i think by definition if you get the player for X, X is not under the market rate, you can only inflate the rate you are paying. If it was really such a deal then the player would have been bought by someone else for 2.1 M.there are two situations i can imagine you are describing. One is where a player was listed which would eventually sell for 5 million, and a friend bid 2M immediately such that the cash would be immediately available for the seller to spend on another player. Second, is that that same player was not worth 2M and a second team bought that player for 2M when he was only worth 200K, and that 2M was used to buy another valuable player.The first situation is not cheating, the second is cheating.The first is simply an early bid, which is not illegal.
They picked the time when fewest users are online to sell the 2M player
Anyway pretty strange that there isnt a Chinese GM, since a big part of the Chinese community doesnt speak english... Unless we got GM's that are able to speak Chinese or the traditional Chinese
