I was thinking about going for the club value acheivement, i.e over 100,000,000. It seems quite an undertaking but looking at the leaderboard on XBL and the top guy is over 900 million for club value
Surely there is a point when you have no more cards to get as you will be duplicated to f**k. Anyone close or past the 100 million for club value? I'm at 7 million btw, with my serie A gold and MLS and Korean bronze squads.
It's 85 million. You need a massive balance to get it, I bought around 600 players in the end before I got the achievement. Here's the best guide on how to do it if you have the coins...

Gold Method
Set the search up to BIN @ 650/700 then buy all the gold shinys. If you're unsure on who you've already bought then just buy them anyway and discard if necessary as you only lose about 1-100 coins max as were buying @ no more than 700ea.
Another way to do this is search for 'Gold players' who's current bid is 650 or less. I found a ton of gold shinys this way and ensured they were mine buy putting a 700 bid on them.
Each shiny gold has an approximate value of 240k~ when stored in the club.
Buying shiny golds @ 650:
240k (Value of card in club) x 355 (Amount of cards we need) = £85,200,000.
Therefore, 355 (Cards) x 650 (The price we buy them at) = ~£231k(Coins needed)
Buying shiny golds @ 700: 355 x 700 = ~249k (Coins needed)
Therefore, you need between 230k-250k to start this method.
Projected losses on Gold Cards
Once you have the achievement you need to make some money back..Discarding an 80+ rated gold shiny player usually gives you 648 coins, so if you can purchase these for 650 (Which you can) then you are only losing 2 coins per card. If you are getting gold shinys rated 75-80 you get an average of around 620 coins when discarded (600 for 75's, 640 for 80's), which is an average loss of about 30 coins per card.
355 (Amount of cards we need) x 30 (Our average loss per card) = Projected total loss of 10,650 coins using this method.
I done it with a mix of normal and shiny golds though, for normal golds, you just follow the same process but buy them at 350/400 coins. You can also do it with Silver and Bronzes, but doing it with Gold's is the best way to ensure your losses are as low as possible.
