The fourth trade on outpost is a dupe, traded to a person who also has the hat. Furthermore, the third trade also has this hat, meaning a triple dupe?

CONCLUSIONS:

Looking for previous sales is useless; either they were extremely old sales, or they were involved in many swapping or duping incidents.

My proposed low end will be 3.5 buds since the average of all unusual offers is 3.4 buds, and the two 3.7 offers on two of the trades are the lowest pure offers. Taking the average of that would be about 3.5.

My proposed high end will be 4 buds, since that is the highest pure offer, and some unusual offers go above 4 buds. In the past, it is shown to sell for 4 buds, and it certainly has the potential to sell for 4 today.

Additional proof and counterproof is greatly appreciated.
