While it is a rare item, there just isn't a demand for it anymore. You can't raise the price back to nearly a bud without people willing to pay that much for it. The fact is that at most, people will pay 12 keys for it, because that's what it is listed at on the spreadsheet.

And being that you have one in your inventory, nobody will take this suggestion seriously because you clearly have an interest in the price increasing for your own profit. I'm also guessing that you bought it for 12 keys at most from DoctorandusJ on Outpost, since that is what he was selling it for. [url]http://www.tf2outpost.com/trade/5069452[/url]

And you are going to fail miserably. The value of the items is determined by market, not by anyone's own will.

Downvote.

What Jambi said, also your "proof" shows trades that list at least 1 bud as their buyout but none of them have actually sold. In fact one of those trades has been up for at least a month and he hasn't even gotten a current offer yet. If you can show several being sold for that price then it counts as proof.

lol what is this.

oh boy here we go again with the "lel save da archimedees i pay $30 for it so dat mean it werf dat much XDDDDDDDD"

supply

and

demand

rare isnt affecting demand

Nobody wants it bro, sorry.

Don't agree, totally fail suggestion as Jambi said.

Not gonna happen. And it's definitely not going to triple in value on the spot, let alone rise at all.

This guy's fucking stupid.

Enjoy the downvote :)

OP what the fuck are you doing?
