I am getting SO Pi**** off at this. I've lost count of times where I have screwed up This will be my last price suggestion If I keep doing it wrong. As a message, will a Mod please delete my previous suggestions? Thanks. Anyway... sorry for submitting multiple suggestions, it's spam and I wouldn't blame you if you banned me for a few days.

For the love of pancakes, this is the third time I have screwed it up. OKAY, Here we go.

I think The price of this should lower because it is hard to sell for 6 keys. here is my proof.

Selling/Unsold at 6 keys.

http://www.tf2outpost.com/trade/11093366 - 3 days. No buyers

http://www.tf2outpost.com/trade/11190146 - 5 keys, 2 ref. quicksell (I think). 18 hours.

http://www.tf2outpost.com/trade/10691619#/37897184 - no offers on fish, assuming he wants 6 keys. not sure. I asked him though.]

http://www.tf2outpost.com/trade/10945019 - selling for BP tf price. so thats 6 - 5.6 keys.

No adds.

http://www.tf2outpost.com/trade/11025336 - 6K +1 ref for fish. had S. parts/Renamed. Not a bad price, but still no buyers.

http://www.tf2outpost.com/trade/10979666 - 1 week, no buyers.

http://www.tf2outpost.com/trade/11190233 - 19 hours. not sure if this is valid.

http://www.tf2outpost.com/trade/11114304 - 2 days. No adds/offers.

http://www.tf2outpost.com/trade/10548034 - #Cant be bothered to look through all the offers...

http://www.tf2outpost.com/trade/11179185 - 1 day, no buys.

http://www.tf2outpost.com/trade/11186252 - 22 hours.

http://www.tf2outpost.com/trade/11141660 - 2 days, wants 5 keys for it! No adds...

http://www.tf2outpost.com/trade/10651691 - 2 weeks, no buyers.

http://www.tf2outpost.com/trade/10756769 - another 2 week sale. No buyers. I am dissapoint.

Now. I don't know how to find people who have already sold it/bought it. So if you could provide counterproof, I would be very thankful. I don't really buy stuff from tf2outpost. So I don't know what to do. Anyway, if you want me to add more proof, then say so, and I'll try and add some more later. btw, this is my second price suggestion, so I might of done something wrong. please notify me if I did.

By the way again, I had a strange holy makarel. I had it up for about 3 - 4 days. I think, but I sold it for Left 4 Dead 2. Look at my trading history if you can, i'm not sure how to.

Well 50% of the people that you listed as unsold, the mackeral is actually out of their bp so half your proof is counterproof+you have none showing it can sell for 5.6 downvote

if it's out of their backpacks, then why is the trade still up and being bumped? I don't get this crap.

idk people are wierd :/

Actually, if you cant sell it for 6 keys, then what's it supposed to go down to? I guessed it's lowest BP price. Excuse me.

Well still it shows that people can sell it so whats the point of fixing it, the range is accurate as it is sorry :/

awful proof downvote

Can you please provide links of it being just sold for 5.6 keys and not lower or higher? Why 5.6 keys FLAT?

I sold my mackerel for 6 keys after 1 day of having my trade up

http://puu.sh/33wOY.png

Dont have range again :?

Unsold mackerels at 6 keys does not prove that you should completely remove the range and leave it at 5.6 without any other form of proof whatsoever. Get your grammar and temper sorted out, too, please.

If you want to actually prove your no-range price suggestion, you must show that selling the mackerel at anything above 5.6 at all is impossible and that buying it below 5.6 is also difficult. Otherwise, you need to change your price suggestion, or just close it and give up.

Your attitude is disgusting. Sure, i'm new, whatever. I'm not perfect. I don't understand this price thingy, i'm trying to get the hang of it and I expect people to be nice and point out my wrong-doings. All you're doing is "Omg do this and do that , oh ima throw in a comment abot ur grammer aswell cuz im a a*shole.

YE LEE KICK HIS ASS

Comments like this are off-topic and will get you warned by a mod.

I've been on bp.tf alot long than you broski I already know I'm going to get warned by an admin but I had to

Dude seriously shut up, I hate to pull the cliche, but are you 3 or something? Kids shouldn't be playing tf2.

Now that is some bad attitude. You are proving my point better than I ever could.

Sorry but I have a pet hate for immaturity on the internet, little kids and/or people acting like them seriously tick me off.

True that, he probably woke up on the wrong side of the bed

Dude what are you twelve? Dude Im sixteen, you can't take a joke in your life? Probably you can't cause you cry like a little girl after Lee whoops your ass

Ahh don't worry about him. People like him are called "Uptight" and they can't have a little laugh once in a while because he doesn't know what "Laughter" is. And him insulting people doesn't support his argument and terrible attitude. :)

Ok whining about Immaturity, says the guy saying "oh I hate Cliches" or "Kids shouldn't be playing tf2" Jesus Christ you're the person everyone hates in tf2 a bias scrub who cannot accept anyone unless your similar to them, do me a favor and go back to your little hole so no one can hear your non sense of incorrect sentences and grammer

If anything your attitude is even worse. I pointed out that your argument was flawed, then went on to criticising your literacy skills, which aren't anything to do with you being a backpack.tf newbie.

My whole second paragraph was advice for how you could do better, it's your choice whether you take criticism properly like you really want to learn or whether you go and have a tantrum and whine about it.

You dare defy Lee, he'll keel you like what he did to Clementines kidnappers ._.

"Get your grammar and temper sorted out, too, we don't really care how you feel, bluntly.

It would've been better if you had said " Your grammar is bad dude, please fix it".

I didn't mind the second paragraph as much. I would've thanked you for it if it wasn't for your first paragraph.

Alright well if that was too blunt for you, I can take it back if it makes you feel any better. The point was that suggestions should be plain evidence and sometimes a small apology for mistakes such as submitting multiple suggestions - not stuff such as: "I am getting SO pissed of(f) at this." and: "For ~~god~~ (God's) sake."

In addition, if you're still unsure about how to view trading history.... Go to your inventory on Steam, then click on "View Inventory History" in the top-left corner.

Now THAT is the attitude I am expecting off people. You shall get a like on your comment to show you that I appreciate it.

Tbh I don't care for likes apart from the fact that the two of you have seemingly DISliked every single one of my comments, but whatever, I don't have time for petty arguments such as this. I have a life to get on with, but as a leaving note I'd get that 5.6 key proof on as quickly as possible because most people will just see this, downvote, and never come back if they don't see the proof.

Okay then. Thanks for the highly wanted constructive critisism.

Pertaining to the whole 'literacy skills' fight, I felt obligated to show that even you aren't picture perfect at grammar.

"...which aren't anything to do with you being a backpack.tf newbie."

It should be your being a backpack.tf newbie. Now I don't expect every run-of-the-mill internet user to know that, but for a person who is hypercritical of others on impertinent matters such as grammar, mate, you don't seem that smart.

Just because I'm trying to correct his obviously flawed grammar does not mean that I am claiming to be perfect. In addition, if one is posting an official suggestion to be scrutinised by others, utmost care should be taken to ensure that at least basic literacy skills are employed. On the other hand, if I am posting several comments while dealing with other ongoing issues in my life and hence not paying as much attention to my language in each and every individual post, one minor slip is not unusual. y u do dis

Bullshit. He's providing constructive criticism, and that's how you react?

And like I have said. If someone could PLEASE tell me how to search for things that have already been sold, I will go find some proof of it being successfully being sold at 5.6 keys.

Its really hard to search those, thats the hard part for finding proof, but you can find the cheapest one's and put them up as additional proof :)

First off, why did you blur out the word pissed? It's not really a curse, it's more of a synonym for mad. Second of all, nice proof, I vote yes.

Thanks :)

here's some extra proof links if you want them :)

http://www.tf2outpost.com/trade/11190342 Selling for 6 keys but w/ a buildings destroyed part attached The suggestion is for clean s. mackerels so leave strange parts out of this (painted bills ≠ unpainted bills crisis)

http://www.tf2outpost.com/trade/11216262 Selling for less than 5.5 keys

http://www.tf2outpost.com/trade/11139764 Selling for about 5.6 keys Actually selling for 5 keys+4 ref=5.75 keys

Reading that argument over painted Bill's must've given me an ulcer... but yes this is good clarification

Sold for 6 keys

http://www.tf2outpost.com/trade/11213708 1 day

http://www.tf2outpost.com/trade/10792397 1 week

http://www.tf2outpost.com/trade/10979666 1 week

Offered 6 keys

http://www.tf2outpost.com/trade/10830682 (by you)

I just created a new suggestion with a range I like better

http://backpack.tf/vote/id/51a585a7ba25360f74000003

Link #2 was sold

Link #9 had an offer, I actually looked and it took 2 seconds

Link #12 was sold for 6 keys but had a strange part so it was probably swiped quickly because of that

Link #14 was sold for 6 keys

I wont be the last to say that selling does not equal sold. You need to find more proof that these are selling for your suggested price. There is only one link that does this.

Staying neutral. While unsuccessful at 6, it goes without saying that almost all items should have a range.

I'm sorry, but despite your proof, you used the words "I think", which implies that it is a matter of opinion, and that you should receive a downvote from me.

it's not just opinion if there's sufficient proof
