HOW I MAKE MILLIONS FROM FLEA FLIPPING - Escape from Tarkov

[@darthvexen4697]

I just want to say that I’ve wanted to play EFT for a few years now. I just recently got a very basic gaming pc that can run EFT and I discovered your channel and it’s been a huge resource for me starting out. I’ve been doing the PVE mode as I’ve been a lifelong console gamer and am also learning keyboard and mouse. Keep up the excellent videos!

[@PLAYER2035]

@@Mafiik11 I couldn't care less about the rubles, you completely miss the point. The issue is the ammo / weapons / gear. When the flea was FIR, the flea was not flooded with high pen ammo at basically trader costs. What ammo there was, was very expensive. Now, as soon as you hit level 15 you effectively have everything unlocked. There is no linear progression with kits and the types of fights you get into. Before the flea unlocked I didn't die to anything better than M855. Now I am getting dropped by level 17's using M856A1. See the problem yet?

I simply refuse to trader flip. Can't figure how they never implemented a bought from vendors status like found in raid is.

[@marcinchreptowicz6843]

After playing PoE 1 and 2 for about 6 years I can guarantee you that flipping is one of the shittiest things you can do to an economy and it's not going to work if more people do it. It becomes stale, the inflation never stops and it's just a shitty thing to do. People often get reported in PoE for doing this so I dont think bragging about doing it in Tarkov will make the community happy. While yes, it's a very easy way of generating tons of cash it's the same as destroying the housing market by "flipping".

[@longpal]

You seem to miss the subtext and unspoken part of the video - it was made to promote this method, so more people do it, so the developers are pressured into changing it. Whether it gets changed back to needing items to be found in raid or preventing re-selling or even removing the flea market, who knows, but he's not promoting it as a "good thing" to be doing

@@itsyaboymushie9103 Think he means another tag that symbolizes "this item came to be through an ingame spawn" that never goes away, so if you bought ammo from the flea you could resell later it if you wanted to, but not if you bought the same ammo from traders because it wouldn't have that ingame spawn tag.
