Suggestion: Salvaged Mann Co. Supply Crate #40 at 11–13 keys

I see no reason to raise the price to 13 keys.

I am setting a range for the available prices on outpost. You yourself are selling at 13 keys. The lower range of 11 Keys is possible while as you suggested, the median is 12 keys. It is possible to sell for 13 keys as I sold 3 myself.

I have to say, Puddington, that was quite the hypocritical move yourself.

Yes, I attempt to sell these for 13 keys (have yet to sell even 1 at that price), but that's only because I can't be bothered to trade all that often so I choose a high price so people don't bother me all that often (seems to be working.)

BTW, just cause a price is a common buyout does not make it a common price. If 90% of trades on Outpost had 20 keys buyout, the price would not be 20 keys. People actually have to start paying 20 keys AND 20 keys would have to be the lowest price around for a price change to get accepted here.

So, if either is not true (either 20 keys is not the lowest price around or no one is paying 20 keys), then the price doesn't get accepted even if 1,000 people upvote it.

I see people on the trade he linked agreeing on 13 keys.

I've sold 3 already in 2 days at 13 keys per crate....

Good for them, but it doesn't change the fact that the vast majority of crates asking for 12 keys aren't getting sold.

If these are so easy to sell for 13 keys, then why don't you buy those crates asking for 12?

Put your money where you mouth is.

I never said they were easy to sell for 13 keys, I said they were possible to sell for 13 keys. Am I suggesting changing to the price to a fixed 13 keys? No, I am merely putting a range of 11-13 as possible prices

So these are difficult to sell for 13 keys, but you still want to include that in the price range?

Those crates asking for 12 can't even get buyers and you want me to accept 13 keys in the price range?

I didn't say they were difficult at all either, selling 3 crates in 2 days seems like a fairly average selling speed to me. If there is absolutely no one buying for 13 keys and someone just bought one as a lucky highball, then I would say you are 100% correct. But it is possible to sell at 13 with some success, therefore I included it into the suggestion. But I guess everything is up to you Chancellor, since you are the admin who decides whether or not the price is valid

In retrospective, is it super common to see sellers of 11 keys? No, either they are little in numbers, or just C/Os of people wanting to sell at 14-15 keys. Why do we still put 11 keys in the suggestion if there are so little 11 key sellers?

FZ, you can't argue with the guy who makes it or breaks it on these prices. They ARE hard to sell for 13. It's a once-in-a-while-type trade - the kind of trade that doesn't happen very often, so you can consider yourself lucky when you do get it.

Actually, he can argue.

I don't understand. You guys are raising the priced based on anticipation for the crate to stop dropping. Basically you are saying they are rising because they are going to rise.
