This problem is solved by a timer at all; it needn't be random. As long as there is time for other people to get to the plot to click, you can't guarantee a direct transaction. FC selling is easier. The random aspect adds very little here, and the length of the random timer just favors people who can AFK for the entire window meaning you're encouraging people to not play the game.
