This is a weird little hat, it has been on quite the journey. I am almost Positive that the reason this hat traded so high, is because A LOT of people think that the effect Haunted Ghosts is a Halloween Effect and that this hat is glitched or something.

Hat Owner #1 - 4x Weeks ago

http://www.tf2outpost.com/trade/11377087 - Received no offers on his trade but a quick search through the trade history shows that Josthin_™ received a Human Cannonball w/ Cauldron Bubbles from Capitan Coraje for the Boron Beanie w/ Ghosts + 1x Bud + 1x Max. Capitan Coraje’s reasoning for trading such a valuable hat for the beanie “Hallowen Effect - Robo hat ! excelent hat! offer me” http://www.tf2outpost.com/trade/11399333

Sale Price: Human Cannonball w/ C. Bubbles (16x buds) - 1x bud - (Max)~2 -- To Captain Coraje = ~13x Buds

Hat Owner #2

Capitan Coraje continued to claim that Ghosts was a Halloween effect. Proof from his trade below, I’m not sure if he continued to say it on servers.

Sale Price: Metal Slug w/ Green Black Hole – Apparently 1:1 – To Zero Soul = ~5.9x Buds

Hat Owner #3

Zero Soul was also asked how his hat had a Halloween Effect, he responded “idk, ask gabe” http://www.tf2outpost.com/trade/11662397

Sale Price: Full Metal Drill Hat w/ Green Black Hole – Apparently 1:1 – To Sweetmask ;D |Canas|= ~6.4x Buds

Hat Owner #4

Sweetmask ;D |Canas| was once AGAIN asked how this hat had a Halloween Effect on it, he responded “Yeah, its strange i think the same :3” http://www.tf2outpost.com/trade/11837632

And again, on the same trade, when another person wrote of the craziness of a Halloween Effect at this time of year, Sweetmask ;D |Canas| just hid the post, instead of denying it.

Last offer received 5 days ago

ALSO, a quick search shows us a Boron Beanie w/ Sunbeams, a higher effect than Ghosts. It was available for 3 weeks at 6x Pure http://www.tf2outpost.com/trade/11367354

and with offers topping out at 4x pure,

the trade owner decided to bump it down to 5x Pure http://www.tf2outpost.com/trade/11845237 which it has been at for the past week with not a single offer.

I cannot support a price higher than Sunbeams when the evidence shows ignorance as the possible reason for so much overpay. It would look bad on backpack.tf if this hat had a price of 6.3 pure imo.
