterson was going for like 256k. Never saw it on the AH. Refreshed on Mut.gg and it was gone.

They changed it to prevent player selling...or telling buddy right when you posted it so he refreshed 1 second later.

One benefit of this for casuals is if you accidentally list a 450k card for 250k you have a minute to cancel it.  In the old day before you could even open your binder again it was gone.

Lol ap was going for 230k this morning

Btw I think the more your price deviates from the median or mean the longer it takes to show up
