the fourth link shows slight proof.

but is there a way to check tf2finance?

Not that I know of :O

Ohhhh, was waiting to see when someone would have a crack at pricing metal.

Yea figured an update was needed :O

seems legit

Thanks for the proof :)

Considering that person is selling at 39 cents each, technically, that's not proof for your suggestion, rather for an even lower price because it's one cent less than your suggestion.

It's still proof because it proves that my suggestion is better than the current one, and I didn't neccusarily mean proof for my suggestion, just about it.

tf2outpost proof can not be used to price refined metal since rep there is useless and if someone is trying to sell he HAS TO sell under the market to get any sales at all.

Holy crap, a dollar suggestion.

Anyway, this seems about right. In reference to keys, pricing metal at this would put a key at 1.46 (given a generous though not unlikely exchange rate of 3.66:1), which seems about right on the gray market. If anything, metal should be cheaper.

I considered making it cheaper, but there are sellers (and a few buyers) at $0.40 each, and I really didn't want to scare anybody with a massive metal suggestion change for the first real suggestion.

tbh, i'd prefer sourceop proof rather than outpost

Probably another good place, if I had thought of it I might have gone their earlier.

Heres some more sourceop threads:

Thanks mate, I appreciate you taking the time.

Does that one cent even matter ._.

It does,a lot.

Take Mattie backpack for example, 1 cent will be $736 lost for him

LET US DESTROY MATTIE BY LOWERING THE PRICES OF REFINED METALS

BY ONE EVIL CENT

http://www.tf2outpost.com/trade/6321684 I have successfully sold lots of refined for 0.40, but I doubt this will get passed, 0.41 is just to leave some room for those big time sellers who sell for up to 0.50 because they have a lot of rep..but well good luck, I'll stay neutral

Alright mate, thanks for the response:

Down vote

I've bought many at $0.35, cant really sell any at $0.40. I think $0.35-$0.40 would be better.

I don't think we should have a spread with $ when it comes to Metal. It needs a static price. :)

Well even if its not quite accurate (in your opinion), it's closer so it should be an upvote, right?

As the basis for accepting a suggestion or not is simply is it better than the current one?

You don't use TF2 Outpost for the value of cash trades.

Pricing in money for buds and keys is way off I reckon. I can buy buds easily for $32 and keys each for $1.25 with no problem.

and how much do u sell them for?

I dont sell them. I buy unusuals with them.

Yea I'd agree the price is a little high, but I didn't really wanna change it too much on the first suggestion.

I think money on backpack.tf is off in my opinion.

Wow, just by looking at this I realize people crave keys so much more than ref.

It's because you can get metal from the weapons you get from playing, but not keys unless someone spends some real money.

This guy's highest refined price is 40, and he'll go to 36 if you're buying it in bulk

Awesome, thanks for the link :)
