Again and again, the community has demonstrated a strong, undesirable characteristic when it comes to the strange splendid screen. Allow me to present my analysis. I believe that to see what an item is truly worth, one has to research on its buying and selling rate, offers on it, and actual trades that happened. I shall begin:
Offers:
______________________________________
http://www.tf2outpost.com/trade/9466999 3 weeks, autobumps every hour
-Observe how as time passes, the offers steadily become worse and worse. This represents the community decreasing hype for it, and ultimately leads to noone willing to pay the current range's price for it.
-Most notable offers that are recent: S.Mantreads+4ref (2.75keys), 2 keys, 4 keys, 4 ref plus steel song bird (1.5 keys), 2 keys 9 ref, 2 keys + G.Shred. All way below current range.
http://www.tf2outpost.com/trade/9626557
-Notable offers: 3 keys, 4 keys. Strange Gold Rocket (4.25 keys)
-2 weeks, no autobump but user has been quite active in bumping it.
Selling:
___________________________________________
In this section, many 4 key deals, some which are successful, some not, are shown in order to emphasize the face that this item is not worth up to 5 keys at all. To be more accurate, I would believe 3-4 keys would be a suitable range for it since I think it will keep going down, but currently, 4 keys flat is more accurate.
http://www.tf2outpost.com/trade/10098622 4 keys
http://www.tf2outpost.com/trade/10091986 4 keys
http://www.tf2outpost.com/trade/10075564
This, by far, is the most interesting trade, and clearly shows how the item requires a drop. The user states that the strange splendid screen is between 4 and 5 keys (current range), and says that any offers about 5 keys will be B.O. Do people offer that?
Offers: 3 keys, 4 keys, 4 keys.

Please tell me what you think about this, I would very much like to hear it and would appreciate any comments, whether it be agreement or criticism.
good proof, upvote
i think i have worked out a few reasons why no one wants this:
well, it is better than charge targe
you cant really get kills with this, its kinda hard
its a pointless strange, as i said above, cant really get kills with it (well, it isnt easy)
and its the cancer of the salvaged crate, i guess
will be 2 keys soon enough
will buy when it hits 1 key xD
Splendid, splendid! You have earned an upvote good sir!
I believe that was a "cleverpun"?
I literally realized what I said a second after posting.
I hope you also realized that cleverpun is also the backpack.tf admin =)
Don't explain the joke!
Damn I need to work on insider jokes.
Joke = killed.
i laughed several times. for different reasons.
huehuehuehue
Yeah even though this is in the salvage crate ,I still treat it like its in a normal crate anyway
well, the guy in the last link (the one you said he bought one for 3 keys) has no strange screen in his backpack, and one of those guys buying for 2.5 keys is quickbuying (i guess it does not matter because it will still be a quickbuy) but other than that, great post, upvote
well, i guess more than one are quickbuying...
Hm...When I saw his backpack he most certainly had a screen...Did he sell it maybe?
The odd man out in a crate full of keepers really
meh, I use mine because I like the Splendid Screen, but I do upvote this
lol I sold my strange degreaser for more than that.
I'm just waiting for it to go down to a key. We all know this is gonna happen. Kinda like the Mantreads.
Nice! Upvote. I'm just waiting for this thing to hit rock bottom to buy one lol.
A lot of your buyers are lowballers/quickbuyers, but other than that, it's good proof. Upbooooaaaat
The thing is, I can't find a single "highballer" buyer in outpost. Maybe the quickbuyer's prices are now normal buying prices :P
Nah, there will always be people who lowball far below the normal price range. It makes me shudder to think that lowballers alone have the power to change prices.
And there aren't really any highballer buyers because that'd be crazy. Maybe quickbuys, but idk if there's that kind of demand for them.
