inb4 proof

Also, that imgur link, holy shit.

did you see the pic of my trade history of over 20 buds sold ?

also more proof is coming up

I meant your comment proof, I saw the imgur link and edited my comment. After it refreshed I saw this. Didn't mean it in a mean way :c

20 sales at 27 keys and fairly nice though.

Ive been trying to buy buds for 26 for the past 2 days now..... No luck, bought a cheap max's instead;(

I bought one for 26 two days ago. But it does look like 27 is really easy to sell.

i've been selling these 27 keys but i think there should be a range

The 26.5-27 suggestion was right.

It may have been more precise, but not right in my opinion.

I'll just copy and paste my reasoning from the last suggestion on why I don't believe it should have passed

"No suggestion has ever passed for Earbuds with a .5 range, it is simply to small of a change be negligible on an item so expensive, it needs a larger range ( a key, like it has always been). Tf2finance has had this at around 26.5 for a while, making the range 26-27 still fairly accurate in my opinion. Until I see a LOT proof of them NOT selling at 26 keys flat ( not just ~3 links ) I would not consider this suggestion worthy of an upvote."

TL;DR- People rarely pay with half keys with buds, it is either 26 or 27. Excluding 26 from the range would require a lot of proof.

I've sold tons of buds for 2 for 53 keys.

The value of a key is so large now that a half a key is an acceptable unit of measurement to value a bud at.

meh, people go apeshit about things that look "ugly" (3.16 - 5.56) UGRY! (clearly)

My trade and many other people trades that successfully bought for 27:

Gonna update more.

Please check owner's history and not the removal of the item please because they might be a buds sellers and don't want to make new trade.

add me to your list 2 sold in 2 hours : http://www.tf2outpost.com/trade/8242989

out of stock 27 pure each all of them , [b]buyers still adding even with 0 stock

finance now 1 Earbuds = 26.71 Keys

Jan 28, 2013 GMT : ( i'm also adding the exact time 19:02:46 )

i remember buds for 22-23 keys and 1 key for 2.33 - 2.66.

whats wrong nowadays...

Please stop making useless comments like this. I remember 28 keys. Nobody gives a damn. We aren't here to talk about what you remember, we are here to talk about what the current market looks like.

who released the kraken?

Because I'm tired of seeing these useless comments about how X suggestion makes people feel. If your comment does not add anything to the suggestion, don't make it.

"Because I'm tired of seeing these useless comments" :(

I'm REALLY tired

Yep and I know people that say they remember when Max's head was 2 keys.

and when the fuck was that ? lol

...Do you not get it?

remember when keys were 1.33 (and buds where like 2 ref) and people complained...Pepridge farm reminbers

Well.. I bought 2 buds for 26 keys in last two days. I can get screenshot of my trade history if proof is needed.

But that doesn't say much, maybe I was lucky.

EDIT: proof

http://imgur.com/6PFfnBX

would make a difference get it please.

completely unrelated to anything but... how do you keep track of your trades? is that a steam function/website or something? thanks.

Go to your steam profile -> inventory -> view inventory history (top right)

Pavke I will buy both of your buds for 54 keys.

I haven't been able to quickbuy earbuds for 26 keys for a while now, going to add a bit more metal. I still think it should be 26.5 - 27 verses 27 even

tf2finance is at 26.65 -> closer to the current range than to the suggested flat price -> downvote

13 hours later, still at 26.66..it needs to go up to at least 26.9 before I will even consider 27 flat

still very stable at 26.68

26.88 now, getting close, changing my vote to neutral

current range is fine as tf2finance says 26.65 which is in the 26-27 range

I bought one yesterday, the 26th, for 26 keys. (lol)

http://puu.sh/1TIGB

I don't remember how long I was looking, but probably by the time this vote is decided on it, it will probably be more difficult.

I do see trades though for 26 and some amounts of refined on occasion as well.

completely unrelated to anything but... how do you keep track of your trades? is that a steam function/website or something? thanks.

Steam keeps track yes go to your inventory in Steam and trade history.

If you view your inventory through steam, up in the top right section there is a view history button. It logs all your trades. http://puu.sh/1U0BO

This is a big help when it comes to scams and what not because of the proof it can provide.

I got one for 89 ref. Personally I'd rather have the 25ish keys than the 89 ref :-)

FOR EVERY BODY WHO SAYING

"tf2finance 26.65 closer to the current range"

Why there is nobody said tf2finance key =3.4 closer to 3.33-3.55

at the other 2 suggests for the key to be 3.66 , still they open for voting 3 days ( 3 days ) ?!?

Possibly because tf2finance isn't at 3.4?

It's at 3.47 currently, and has been fluctuating between there and 3.52 over the last few days. The required average for that suggestion is 3.49. The required average for the current one is 3.44. Guess which one's closer?

nop it was 3.38 at the time of the suggest started 3 days ago

You deliberately chose the lowest price it's been all week. That's intentionally misleading. It was actually, if you check the time of the suggestion, at around 3.46.

26,5-27? Always. This? Not even close.

I bought one for 17 keys and a white bills which is about 9 keys, 26 total.

White Bill's is 10 keys.

No it isn't. Around 9.5. You can barely sell a black bill's at 10 keys.

I can't sell either for 10 keys

Odd. I've always treated it as 10, but meh. I guess I was wrong.

Yeah they're like 9 now which is more accurate. Bills is 8 and white paint is 2 keys I think, so White Bills is 9 keys

People sell em' all the time at 10 keys, IDK what these people are talkin about :|

No, people are looking to sell at 10 keys because they copy others B/O. But they don't sell. Try selling one for 10, and then we shall talk again.

white bill's is 9 keys, look at my outpost history.

Strange... I got my buds for 26 keys within 15 minutes yesterday.

I will buy it from you for 26 keys + 1.66 ref

27 Keys. 1 Key profit xD

Bought 5 earbuds with 131 keys + 3 craft hats 26 +1.33 per bud and I got them in just the first few pages of looking on outpost this was one week ago I did a check now and I can only find two trades willing to do that price I'm gonna have to upvote

http://www.tf2outpost.com/trade/8250899

http://www.tf2outpost.com/trade/8143280

I just bought one yesterday for 89 ref :-) .... I told the seller to enjoy his ref :-) One man doesn't mean everyone. Just a useless story :-)

I bought one for 90. :D

I saw your post :-) Suckers selling for worthless ref. Unless they use the ref to buy things of value.

A Congressman is my Sugar daddy are selling for 26, but is 1 of 1 on that site, but have good profs! /\ ^UpVote^ /\

Any proof from the buyer side? Seller proof is always skewed towards the higher price end.

i think buying buds for 27 keys is the best price for now atleast.. thats why i think off

Actually bought a bud for 26 keys, clean one, easily (12h after puttin' the trade). Downvoted.

proof. and 12 hours is not easily bro.

http://img90.imageshack.us/img90/2825/sanstitrejn.png

It's easy man. Buying buds at that price for less than 1 day is easy.

1 day old and only bought one earbuds while needing two. so easy.

Well. 1 day isn't short, but it's not long. Also, if the price was 27, then it would take week before getting a 26.

definitely shows it's still possible to get them at 26

Current range seems fine, especially with folks below posting proof of recent 26 key purchases.

If you think you can't buy for 26 Keys, like you suggest, why did you not update your trade then? Long218: "Buying as the listed price, Price is FIRM. 26 for a clean buds."

Some of the buds you have in your BP suggest you bought them recently (by ID). What did you pay for those when you re-sell for 27 Keys and are clearly trading for profit?

edit: found it: [url]http://www.tf2outpost.com/trade/8211636[/url]

Are you going to suggest 26-27 again when you've sold yours? lol what a hypocrite -> downvote

I bought it from unfortunately no but the only reason he sell me that because he bought buds with money. He still selling them at 27 on outpost. Don't call me a hypocrite when you don't know the full detail

??? So did you or did you not buy at least 2 (that are in your BP now) from him yesterday for 26 keys each?

What does it matter where he got them from? He was selling for 26 Keys and you bought them for all I can tell. Show me the screenshot of your trade history with him to back your claim (whatever that is, I didn't get your comment).

He have some buds to start with, he then sell it for 27 keys on outpost and 26 keys to me. then he sell the keys for $1.35 and then buy buds at $32. His profit is about $3 per buds he sold and resell

Well, there you go. A successful trade for 3 x 26 Keys within a day of your suggestion that you supposedly can't buy for 26 Keys. He was not selling specifically only to you, it was an open trade. And I don't give a rat's ass what profit he made or why he sold them for 26 Keys, important is, he did! Go figure....

because I know him bro. if I didn't, then he would sell at 27 to me.

Sure, and because you know him so well, he had to open a public trade for 26 Keys where you posted "added" and then had to remove you from his friends list again - lol

And "Disliking" my comments isn't gonna help you at all. I've caught you in a big fat lie!

that like 3 buds in how many days ? 5 ? 10 days ? lol.

and I was talking about the earbuds of "unfortunately no" http://www.tf2outpost.com/user/4056

lol, that makes another seller @26 Keys to you besides "The One" from the trade I linked. And "Unfortunately No" is also not on your friends list now. You really must be good pals! My guess, he found your buying for 26 Keys trade. Liar!

I dare you to get him to corroborate your story here!

and er mah gerd you caught me in a big fat lie!. What lie, lol.

Tired of talking to ignorant stubborn and rude person

you have a lot of alt, bro

"you have a lot of alt, bro"

And why would that matter if I did? This is the only account I use, since 2005!

Let me guess, you did a search for "Uranium" and found other accounts, right?

You're not only a bad liar, but also seem to lack a lot of other things I don't need to mention here, bro

I'm just saying you have a lot of alt because if not, no one gonna sit here all day to downvote my comments lol. keep accusing other people without legit evidence and one day you gonna get in troubles in real life

why so quiet ? Cat got your tongue ?

The "evidence" is there for everyone to see. I am still waiting for your pal to corroborate your story here. Shouldn't be that hard if he's such a good pal to you, should it?

And makes no difference to the trade I linked where you also bought 3 for 26 each, but thanks for pointing out you also bought from "Unfortunately No" for 26 each.

And maybe you should think about why people "Dislike" your comments.

But I guess you're convinced that's me with all my alts because I have nothing better to do... you believe whatever you want, doesn't change the facts.

That must mean I know him too! http://i.imgur.com/aOFpMym.jpg

I agree that bro deals should affect the price, I sold my friend from school a hat for a scrap once BUT a hat is not a scrap!!!

GSC159753: "I agree that bro deals should affect the price, I sold my friend from school a hat for a scrap once BUT a hat is not a scrap!!!"

You didn't read the full story, did you? Both "The One" (I pointed out) and "Unfortunately No" (He pointed out for unknown reasons) are not "bros" of his.

And even if "Unfortunately No" (without him being in his friends list) should be a "bro", he still bought 3 buds for 26 Keys each from "The One" just prior to suggesting here: "impossible to get for 26 keys nowaday".

And my guess is, he didn't pay 27 Keys for the "over 20 earbuds" he sold for "27 keys each" in "2 days" either.

That makes me question his motives here.

Together with the many links buying below 26.5 from others, that is clearly a downvote in my book.

http://tf2finance.com/ - 26.62 keys

26.71 now

26.48 now :O

26.71 now since we're all being CNN.

26.71 now, again

26.88 now.

26.9 now :O

26.85. Seems like it the falls a little back.^^

still too early to call 27 flat in my opinion though I sold my buds for 27 on outpost after waiting a day.

At the moment 27 Keys is far more valuable to trade with than a pair of Earbuds. Most people will ask you to sell the buds first and bring them pure keys. The current prices of metal/keys makes these worth no more than 18 keys today.

The prices are still within range. Down vote

show me the proof of how the price still within range please

sold my bud for 27 keys after an hour. (yesterday)

upvote

It took you a full hour to sell a bud? That changes my vote.

only 1 hour ? it not long especially when there are a ton of pages sellings buds and your trade only gonna be on the first search for a few sec

There are tons of people buying buds. If it takes you an hour, it means that everybody buying buds passed up your trade, and then just settled later.

Or it means they posted on different trades trying to lowball, gave up and went with the 27 keys

or he didn't bump...

Impossible? no.

http://puu.sh/1U7cG

only one ?

together with the 3 you bought for 26 each yesterday, that is already 4 (see above)

dude the ones I bought doesn't count if that price is only reserve to me by one person lol.

I've already uncovered your lies above. Just give up!

http://www.tf2outpost.com/trade/8265940 this guys offering 27 keys for buds.

I don't think anybody is denying you can sell buds for 27 keys.

I've bought 6 within a week for 26 keys

http://i.imgur.com/ApFcCb5.jpg

lol you got flagged by somebody

Btw, I bought 2 pairs today at 26 keys + 1 ref.

I will buy both for 55 keys.

Even here no one is selling under 26 keys http://backpack.tf/classifieds/search/143/6/0

There aren't that many people who would change the suggested price that's already given to something lower on the classified listings with most items.

I mean 27*

But is true that no one selling it under 27 keys ?

http://i.imgur.com/ApFcCb5.jpg

http://i.imgur.com/nfAtlip.jpg

All 7 for 26 keys

I this said in this link http://backpack.tf/classifieds/search/143/6/0

No one is selling it under 27 keys right ?

Nope, but you can still find them for 26 on outpost. One of the 7 I bought was from the backpack.tf classifieds.

Price is fine: http://imgur.com/dqLMGRv

I find it interesting that the last 3 people to try and buy my buds at 27 keys have all had 0 friends except for me and just so happen to have exactly 27 keys in their pack.

....*russians*....

(no offense to any russians) :

He didn't have a country listed on the 4 alts.... but the other 3 more realistic profiles he had were from Germany, Lithuania and Russia. I asked SteamRep what to do.

A german, russian ... lithuanian? dafuq 0_o

Here's my post about it >> http://forums.steamrep.com/threads/following-a-possible-alt-account-scam.20992/

I only started keeping track after the first 2 alt accounts. I'd never think anyone would use 4 alt accounts to try to buy buds. But maybe its all coincidental and these people are all friends because they're looking to buy buds.

I just had an offer of 17 keys + lime bills + 6 ref, which even if you lowball is 27.

I also sold one for 27 keys + 1.00 + slate + slamon which is at least what I asked for

http://www.tf2outpost.com/trade/8271606

Downvote, this is just wrong. Metal prices keep dropping, therefore earbuds are worthless.

Im confused metal=/=keys=/=buds I hardly ever see ref to buds, not worth it to put 90+ ref in a window! (and If ref is dropping then its ref price would increase not decrease!)

I'll gladly sell a bud for 96 refined.

well what I meen is people pefer keys so if ref goes down, the the price of buds to ref goes up, (they used to be what...like 85 ref?) and so the price raised meening keys going up/ ref going down, didnt affect this bud to key suggestion...Wow im an unorginized typer XD sorry if that doesnt make too much sense lol.

People who say that theres no one buying at 27 keys is wrong. You litterly need to have patience. you can find users buying for 27 keys if you have patience. I found just a few users selling for 26 keys and buying for 27 or 26+ref's

Last sale I did before increasing my price to 28.

http://i.imgur.com/Nr2P7zL.jpg

agreed, sold 2 buds in less than an hour for 27 keys

27 is the standard, agreed.

agree. impossible to buy at 26 keys

Seriously why is everyone disliking Long's comments?!

uranium235's alts. else, they would have comment on why they dislike me lol

I have had 4 people in the last day add me to sell for 26 keys, unfortunately I've spent the majority of my keys completing my v. weapons collection and could not purchase said buds. guess it's time to take my post down?

I easly found 5ppl selling buds for 26keys 3on outpost 2 on tf2tp so X

I'm going to retract my vote. This suggestion has been open too long now and TF2Finance is at 26.85 by now. If that is just temporary or this suggestion was a miracle look into the future, I don't know.

But I guess a decision is about to happen and proof and counter-proof may be out of date already. It's anybody's guess now if this will get accepted or closed (what I would've bet on a day ago).

don't forget to retract all the downvotes given by your alt!

Oh, look. Downvoted.

hehe, but only 1 of them is from me, honestly

Why are you doing this?

Oh Mah Gawd! Got Dayum!

Tf2finance now shows 26.88 keys. Hmm

http://www.tf2outpost.com/trade/8287567

I got offered for 27 keys and declined

But you putting the price at a higher value then suggested shows nothing, other than you trying to get more out of people when their are plenty of trades at 27.

i just got earbuds for 26 keys and resold it for 27 keys (26-27) is fair price . proof http://www.tf2outpost.com/trade/8299996

Um i have seen a lot of ppl offering 26 keys and 2 ref and these are buyers who usually put a certain item they wanna buy down. I have also seen a lot of buds being sold for 27 keys pure. Therefore i can say i think buds should be 27 keys not 26
