This item needs a price. Proof is below.

Absolutely no demand. After releasing of the Poker 2 Game few Skewers was sold at 1 key, but right now a lot of traders are willing to sell it cheaper. Somebody is even giving it away for free (the first link in the "Sold" section) or selling for extra cheap (1 rec, the last link in the "Unsold" section).

So atm very easy to buy it for 1 ref, but still possible to sell for 2 (the second link in the "Sold" section)

Outdated sales for 1 key are excluded from the range

If somebody thinks that this item shouldn't be lower than 1,33 ref, because it's a craft hat, take a look at the prices of the Poker 1 promo items.

where are you coming up with a 1-2 ref range from?

"So atm very easy to buy it for 1 ref, but still possible to sell for 2 (the second link in the "Sold" section)" - from the my suggestion

I read what you wrote up at the top, but your proof links don't really support the range, which is why I am asking

Could you explain your point please, because I think my proof supports my range :)

My point is, your "proof" is all over the place and doesn't support your proposed range. Your sold examples support a 2 ref to 1 key range, and then your unsold links supports that 1 key is too high, and it even implies 1 rec is too high with that 1 unsold link. As I said your proof just seems to be all over the place. Lastly, you should really have more sold/completed links rather than unsold links to support a new item's price range.

Ok, I get your point, let me explan my choice.

When the Poker 2 game was released (~1.5 weeks ago) there was a hype and people payed high prices to get this promos immediately. But there are a lot of cheaper ones right now in the market, impossible to sell for 1 keys. I shown examples of these sales just to prevent a situation when somebody will show these links in comments and will claim that the range should be 1 ref - 1 key.

I choose 2 ref as the high-end because somebody was able to sell it for this price 3 days ago, when the hype was over.

Now about the low-end. Very easy to get it for 1 ref. Only one guy is selling for 1 rec almost without bumps, it's not enough to include 1 rec to the range.

" Lastly, you should really have more sold/completed links rather than unsold links to support a new item's price range." - I tried to find more sold links, and, trust me, I spent a lot of time to it, but found only these. It's a low-demanded item, and because the demand less then the supply, impossible to find a lot of completed deals.

1-3.33 might be a better range to compensate for higher purchases.

There are too much unsolds for 3 ref - 1 key to include something less than 2 ref to the range. 1 week ago after releasing the game was a hype, and some people payed high prices to get this promos immediately. Now this hype is over, and a bit difficult to sell even for 1.33 - 2 ref. I suggests 2 ref as the high end only because somebody was able to sell it for this price 3 days ago.

I'm still seeing sales of 3.44 on OP and trade servers.

Could you show me the proof of it?

Unfortunately not on trade servers, and Im going out for a while, but if this is still open when I get back in a few hours Ill be happy to.
