Well here goes another suggestion of mine so don't be too harsh folks.

The last suggestion of 2.9-3.3 by Donny had 3 proof links and was accepted. I found that price ridiculous considering the offers I got. I didn't let it bother me too much until recently when in-game offers started to drop ridiculously in price.

Well here are links of the sellers of SS Bonk Boys (ALL between 3.5-4.5) also

offers range between 3.5-4 (if not all then most).

- http://www.tf2outpost.com/trade/11499691 (new ad-no offers-b/o of 3.5)

- http://www.tf2outpost.com/trade/11304677 (6 day old ad-top offer around 3.6-b/o of 4)

- http://www.tf2outpost.com/trade/11284503 (1 week old ad-top offer around 3.1-b/o of 4.5)

- http://www.tf2outpost.com/trade/6343834 (6 month old ad- top offers around 4 [headcase back when 3.5 and a 5 bud offer by a guy who also offered 4 on mine but his bp is private so no idea whether he purchased one already or not since he spammed in quite a few posts]-b/o of 5)

- http://www.tf2outpost.com/trade/11399437 (3 day old ad-no offers- b/o of 4)

- http://www.tf2outpost.com/trade/10474637 (1 month old ad-offers in unusual around 3.6-b/o unset since selling as a set ONLY)

- http://www.tf2outpost.com/trade/10120944 (1 month old ad- set offers mostly along with a 3.5-3.6 unus offer on just ss bonk- b/o 4 pure)

- http://www.tf2outpost.com/trade/10331306 & http://www.tf2outpost.com/trade/9784152 ( ~2 months old ads- set offers mostly but unus offers upto 3.6 and a pure offer by slappy at 86 keys but since he has a SS bonk and sissel hasnt sold his indicates slappy bought one from someone else-b/o's n/a but around 88 keys as he mentions)

- http://www.tf2outpost.com/trade/3391423 (9 months old ad- offers ranging from above 4 to below 3 so uncertain- ridiculous b/o of 7 pure indicates picky and slow trader who enjoys his bonk >:D)

- http://www.tf2outpost.com/trade/11380812 (4 days old ad - offers of a 7-8 bud unus[antifreeze-gatsby] on bb set with bubbles at 3 indicates ~4-4.5 for SS - b/o of 4.5 pure)

- http://www.tf2outpost.com/trade/11467499 (1 day old ad - no offers - b/o of 4)

Finally my ad which has been running and has most of the common offers as with the BB's mentioned above:

http://www.tf2outpost.com/trade/8033599 (4 month old ad - offers ranging 3.6-4- b/o of 5)

Well if you have any comments in mind please do let me know before you cast your vote. Would love for this to go as well as possible so ill be readily available for all doubts, questions and critical thoughts!

B/O's doesn't mean much.

http://forums.backpack.tf/index.php?/topic/7-how-to-create-a-good-unusual-price-suggestion/

I've reported from offers to buyouts so ALL the information i can present is available.

You're talking about B/O where the B/O ain't such a good proof , beside I've checked all the offers on your proofs , the offers were balanced between 3 and 3.3 so there's absolutly no reason to raise price to 3.5-4.

Downvoting for now.

hmm alrighty let me do a detailed explanation of why again it should be upvoted, Might take a while so hope you might be patient. Thanks for the quick response btw.

your link 1 has a b/o of 3.5 buds and no offers.

b/o's don't matter.

Two other kind folk have mentioned that above if you read it and i answered that below be re-instating the proof without b/os and with just offers.

yeah i see.

your bonk boy:

stormy veil isn't 3.5, more like 3.2 buds.

you didn't take in unusual overpay for any of the offers.

Hmm well veil isnt exactly 3.2, considering bp.tf's price itself also 3.5 is the mid value of it which would be the unus overpay right?

yes it is.

middle value * 0.9 = unusual overpay price.

3.5 * 0.9 = 3.2 pure.

how is taking the middle value including overpay?

Oh darn it. I completely forgot the 90% of mid. Well ill get my overall calculation done again. Thanks for the reminder. Also thats only one offer, if you go thoroughly through all the links, you will notice the different offers along with the odd pure offers dotted across, if you read what I wrote to Ramses below, you might understand my point.

yeah. alright then. no problem. all the other offers are from over a month ago. the veil was the highest offer within the month. you can't just assume that they sold for 3.5-4 as that were their b/o's. you have to prove what they sold for by looking at the item history.

Alright so here's proof #1:

In Sissels ad if you noticed what i wrote, it shows that he had an offer of 86 keys by slappy (~3.5+/-) which was hidden in his ad. Slappy on the other hand managed to still retrieve a SS Bonk Boy, most probably at that same price on an approx since that was his will to pay.

Next, recently there was a Bonkboy on a quicksell price of 3 buds pure and within the week it was sold. Considering the speed of the sale and that it was a 'quicksale price', the actual price is clearly not the current range of 2.9-3.3 but higher.

In my ad

http://www.tf2outpost.com/trade/8033599 &

i have had offers of:

- Holiday Headcase 1 month ago (3.5 Buds at the price at that time)

- Stormy Veil (3.5 in Unusuals)

- 4 buds (by chold but retracted since i asked him to add sweets or nope http://www.tf2outpost.com/trade/9672209)

- Steaming BB + Blizz Beret (by Thunder ~3.4-3.6 in unusuals http://www.tf2outpost.com/trade/9672209)

http://www.tf2outpost.com/trade/11380812

- he had few offers BUT he has an offer of an anti freeze gatsby(~7 in unus) for both BB's and if the bubbling is considered 2-2.5, the offer on the Stormy would be ~4-4.5 in unus

http://www.tf2outpost.com/trade/6343834

- had a 5 pure offer by Tenebre who i saw offered on 3 other BB's currently no longer on the market, but he hid his post on two and with a pvt. bp it indicates he mightve gotten his BB at said price.

- was offered a g, energy tree (~3.7 in unusuals)

By this i conclude the current range is too low but i might consider changing the suggested range from 3.5-4 to 3.3-3.7 If it seems alright.

So the current price is fine. 3.5 should be the upper, it just got down to 3.3 because of the bud/key changing.

G. Energy Tree offer was 3 months ago.

Hmm i see, also you mustve noticed the drop in SS Bonk Boys in the market.

Around 2-3 months ago there were easily 3-5 pages of bonkboys on op. Now theres around 1-2 pages worth. This shows alot have already been sold and most of them had 3.5-4 b/os. Only way they wouldve been sold would be:

a) quicksells or b) Buyout was met right?

This is much better than at the top ^^ -good offers -offers for month

I think 3.2-3.7-no more -many B/O-4 -no results , recent sales 3-3,5 buds , few offers >3.5 buds.
