I think this a great venture for APAT however the mark ups are generally unrealistic. I would love to invest some £££ but doubt I"ll be buying at a premium when you can get similar mark ups on some of the best players in the country. I do understand that this may be more about community spirit.

I believe the going rate for one of the best players* in the country is 1.5  ;D



*still hasn"t won an APAT though  ;)

:) wish I could charge 1.5 as a going rate. Think for the main event it"s a special circumstance cos u can get such a huge return on investment

As one of the senior members George, you should offer your thoughts when people post requests and I think you"ll find that mark ups will reduce to a sensible level as players become more knowledgeable.

I agree, and I hope you win it all.

I was going to try the auction approach but I don"t think we"re quite ready for that here yet. Perhaps something to think about though.

I"m charging 1.18 on my request and I"m sure many people think that"s overpriced and that I"m a bad bet, however those that do invest are only paying a few quid extra for the potential of a decent return. The premium helps cover expenses as well which makes the event affordable for me.Without it I would most likely not be playing it hence the request in the first place.

When someone puts a request up it"s hard to say I think you"re overpriced without looking like a troll.

Maybe put a line in your template asking people to justify any markup ?
