Hope that's good enough proof for now, it's clear that the price of Bacon Grease is falling predictably. Not sure when it'll reach an equilibrium, but it is definitely lower than the current price now.

Edit: really sorry about the suggestion spam, my internet browser mucked up and backpack.tf isn't displaying the range I want for some reason. ~~If it doesn't work this time, I'll just leave it up and hope for the best.~~ Yay it worked :3

Your comments are appreciated, I believe I still have room for improvement in my price suggestions. I will try to be considerate, even if you are downvoting me or criticising me, and will not 'Dislike' any comments.

The last link in sellers sold for 22, downvote.

That was a one-off, which I included to try to avoid bias in my evidence. Similarly, I have included a link where bacon grease was bought for 16 keys.

As the price is falling, sellers/buyers agree on all sorts of prices, but I'm trying to keep the range to a minimum. Nevertheless, thank you for your feedback.

i think the ones at scrap.tf are a solid proof that no one wants to pay over 20 keys for grease. upvote

Thanks. That's why I weighted the links towards the buyers, as bot sites and services should be good enough proof for sellers

I think the ideal price should be 19-20, I agree that this need to drop, but not that much.

Also, aren't quickbuyer's are nnot sufficient proof?

Yes I agree with you, 19-20 would be fair. However, for some reason, when I tried to do that the suggestion kept coming up with only 19 keys (no range). So I was forced to settle for 18-20. Hence why I have so many closed suggestions, you can see for yourself.

I wouldn't think so. Quick buyers should be going to scrap.tf, tf2wh etc. to check prices before offering anywhere else. Furthermore, as I said to L'Amore, backpack.tf and community-based price suggestions are here to raise awareness of correct pricing so that even quick buyers get fair deals.

this price isn`t valid i know that trade he seem to change the wtb from 19 to 16 yestrday.. http://www.tf2outpost.com/trade/9457069 2 bought at 16 keys

guys have in mind that the buyers change their prices everytime after a drop or a rise on the items they trade... dont make quick assamptions like that.. thw system you are using to proof you suggestions is more than just flaux..it`s suspicius

Sorry I should have verified that trade first, thanks for the information and advice. On the other hand, 19 is still within the price range of 18 to 20 keys.

However, I'm not sure what you mean in the latter part of your comment. Are you saying that I'm acting suspiciously?

no i am saying that the buyers change their comments so...

you dont know if he bought it for 16 or if he change that later as i am doing everytime the price goes lower or suggested lower

i lower my buying price too

sold 2 yesterday both for over 26 keys in items on a trade asking for 25 keys pure.

DOWNVOTE

Those traders could have easily bought the Bacon Grease from scrap.tf at 20 keys. That should be a maximum price for sellers.

This suggestion is to raise awareness to other traders that prices such as yours shouldn't be accepted. Nevertheless, thank you for your contribution.

man you owned him, bravo

Cheers brah.

http://www.tf2outpost.com/trade/9633191 - offer of s. pan (22-24 Keys)

http://www.tf2outpost.com/trade/9673130 - offer of s. pan, but seller declines, then the buyer adds 1 key (23-25 Keys)

http://www.tf2outpost.com/trade/9673130 - offer of Steaming Demoman's Fro (20-22 keys)

http://www.tf2outpost.com/trade/9750973 = offer of Stormy Storm Stately Steel Toe (19-24 keys)

Own me now, bro.

I still don't see how you can argue with this http://scrap.tf/items?bot=13

20 keys. Automated service, firm price, no negotiations, fast trade, and yet 5 unsold. I would comment on every single one of those posts on tf2op that they could do this, but I'd be reported for trade hijacking. Therefore, I'm making this price suggestion so that they might see this instead.

The higher need to be higher, IMO. Since there is proof that there are people who has managed to sell it for above or exactly at the same price.

You're very good grammar and language is very persuasive, but people sell for what they think,is accurate with prices here and you seem to be controlling the market because you are basing your proof on scrap.tf.

People managed to sell for above 20 keys because the backpack.tf price at the moment is inaccurate. Everyone who submits a price suggestion is trying to "control the market", if you think about it. I think that since there is a guaranteed price of 20 keys maximum set by a bot service, that should be the absolute top of the price range. From there, as I said before, 19-20 would be a decent range, 18-20 is not much different.

Thank you for complementing my grammar, by the way. I do try.

So you showed us that 20+ is possible. Now show us people SELLING for less than.

Look at the Buyers section, people have sold to buyers for less than 20

PEASEANT, I <3 You!

I LOVE YOU TOO! <3

</3

:c :c :c

The scrap.tf example is solid enough, remember, scrap.tf buys at considerably less than what they're selling for (obviously) which easily vindicates the rather conservative lower value for this suggestion.

I was actually surprised that backpack.tf's value was still so high.

I considered that, wasn't sure if it was worth putting in the evidence. Thanks for pointing that out here and confirming.

Same here, I was hesitant to drop the price by so much, but I think it's necessary.
