Alright, it signed me out as soon as I saved the suggestion, so here goes another half an hour of finding the proof all over again. These are getting harder to sell for the current as there is less demand. Proof below:

Unsold for 3.66

http://www.tf2outpost.com/trade/9785906 - Unsold for a month

http://www.tf2outpost.com/trade/10797817 - Unsold for 2 weeks

Unsold for less than 3.66

http://www.tf2outpost.com/trade/11096500 - Selling for 3.00 and still unsold for 6 days.

http://www.tf2outpost.com/trade/10842998 - Selling for 3.33 and unsold for 2 weeks.

Sold within price range

http://www.tf2outpost.com/trade/11124907 - Sold for 3.33

http://www.tf2outpost.com/trade/11179122 - Sold for 3.44

http://www.tf2outpost.com/trade/11235605 - Sold 2 for 3.33

There is also a bunch of unsuccessful sellers at 3.66 that have had their trades up a day or less so I have chosen to not include them.

That's all I have for now, if you think there's anything to add, just let me know or comment it yourself.

I think the price range is good as it still includes the current price. But please give your feedback on it.

This is also my first suggestion, so I may have missed something, don't kill me over it, just let me know and I'll do the best I can.

Thanks!

Just a tip you should not base your entire suggestion on unsold links. Your bulk proof should be coming from sold under the old price and within the new price.

Other than that it looks good.

Unsolds are invalid proof. Read here for details.

Case in point, your 'selling for 3.33 and unsold for 2 weeks' has 11 strange sandmans in his backpack. The number he has actually sold is entirely unknown.

That said, you're keeping 3.66 in range, and you've shown a handful of traders willing to take lower. It'd be nice to see a little bit more of traders willing to take 3.33 ref instead of leaning more heavily on 'unsuccessful at 3.66' to make the point, but looks pretty good otherwise.

Edit: Commenters leaping in to make my point for me. I am very pleased. :D

your link 1 got an offer of 2 tour of duty tickets - 1 rec -- 3.66.

can you please provide more proof of sales at 3.33?

I'll get onto that

I'll second that. A massive bunch of unsolds is insufficient proof - it masks the fact that you only have 3 links to completed trades. Find more sales at 3.33 and I'll agree with you.

Unsolds are an invalid type of proof, as stated by Vincent. Basically, if the majority of it is unsold, most of it is invalid. Just the sight of people selling for less is a good enough proof, but I'm not seeing enough for a definite price change.

More Proof of sold within price range

http://tf2tp.com/trade.php?trade=9493958 - Sold at 3.44

http://tf2tp.com/trade.php?trade=9491672 - Sold at 3.33

http://tf2tp.com/trade.php?trade=9484778 - 2 Sold at 3.00

THIS GUY IS RIGHT

http://www.tf2outpost.com/trade/11139289 sold for 4 ref

http://www.tf2outpost.com/trade/11222679 sold for 4 ref

http://postimg.org/image/f4xo6c71t/ sold for dillinger duffel + 2 ref, sold dillinger for 2 ref (i added dota as i was giving them away on the server)

pff, i dunno just posting this here.

Also alot of your unsold have never been bumped.

The first 2 of your links could have been sold for less, there is no proof of them being sold at 4 ref as no one has commented to confirm. So I can't be sure about those two. The last link looks fine though.

well, like that you can discard alot of proof from alot of suggestions as the only way to know it is to contact the seller/buyer.

Yeah you're probably correct, I take it back. We can only assume from the evidence .
