Fifa 11 Ultimate Team: The best bargain signings for the PS3 version (with auction photos)
If you're anything like me then you will currently be engrossed in Fifa 11 Ultimate team. It's quite simply the most addictive game i've played for years and is sometimes impossible to drag yourself away from (i'm having withdrawal symptoms as a type this) You can even trade on your laptop now with EA's new Web App so it eats up even more of my life than it did before.
In the week that it's been out i've been wheeling, dealing and learning as much as i can. In this hub i'm going to share with you the best bargain players that i have come across so far on the PS3 version.
Over a period of 7 hours i merely observed and studied the UT market without buying or selling (sad i know). This was to try to find who the best players are to buy for cheap and sell for a profit. I have included photos which although aren't of the best quality as they were taken with my phone prove that these players can earn you plenty of coins if you're patient.
So here goes. These were my findings in the hunt for a bargain.
Nani: (Portugal) LW - Man Utd
I found that you can normally pick Nani up for 16,000/17,000 coins and get around 22,000 when selling him. A nice cool profit of 5/6,000 coins if you have the money to buy him or get him in a pack like i did the other day.
Pepe: (Italy) RM - Juventus
Some of the players on the list don't make as much as others but if you have 3 or 4 of them then it all starts to add up. Pepe is one of these players. He can be picked for 400/500 coins and be sold for 1000/1200.
Stilian Petrov: (Bulgaria) CM - Aston Villa
Petrov is one player i've made quite a few coins from. At one point i had 7 up for grabs on the trade pile. If you can get him for anything below 700 then he's worth it as he can normally fetch 1200 from buy now.
Diego: (Brazil) CAM - VFL Wolfsburg
I was lucky enough to get Diego in a premium gold pack and he sold for 9,500 coins. As these photos show he can be picked up for around 5000 on occasions so if you get the chance then snap him up at that price.
Danny: (Portugal) CAM - Zenit St Petersburg
Danny is a strange one. He's got an overall of 82 and great stats but he can be picked up for anything between 2000 and 8000 coins. There is definitely a profit to be made if you get him at the right price. I sold him for 4,500 but i wish i'd have hung on for more.
Jenas: (England) CM - Tottenham Hotspur
Jenas is one that you have to be patient with when you have him. You can quite easily pick him up for under 500 coins and i have been getting 1000 from buy now when selling him back on. He doesn't always sell first time but he does sell given time.
Martin Petrov: (Bulgaria) LM - Bolton
The other Petrov has also been making me a steady income of coins over the last few days. I tend to buy a few of this card and make between 200 and 400 profit on each one. Easy money.
Diawara: (Senegal) CB - OM (Marseille)
Can be picked up for anything between 500/600 and 2000. Very erratic in how much he goes for. Worth bidding for if he's cheap.
Gourcuff: (France) CAM - OL (Lyon)
If you can get Gourcuff for under 10,000 then you're onto a winner. Can be sold for between 14,000 and 16,000 usually.
Sturridge: (England) ST - Chelsea
Another one that i have been doing quite well out of. Sometimes he's available for 500 and other times people are fighting it out to get him for 2000.
Juan: (Brazil) CB - Roma
Last but not least is Roma's Juan. Buy for a couple of thousand and sell on for 2000/3000 profit. Job's a good un.
So that's 11 players that i followed through a 7 hour period and they were the results. There are so many bargains to be had out there if you look for them.
If you can get Arshavin for under 30,000 coins then you have got a good deal, or Izmailov (Sporting) for around 400 you can normally sell him on for 1000 just as you can with Derbyshire (Birmingham). I personally think the key to whole thing is patience. If your player doesn't go the first time then don't panic and start dropping the price. Just because he doesn't go in that auction doesn't mean he won't the next time you put him up. For example one day i couldn't sell Petrov (Aston Villa) quick enough for 1200 coins (I think i shifted 5 at that price) but the next day people weren't even willing to bid the initial 900 coins that he was up for.
Other players who are worth buying to bulk up your squad are players like Niang (Fenerbahce) who's a brilliant all round striker and can be bought for 2500 coins quite often. Another great all round striker is Kenwyne Jones (Stoke) and can always be bought for 2000 or lower. Great in the air and fast. Mikel from Chelsea is another bargain for between 2500 and 3000 on most occasions, or Hleb (Birmingham) for a similar price or even Etherington (Stoke) for around 700 coins. One that always baffles me is why people pay more for someone like Bojan (Barcelona) when there is just as good in his position who are often cheaper like Jovetic (Fiorentina) and Nihat (Besiktas)
Remember that The Ultimate team market is an ever changing place so the prices i have put in this hub are never a guaranteed thing. Just to clarify again, the photo's in this hub are not players that i have bought and sold. They are just auctions that i have followed throughout the day.
Thanks for reading my hub. I hope that you found it useful. If you want a great read and some brilliant tips on Ultimate team then Warchild75s hubs are superb. Here's his latest on Fifa 11 Ultimate team
If you have any bargain stories of your own then why not let me know in the comments below. Thanks again.

I got Diego for 1,200
hey >>>
Hello mate! Was reading this great hub again, as i restarted my ultimate team career! I was down to -50.000 profit, but in just 4 days i've made it to 40.000 which i believe is quite good. I did so, using bronze and silver player method, and i now feel ready to take the next step to gold players, so i was actually just wondering if you're still playing, and had some tips.
Hope you're doing well!
About 70,000 - 90,000
depending on the time of day
I would put it on for 70,000 start price in the morning and leave it for 12 hours (this way you'll attract more buyers)
How much should i get for an in form hernandez 85 rating?
I have got a 86 rated Sagna. How much should he be going for? Iv looked on the market and people have him listed at 150000 but there are no offers. Any1 got any ideas?
Avrage price for him is 1500
how much would gourcuff go for now? cos i bought 2 for 2500. will i make profit?

psn still isn bak
The PSN will not take 4 months to fix.. It may take upto another 10 days or so or even only one or two. It depends on how big the problem is and how quickly they can fix it and also they said they're just aiming to fix the PSN so we can get on it as quickly as possible and once it's working they will fix the rest e.g. PS Home & PS Store.
No psn is down nd is been said that it will take 4 months to fix the problem wat am I goin to do all I do is play online I'm goin to be sooooooooo borreed :(:(:(:(

I find it so hard to sell player's on the FUT Market (especially because i own a PS3, and everybody tells me that the market is better at Xbox).
For example, I tried to sell Fellaini and Van de Sar, both for a starting price of 1000(i bough them for that price) and a BIN of 2000, 1 hour later, the both didn't sell.
I've been reading some of your hubs, but I would appreciate if you cold give me some tips to improve my selling techniques.

Cammy D43: how much are you wanting for navas?
scoty: normally you won't find managers in formations other than 442 and 41212 because that's what most people use and bother to change them to. you just gotta buy a training card.
dose any one know what manger uses the 4231 formation ? i cant find one :(
hey does anyone want a jesus navas cause i gt him in a pack but already have arjen robben and also does anyone have any midfeilders ovr86 or more if so reply and i will give u an offer . thanks
dunno if anyone's still on here, but anyone got ideas of how to make money to afford evra, baines if, and alves in defence?
@guy Well I buy packs and sometimes get silver players worth 10k to 20 k and I make 5k to 30k a day depends how long I go on and how lucky I am :) I just need to know what good players to get :)
Got Modric for 2500 and put starting price 7000 and BIN 15000.
Is that just wishful thinking or could it happen. Also have Niko Kranjcar up starting price 1300 and BIN 1600

I only need to get up to 40000 from 7500, any ideas for the market?
Anyone got any ideas of what to get Ive made 80k this week with bronze packs and buying and trading but I dunno who to get :(
Got Gallas for 950 and sold him for 2,000 in about 4 tries
Eddie69 hey dude, it took me a while to figure out what to do with the contracts and i figured out that when u starting to play ultimateteam game u got noobi players and no money to spend on new because u have to pay contracts so.... because your a new player u have golden players but noobi one so if a player cost 300-500 and u like him and u dont want to replace him but he have no contracts- u put him on sell for starting price of 150 and for buy now for 500-650 so if he cost u 300 when u bought him with contracts and now he doesnt have any u can still sell him for the same price, and then buy a new one. its that simple!
did u understend?
b.t.w try to buy them with 14+ contract instead of 7 so they can last longer...
okay?
thanks sold sold nani at32,500 made 14k profit thanks for the help
Hello people, im struggling abit on this FiFa UT, i have won 9 trophies upto now, but every time i go to make so money i will have to spend quiet a few grand on the contracts to make a few of my rubbish gold players like bridge, is there any way around this,? were i can get alot of decent contracts instead of buyin them when i win a tournament...? i dont really want to use the contracts that will bost 23 games because i think it will be a waste ?? when ill be gettin better players ssooon, thanks !
Yoo

Help: It's probably best to wait until the PS3 is back up after the update as i think they might be upgrading and downgrading certain players (for instance, Wilshere is supposedly going from a 75 to 80 ov) Don't know whether it's 100% accurate but i'm trying to get rid of the players i've got first and then see what this new upgrade brings later tonight. Thanks for reading matey.
who are players who make a good profit at the moment then ?
@abc123 you cud try get silva cheap
I have 23000 who should i buy and sell ???
Who should i buy and sell for 10000 ?
- AUTHOR
jeevez: Seems as though he's up mostly for around 7/8k on the market at the minute. Hope that helps matey.
gt buffon in a gold pack yesterday n was wonderin what he could go for? min/max??
Aaargh!! So annoying trying to complete my squad! I only need another 20k which I was generating easily with Milners, but it's slowed down again... Bought a Bosingwa RB for 4000, didn't go for 7000 or 6500 BIN, so now up for 5500 6000 BIN if anyone interested. Also have a Milner 3500 3750 BIN for sale.
- AUTHOR
Abc123: Seems to be a lot better matey
Misaak8: Been selling cassano, defoe, milner and vermaelen for 3.5/4k mate. Bosingwa (Rb) for 6/7k.
FC KABOM: Thanks a lot mate, no problem at all. Great team you have got there too, plenty of pace. Will give you a game sometime mate, just go easy on me ha ha.
robbie: Thanks a lot mate, the support much appreciated. There should be a couple of hubs coming soon. Been a little inactive on hubpages just lately but will be back up and at em again soon. Thanks for reading.
Sutty: Gourcuff price seems to have dropped a lot since i last looked but you could possibly still get 2.5/3k for him. Petrov only tends to go for between 500 and 1000, and i'd be looking to fetch 1/1.5k for danny unless he's got a preferred formation of 41212 then you can possibly get a bit more. Hope that helps buddy.
Hi, great hub! I just got Gourcufff for 2,000 BIN, Stilyian Petrov, and Danny but do not not what prices to sell for, any ideas?
fifajunkie, same thing happend to me the other night had just spent 12000 on VDV and i could select him from the watch list i was going out of my mind lol signed out from UT n back in and all was ok then it did the same when i bough berbatov for 3000 lol. this market crash is great for buying players to go straight into a team but not when you have just spent 20,000 coins to hopefully make 13,000 profit and no1 is buying... i have 3 adebayor and 3 di maria all 10,000 BIN 12000 not a sniffle!!!! Fuller_legend and Warchild you guys are amazing thanks for so much of your time to help us brainwashed followers of FIFA!!!!
Hello Fuller, how is it going? first of all, thank you for giving tips for newbies like me to get around in UT. atm, i couldn't get crazy good deals like some people have (though i did get Van Persie on my first gold pack, sold for 18000). It seems now that players prices has gone down and contracts has gone up.
Since i watch EPL, i usually trade their players (MU,MC,Arsenal and Chelsea sold best for me). Here's my team atm:
Form: 4-4-2 Man: Redknapp
GK - Given
LB - Assou Ekotto
CB - Hangeland, Vermaelen
RB - Micah Richards
LM - Nani
CM - Van der Vaart, Fletcher
RM - Valencia
ST - Bent, Chamakh
Right now i need Evra and Essien to complete it (though my whole team now cost me less than 45k). I use my 2nd team (Port. league 4-5-1, less than 15k) as subs and reserves so I'll never have to buy fitness card. Hopefully i can play online with you guys sometime, Cheers.
hey fuller, how much have you been selling those players mentioned for. im not sure how much to sell them for so can you help me out?
Fuller, is the market back to what it used to be so we can trade to make coins again ?
- AUTHOR
How's it going people? Who's everyone finding best to trade then at the minute? I'm still finding milner, vermaelen, bosingwa, defoe, and cassano to be my easiest sellers. I'm still trying the gold pack route though, trading a few players and then buying packs because i'm finding i haven't got the patience to get to the 300k i need for rooney. Hopefully i'll get an IF Rooney in a pack this week ha.
luckily my players that were stuck last night are now back in my club phew i stood to lose a lot of coins there !!!

Iv just picked up terry for 15k how much should he sell for?
so after restarting and not playing for two weeks because of bad tourneys finnaly played for 3 days and i have a 79 rated club 100 chem all epl and almost two people for each position
I cant get rid of anelka or malouda put them up for auction 5 times now and nothing. Any ideas?
Have a 152k nd my team is :
Buffon
zanttei lucio chellne thigo sliva
Cambisso
krasic. Vargas
Sneijder
Milto. Ibramivoic
got a team rating of 84 chemistry 80
sorry chris Im working on the higher end of the market to be honest, but Nani seems to be selling well again, can be picked up for around 5k and sold for up to 7k depending on formation. I now have enough cash to buy Rooney that I have been saving for ages, but i dont whether to hold out for Drogba hmmmmmm
now I need to make 75000 starting with about 8000... any idea now the markets starting to ressettle?
do you reckon they'll up suarez's stats for the liverpool version like they did when mascherano left for barcelona?
gt Gomes for 900 n Nesta for around 650... think thtz decent 4 those 2 :D
How much should you get for Samuel and David Luiz? Just got them both from a gold pack.
who do you people are the best players to sign and make a profit on?
depends on formation, if you need a CM then buy Xavi, but as a CAM Iniesta is better, but in my opinion Kaka is as good if not better and only about 80K.
Is iniesta or xavi better, if iniesta is he worth 30000 more or not ?
I heard same thing Misaak, but I also looked at team of the week and apart from berbatov Im not interested in any of the players in team of the week, so I guess I would only sell them on, also the podcast says you are 3 times more likely to get an IF player, well I have spent thousands on packs and never had one, and 3 times zero is still zero, so we will have to see what happens lol
i was listening to the podcast and at friday between 6pm and 7pm london time the chances of getting an if will be tripled. also, my team is nowhere near complete! i still need Berbatov IF, Rooney, Tevez, RVP, Essien and Barry IF
850
