Looking at the last suggestion, he provided tiny bit of proof but people actually do sell for 4 and unsuccessful for 5

2/5.60 (med key price) = .35

4.35 is super weird

2/5.60 (current key price) = .35

I believe rounding to 4.4 keys is appropriate

The 4 key sellers sold out quickly, the only trade that still is selling it is the 2nd link. The range is quite odd also, but what do I know, a suggestion on the strange reserve shooter once had something like 2.77-5.33 and it was accepted. And yes, I have one, and yes, I don't want my bp to drop by a couple cents.

http://www.tf2outpost.com/trade/12564321 - Sold for 5

http://www.tf2outpost.com/trade/12665609 - Sold for 6 with St parts

I noticed some of your 5 key sellers, don't bump very often. You can't sell when you don't bump.

3Keys + 3Ref

And what are you suggesting with 3keys and 3 ref? That would be an outliner.

nice catch current price stinks

I See What you did there.

I don't see anything fishy about his comment, anyone show me?

I don't get it..

http://www.tf2outpost.com/trade/12379705 < I've been trying to buy for 4 keys and haven' got much luck on buyers.

So how can your 4 be in rage, when it's so hard to get?

http://www.tf2outpost.com/trade/12354162 < I sold for 5 keys..but maybe 4.75 if you don't count the parts?

Generally speaking sellers tend to ignore buying trades as they naturally assume it will be a lowball. Most if the timw you will only get people who genuinely need some quick metal or spam from high ballers (y)

That logic is so flawed when I easily get adds when I price something too high.

The current price is 5 keys..anyone who tries to sell for less is quickselling. So why wouldn't they check to see if a quickseller would pay a key less?

It's so common for a quickseller to offer 1 key less.

Im not trying to argue that the suggested price is right or not, im simply saying that people dont view buying trades as much compared to selling trades as it's natural for the buying trade to be lowballing true no?

Eg. The first thing a seller is going to do when he/she wants to sell something isnt to check buying trades but to just made their own trade as they expect buying trades to lowball.

Please always define odd ranges.

odd ranges > methinks its> showing the lowball offers or desperate sales, hi end would be shark sales or extremely hard to find you pay out wazoo range.

How was that ?

why negative ? Odd ranges meaning 1/3 or anything different than a 1/4 key

maybe ? can mean both right ?

4 keys is highly unsupported using trades that were put up just today and when you have quicksell buyers paying 4 keys for it on occasion.

Thats odd but deserves a good upgoat

It sure needs an update but the high end is a little low i think. Its pretty expensive and doesnt sell very fast.

60% of your links have less than 1 week up. This is a wep that take at least 10 days to sell unless its a quicksell

Wouldnt you say that taking 10 days to sell one weapon is abit too long?

How long you take to sell a car for the "right" price? Did you ever tried to sell an expensive thing on ebay? How long it takes to sell? I'm pretty sure it takes much more than 10 days.

We are not talking about unusuals or vintages, heck even vintages dont take that long to sell and it's one of the slowest moving markets.

For a weapon that takes more than 10 days to sell ill say thats definitely too long. There is no comparison to expensive things irl when this is a relatively cheap weapon compared to others. Even the s.festive version is cheaper. Makes you wonder why it takes more than 10 days right?

A least 10 days or it is invalid seems legit...

All the poly count items died all the prices crippled

I have seen it being sold for 4keys 1 ref and lower not looking good for the epic fish slapping weapon

So your saying that an extra 25 hp makes a difference? Just because polycount bonus was removed doesn't mean that the item is going to go down just because of the polycount. You can still use it to slap people...
