First suggestion- if it sucks, sorry but I’m learning.

Undesired 2012 festive- nobody buys for 5 keys.

Proof:

Trade.tf: [url]http://trade.tf/deals/search/Sell/All/Festive%20Buff%20Banner/all/1[/url] tendency to go for at least 1 ref under its value (I don’t know if trade.tf counts)

Research at TF2WH shows they’re priced at less than 5 keys

Backpack.tf classifieds: [url]http://backpack.tf/classifieds/search/strange%20festive%20buff%20banner[/url] all for 5 keys but also unsold

Unsold (probably a few will have sold, especially <5 keys):

Note: when I was getting my proof I avoided sets and trades that were 2 months or older (due that being the time of the last accepted suggestion)

Decreasing demand for this festive in comparison to Strange Festive GL or Strange Festive Huntsman (it is in my opinion that this is one of the least desired 2012 festives).

Sellers want 5 keys (and aren’t selling) while buyers want 3 or 4 keys (and aren’t buying). I could not find one instance of a Strange BB going for 5 keys (I chalk it up to my inexperience). Hence a suggestion of a price of 4-5 keys as a more accurate representation.

I hope I did this right. This is a learning experience for me.
