Best time to buy an icon is after 7pm when you've finished work because you would have also have had dinner so you won't have any distractions and you can just enjoy playing with your icon and you don't need to get up till about 9pm when you get ready for bed so you have a nice 2 hours to play fifi
You're welcome
Yeah, slight issue with that, my Xbox is at my house in England, currently im not:)

i think someone said on another thread, its a shame there is no online seasons anymore so you can be earning decent coins from playing whilst you wait, these weekly rewards for Rivals are a bit tame compared to what you could earn in online seasons.
Ill definitely be waiting until Sunday/Monday though.

Last week I had enough coins for 89 Linekar when he was up at about 760. I checked his price on Futbin and that checked in with the average. I had previously placed a few on my watch list to see what they sold at and I noticed one had gone at 738k.
I didn't but him at 760k as I felt it was too high so I waited. The next day on Saturday his price had gone up to 800k. This was understandable due to WL being active so i waited longer. The next day on Sunday when people had started selling of their teams his price went back down to 780k average. I refreshed the market a couple of times and managed to get one for 738k.
I used him for the WL and tbh he wasnt much different to the 87 one. I decided i was going to sell him and managed to sell him for 800k on Monday when there were around 5 on the market.
If you want to get the most from your coins with ICONs I'd say you have to be patient,monitor the market and price, take into consideration if there is the WL or if there have been and influx of players from packs SBC's and finally be lucky.
yeah defo gonna take that approach, im in no rush to get him so will wait to pounce when the time is right.

i dont know when its best time but tbh for icons i wouldnt buy them on thursday. Everybody will get coins + rewards so prices for players in demand go up
Ahhh ok, my understanding was most people chose packs so would expect more of them on the market?
for example 85 Hagi only has a few left at the minute and the price has risen to like 480k the last few days.
yeah but icons get packed way less then the amount of people wanting to buy.
I think the general rule is; high rated sbc fodder goes down; every player under 25k goes down, and the players of lets say 50k and more prob go up a little, and the high end players go up too.
A lot of people get money so the players that are more in demand then will be getting packed go up in price
Ah yeah fair enough.. might have to wait it out for him then as im not going to quite have enough coins. Or pick a different Icon.

Depends on the week. This totw is pretty disappointing and people will hold on their packs for the rttf.
