The 1 of 1 base metal + a bud was sold for a Stormy KE

Pretty straightforward, and seems legit. Upvote.

Checked bp history, 1 of 1

Good proof, upvoted

It's a really nice hat really legit. Upvote

He could have gotten way more than a Stormy KE, I would have even rejected 1:1. Dumb trade, but upvote.

Hey! Dumb trade my a$$. I posted it on Outpost for more than a week, with a B/O of 4 Buds. And all I got were mediocre offers.

I was after a KE, so I offered a 1:1 trade for all the KE with O. Fire, Blizzardy, and Stormy, posted on Outpost and got rejected by ALL of them. Even offered the Billy + 1 Bud to some of them, and they wanted me to add around 12 Keys.

There's A LOT of hate towards Robo-Hats/Effects, so I'm upvoting because it's a logical price right now, but I'm sure it's doomed to go down as soon as another Scorching Metal Billy appears.

That's because you goofed already by putting a price of 4 buds, then goofed even further by calling it a B/O. Not your fault, since you're new to unusual trading, but if it'd been given to a more experienced trader, it's almost certain they could have squeezed a fair bit more out of it.

I 'squeezed' 8 Buds pure out of the first Power Surge Your Worst Nightmare, which I unboxed. And if I'm honest, it's a hat that I'd say is worth 3.5 - 4 tops. So, yeah, I might be new to Unusual trading, but I do a lot of research before trading and setting a price to a hat.

Normal Scorching Billy goes for 4 Buds, 5 Buds tops. Having in mind that 80% of Unusual traders hate Robohats, (and that it looks ugly as f#ck) it was already a stretch to set a buyout of 4 Buds for the Scorching Metal Billy. Taking that into account, and the facts that Spy is not the most favourite class, and Billyock not the most favourite Spy hat, How and Why would I expect to get more than 4 or 5 Buds out of that hat?! It's not like we're talking about a Familiar Fez or Charmer's Chapeau, it's a Billycock, and a Metal one...
