Sadly not many trades are out there for this hat since it is a REALLY nice hat and nobody really trades it away unless it is for much more than it is worth, I personally bought mine for a buds and I am very happy about this hat and I think it deserves a slight boost in price, Thank you for reading :)

Apply unusual overpay

you couldve posted the other offers these hats recieved :/

also, you forgot overpay

What do you mean by overpay? I am pretty new to price suggesting xD

basically, any non pure item (pure being buds, keys, etc) is worth 90%, or .9, of its lowest value when being offered for an unusual.

I added one. thanks!

No, 90% of middle range, or on higher tiers just low end.

could you please give a example? :3

Higher tiers are like the moon guadalajdhjandhsjbdjara I'm updating. Low tiers are this one of yours. Anything above 2.5 pretty much is high.

90% off the low end is just way too low. It doesn't even seem fair for the unusual to be worth less than it's low end even with overpay. Cuz even quicksellers would take that deal. And mods are pretty fine with 90% off the mid range ^_^

is there like a wiki for this? I am very confused >_< I can't understand what EXACTLY I have to do like I said before I am very new to price suggestions :P

The reason is because the seller wants to cash out. You're offering him an item. Why should he trade hats of the same value with you when he doesn't want the hat and just wants money?

Example.

I have a 2 bud hat and am selling it for that amount. Some guy offers me another hat worth 2 buds. Why should I trade hats? I get nothing out of it. I don't like his hat and I just want pure currency (keys, buds).

Another guy comes along and offers me a hat worth 2.5 buds. Now it's worth my time to take the hat because he gets the hat he wants and I still have to sell a hat but, now, I make a little bit of profit in exchange for a little more time needed to sell the hat.

Unusual hats take longer to sell than your average item which means exchanging for items instead of currency is just a waste of the seller's time. Better to wait for a pure offer than having to accept an offer and losing all the time you spent trying to sell your old hat and all the time you'll need to invest to sell the new one.

Also, when selling a hat that you got via overpay, you generally look at mid to low end of its value because you want to "quicksell" it. In other words:

Link 1: Offer of 18-21 keys... leaning more towards 18-19 key offer.

Link 2: Offer of 14-17 keys... leaning more towards 14-15 key offer.

Link 3: Offer of 17-21 keys... leaning more towards 17-18 key offer.

This is factoring in a 90% market value overpay.

Thank you :3

Do you mind if i just copy and paste this? This is like the perfect explanation :3 And some people are so stubburn about factoring in overpay -__- i'll give you credits xDDD

Sure, go right ahead. :)
