Suggestion: Tour of Duty Ticket at 2–2.22 ref

Also, please ignore my previous post, I didn't get a chance to supply evidence by accident and when I removed the post I had negative points and couldnt resuggest...

2.11 ref or less is too abundant.

There are people offering to buy it for 2.22 or more. Still puts it in the range!

I'd disagree. With such a common item (almost becoming a new currency), the range should really lean towards the most abundant range of trades. Like with keys, you know.

Keep in mind that the first 2 links are people that are OFFERING to pay 2.22 for them. Other links are where people have agreed to pay a certain amount.

Here is how often they can be found for 2 ref. This is 10 pages of outpost trades of people offering about 2 ref:

And finally, as for these guys:

First one still seems to be selling

The second one has not been on since they posted the trade. I can imagine they will come back to many adds

The last 2 have already sold theirs, and it is no longer in their backpack

This is why I dont think 2 ref is that easy to find. Possible and within the range, but not necessarily easy to find!

2 ref is easy to find. In fact there are two more sellers at 2 ref in the classifieds in the last hours.

Ok but 2 ref is still in the range... The point of this suggestion is to add 2.22 to the range!

That's where it comes to a matter of opinion.

2-2.22 might represent where trades happen at, but 2-2.11 represents where the far majority of trades happen at. With such a common item, the range should be more specific, perhaps.

downvote it is pretty hard to sell at 2.22-2.33(I know 2.33 is not in the range for this suggestion but still)

I also found a lot of buyers at 2 ref or less because atm I have 25 tickets I bought at less than 2 ref right now.

Hey long, if you check my evidence at the bottom, I show why buying at 2 ref is just as difficult to find as as selling at 2.22 :-)

http://www.tf2outpost.com/trade/10088832 - Another trade of 2.33 or 2:1 key

I sold 2 for a key. I feel like this is the most common price. What do other people think? Would it be feasible to countersuggest .5 keys. I think this might match better then just a refined determination.

I thought about doing a 0.45-0.5 key suggestion, but keys are still rising too fast and most people are only paying in metal for their tickets. It would have worked back then beacuse keys and tickets were going up at a similar rate. tickets used to cost 1.3 back when keys were 2.6.

But it is clear that they can be bought for 2.11, and even 2 ref straight and keys are 4.55-4.66 so consider each 2:1 trade you get for a key as lucky. I know I do

That's fair. I mean I just randomly sold a pair the other day and didn't have any trouble. Maybe I was lucky. I don't claim to know this market too well, but your input is appreciated. I'm also curious what will become of these if/when valve releases the next map(s).

From my experience, 2 tickets for a key has become remarkably difficult. I'm lucky if I can get that trade at a rate of once per day.

Agreed, but that would put the price as 2.33 per ticket and it can reach there, but I think 2.22 is a fair start. Also if you could post screen shots that would be great!

Sorry, didn't mean to imply I meant it in contradiction to your suggestion. Keys are undervalued on bp.tf right now so an inability to sell at 2 for a key would mean little in regards to your 2.22 high point, I was just tossing in my 2 cents on Stephen's proposal for a countersuggest.

I haven't accepted metal on tickets for a while so I can't speak for how potential to sell at 2.22 through personal experience, though I do seem to buy fairly swiftly at 2 ref, for whatever's that worth. Still, tickets are a high volume item so that may not mean anything either.

please dont do this, i really know a lot of people that trade 2 ref for a ticket and i think it works fine

I guess 2.22 does happen.

Since this is such a high volume item, I will accept it.
