To start of with, i have never seen someone selling for under 9 keys, and never seen any buying for over 8. Please don't be rude in the comments. Thanks!

Buyers: (8-5 keys)

9 keys:

Have seen one, but cant find him.

8 keys:

6 keys:

Lowballers: (<5 keys)

http://www.tf2outpost.com/trade/10174365

Sellers: (10-13 keys)

13 keys:

10 keys:

http://www.tf2outpost.com/trade/10215560

Highballer: (>13 keys)

http://www.tf2outpost.com/trade/9694536

So in the middle it would be:

Buyers: 6.5 keys

Sellers: 11.5 keys

Which is 9.

You ought to be more descriptive - saying "unsold" or "no adds" next to the links.

Also, please show some successful transactions at 9 keys, to justify the range.

Thanks for the advice! :D Im glad there is nothing else wrong :D

Sold mine for 10 keys and got 2 adds in an hour (at the same time). Current price range is fine, no need for a change, so I downvoted:)

Yes if you took the sellers the best price is now 10 keys, so its obvious, why you sold so fast... Can't undersand why you downvoted...

I don't understand what you're saying? Google translate? If 10 keys is the best price, then why did you make a suggestion at 9 keys?

I meant 10 keys was cheapest, thats why folks are buying them...

So the current price range is ok.

The funny thing is, that all of your links that are selling at 10 keys have all been sold except for the last one

( http://www.tf2outpost.com/trade/10215560 ) but on the last link someone said,

Dr. Heteronormative (3 hours ago): "I'll take the original."

TEAM:. Kumori Shinobi^ (3 hours ago): "Ok add me. I'll be online soon."

All of your links selling at 10 keys have all been sold

( http://www.tf2outpost.com/trade/10214057

and some of your higher ones: http://www.tf2outpost.com/trade/10213848

I bought one some days ago for 8 keys + 3 refined, I guess I was lucky haha

You basically posted a lot of highballers and lowballers.

I'm sorry, we can't accept this suggestion unless you show enough trades being done at 9 keys. Some of your links have offers of 9 keys + sweets (by the same person).

overall good first, but concentrate more on the unsold 10keys, all above isn`t relevant and search for finished trades. (hard especially with such items).

the 8key-buyer got one in BP, but looks unboxed by himself (doesnt have a single key), all other buyers got none . In the end there`s no successful sale at your suggessted price.

Im sorry to say (im quite a noob) i dont know how to get finished trades too, when i search...

was selling for 9.25 keys

got 2 adds after 5 mins of my trade being up

guy offered a ts bills + key

other guy pure

so downvote. even seems like 9 is a quicksell

http://www.tf2outpost.com/trade/10236753

I dont think you understand...

you sold that quick because you sold for such a small price.

thats why people where interested...

you where the one selling for the least.

no one who makes a "buying" trade, buys for 9 keys.

i cant understand why you downvoted...

because i just sold it for 10 keys within 20 mins of listing it. which goes against what this is suggesting that selling it for anything more than 9 keys is not possible. i had 2 people willing to pay more than 9 keys. Buyers will always list for cheap since

a) they are reselling

b) know people are sometimes desperate for keys

c) just poor

Im not saying that its impossible to sell for more than 9 keys.

im just saying that buyers is buying for 5-8 keys and sellers is selling for 10-13 keys.

So thats totally not what im saying.

Im saying that the average of what folks is buying and selling for is 9 keys...

thats why i cant understand you downvoted, because you sold for almost 9 keys...

Which means that 9 keys is the right price...

got an offer of a sf grenade launcher (12 keys)

http://www.tf2outpost.com/trade/10253047

Bought mine for 10, 4 days ago http://www.tf2outpost.com/trade/10149632

Most of the 10 key originals have sold. As discussed in the comments, a drop isn't warranted here.

Thanks for the effort, but 10 keys doesn't need to be taken out of range. I'd recommend looking at other suggestions to see how to approach pricing an item. The forums are always happy to give advice if you need help in the future.

Closing due to contradictory proof and contention in the comments.
