Can it be done? Can this monstrocity we call a hat actually hit rock bottom? I can see it now, Ellis' Cap: 1 ref. Crafting won't be so bad. Not yet tho. But anyway, I have no idea why people want this hat, it looks like garbage (sorry to any fan boys). Hopefully my proof can show why this is so bad more than my intro.

Selling for .11 ref? Idk either.

Upvote. Ellis' Cap is perhaps the most common hat around and people are really quite sick of it. Price should have a little bump down.

Will he do it?

Upvote I bought some at 1.11 http://prntscr.com/1nipr0 , http://prntscr.com/1nipxu

and also at 1 refined http://prntscr.com/1niq4a and also when my friend was buying some ellis caps for 1.22 after 5 minutes he had already bought 2

upvote, very sufficient proof. kind of amazing that it could drop so much.

Do you have unsolds at 1.33?? Rest of proof is pretty good

well theres no point since 1.33 isnt in the current range

ohh yeah sorry man

everybody craft your ellis caps together until there are barely any left. and watch it raise to several keys so you can say that you remembered a time when you could buy ellis caps for 1 ref each and you did and you crafted them

I sold mine within a day at 1.33

http://www.tf2outpost.com/trade/13937140

Can screen shot my Trade history if you like.

It's alright when painted.

Unless it's painted something discusting like lime or brown.

Lime is an amazing paint. Perhaps, not in this context, but generally I enjoy Lime paint.

Lime is the worst paint in the game. It's an absolute eyesore when i see a lime scout running around.

Lime gibus. It burns.

No 3: I disagree, a lime ellis is best ellis.

Agreed with every word.

Join the Atomic Accolade right down there at the bottom of the hat stack! Shoo, please.

The chuck goes up.

Need more sellers & buyers @ 1.11

Utterly revolting hat. More importantly, craft hats are going to be 1 ref each soon and this beauty is leading the way. upvote.

Dude this is the best hat. Especially for heavy. Why wear any other hat. :)

Im serious this is my favorite hat in game wish it were in unusual form

Well, I've been awarded -4 so far so you're not alone. I think there's one unusual Ellis with circling dog-shit.

What an interesting and, more importantly to me, original choice for a favorite hat. There needs to be less people with generic hat favorites (Ex: Bills, Anger, Fast Learner, etc.), and more people with originality like you.

I personally am a fan of the Waxy Wayfinder.

I love the whoopee cap, it doesnt get much love, especially love it with gold, its a freaking crown damn it guys.

There's no way, not in a million years, craft hats would ever be 1 ref. There would be no reason to have Refined Metal, because hats would craft for 66% of the cost of ref. 1.33 makes sense, as when you craft 2 you only save .33

That's why you're getting downvotes.

They can shove their downvotes where the monkey shoved his nuts. It's irrelevant. Craft hats are already 1.22. They will be 1 ref sooner or later.

There's a snowball's chance in hell that a hat that is craftable would ever sell for 1 ref.

I don't get it. I sold 30 robo hats at 1.22 then the last 5 at 1.11. They're craft hats. Loads sell for 1.11. Craft hats will become 1 ref each.

They're robohats, 1.22 is the bottom line for craft hats. The vast majority of them are still, and always will be, 1.33.

Two years ago, craft hats were 1 ref.

Two years ago, refined was made in the MannConomy update. People didn't know what to pay.

Crafting/metal was introduced 4 years ago. Trading was introduced 3 years ago.

Oh snap I got my numbers wrong. Even so, people were buying hats for weapons back then, and it seemed fair at the time.

I wonder if craft hats will ever hit 0.88 :o upvote btw, fair proof.

Ive seen ppl offering .88 to 1 ref for craft hats in servers. They would have in there post "depending on hat" I own alot of trade servers and you see some crazy sh*t in there that you don't see on the web.

Nope. If anything 1 ref would be the min. Because

3 ref = random hat

2 hats = random hat

For 1.11:

L1: Insta sold

L2: 2 of the ellis's instasold

L3: Instasold

L4: Instasold

L5: Sold

1.11 sells way too fast to be included in the range, downvote.

http://www.tf2outpost.com/trade/13877606 - Still has one for sale after 3 days selling at 1.11 Refined. It doesn't matter if they sell fast. They are still available for 1.11 Refined.

he's talking about the general sales not one link

So your setting the low end based on 1 unsold. I'm talking about general sales, all save 1 went super fast.

http://www.tf2outpost.com/trade/13934706 another one that insta sold

This is still a craftable hat, and in my experience 1.11 is a quicksell for anything craftable....so I dunno.

I am honestly surprised they even went as high as they did in price considering the amount of them that are still out there. In my opinion i don't think should have ever gone above 1 ref. Back in the day i sold 115 of them to Pink taco for an unusual.(that i still have to this day)

It may truly be worth 1.11 ref, but how is that anything to celebrate? I miss the days when sellers rarely tried to sell for less than 1.33, and finding sellers at 1.22 was a great deal. Why should the value of craft hats fall when metal is also falling? I just don't get why you guys are so thrilled about this. It's bad. I'M NOT SAYING THE PRICE IS WRONG, I'M SAYING IT'S NOTHING TO BE HAPPY ABOUT.

I don't know why people are happy, but this is the gibus of tradable hats, it should be the cheapest hat out there. I hope the other hats DON'T go down that path, or the economy would crash with metal deflation and inflation happening simultaneously

Wow, Craft hats now for 1.11

Wow, Scrap.tf please help

Wow, TIME TO F**K UP GENUINES AND THE ELLIS' CAP!

Wow, show some damn proof.

Wow, post some constructive criticism

@OP

http://www.tf2outpost.com/trade/13958506 1 ref

http://www.tf2outpost.com/trade/13958108 1.11

http://www.tf2outpost.com/trade/13954579 1.11

however, they sell very quickly.

I thought craft hats would rise after people want to craft like crazy for dem lowcrafts

Well, I crafted about 5 of my ellis caps among other things for this update(worth it by the way). I'm thinking that should have some impact on the market(all the crafting not just mine) in the coming days/weeks.

I've actually bought ALOT for 1.11 using tf2OP.

Strong upvote.

Downvote because craft hat.

Just wait, scrap.tf will see this and lower its price to 1,11 for hats, then everyone will have a excuse to drop every other genuine to 1.11.

Proof is good on this suggestion to make it pass but this does not help the tf2 economy at all, it just hurts everyone in it.

Honestly, I like it when craft hats fall, because that means crafting is cheaper. Cheaper craft hats = More expensive hats.

I crafted 50 ellis caps into a bunch of low crafts last night, all because they were the cheapest hat. For those of you who can't stand craft hats lowering, just think about cheaper crafting...

Upvote.

then every other hat goes down because everyone is crafting it.

In theory, yes. In practice, no :3

We don't know if it works in practice yet,

I've bought 4 for 1 ref each. I think it's very possible, all of these adds were within less than a day of posting the trade.

its a craft hat that can be sold for 1.33 ref, f*** those who think about 1.11-1.22 at standart price.

Prove that you can sell these for 1.33 then?

all my tf2 time since start everytime i sell craft hats at 1.33 sucessfully

Yes, those are the tons of other craft hats out there, this is an Ellis cap, the most common hat out there and people can't sell them at 1.33. Give me recent proof of 1.33 and then you can make an argument on the pricing of this particular hat.

can sell on servers where ppl buy craft hats for 1.33, rare but its not impossible.

You aren't getting the point, I want you to "PROVE" it, I could say that I sold a few Headsplitters for 2 ref on a trade server fairly quick and it's the same amount of proof that you're giving me.

Well, I consider the hat kinda cool, helps make your heavy look look like a redneck with the All Father equipped. Anyway, staying neutral personally, but the proof looks good, and I see no reason to vote on the contrary.

I would buy all the ellis hats for 1,11 ref if I had enough metal. That range smells highly of lowball.

The thing is, Ellis is usable in crafting, so it would be filled in people's inventories for crafting better, unique hats. It shouldn't be lowered lower than a ref.

How come Scrap.tf; who buys and sells these for 1.22 does not have a single one in stock then?

Either so people can redump them into scrapbank.me like a middle schooler who thinks he's tough 'cause he can break a pencil in half, or because people use them as a cheaper way to craft hats.

Sweet, now I can craft hats for only 2.22

Thanks Peter!

I'm in The Dat BookMark Second Link Visit My Trade If You Are Intersted and i Think ellis cap must be Same us Uncraft Hat Worth 2 Rec or .77 Thats Fair For ellis Cap So Every One Can Buy it

I Love Putting Caps In Every Word Too.

It's still a craft hat, whether or not anyone likes it. the minimum value it could ever have is 1.22 but most people with a brain would just vend it to scrap.tf for 1.33 instead of accepting a loss like this.

Scrap.TF no longer pays 1.33 for craft hats. They pay 1.22, and that is reduced to 1.11 for Ellis' Caps.
