Suggestion: Strange Medi Gun at 0.88–1 ref

Originally exclusively available in Crate #26, this strange healing device was re-introduced in Crate #55, leading to an influx of Medi Guns. According to stats.tf (http://stats.tf/item/211/Medi_Gun), the Medi Gun is ranked 5th in most unboxed strange, with 173 THOUSAND copies and an equip rate of 106,845 (61.76%) equipped. With stranges, equip rate is usually equivalent to the demand of the item. The equipped stranges usually signifies that the owner bought the medi gun to use it. As you can see, the demand, or equip rate is not even close to the number of copies that exist. The demand does not match the supply. In this case, the demand is much lower than the supply. Therefore, not many are willing to buy for the 1 ref price, but instead buy for the discounted price.

The proof above shows an abundance of quicksells under 0.88, and a massive number of unsolds at 1 ref. After 2 months, this price needs to go down, as the sells at 0.88 outnumber those at 1 ref.

Comments, hates, loves, suggestions, and even counter-suggestions are welcome. Thank you for your time and I will reiterate: please take my proof into consideration when voting.

While it is hard to sell at 1 ref (due to the huge amount of trades, just common knowledge of having lots of competition makes it harder) I don't think that .88 should be in the range.

Your unsolds at 1 ref are almost all not bumped frequently, leading to invalid proof. As for me, I've already sold a few.

Most on backpack.tf sell at 1 ref even, which I believe is fair:

Also on tf2outpost, 1 ref is a common price:

Quick sales usually go for .88 to .95 ref, but honestly a 1 ref strange is a good deal, especially for a medic who's looking to pimp out their load out (that's me).

My quicksell section shows that the quicksells are not 0.88 or 0.95, but 0.66-0.77 and lower

I know I went searching through your listings after I made my post hoping to find one at your suggested quicksell prices, you're totally right on .66 ref

I just bought one for .88 ref, I should have read your review first buddy. Sorry about that.

I actually support this to be lower

Ive had these 2 mediguns for a while now: http://www.tf2outpost.com/trade/15746493 (much longer than the trade suggests)

The classifieds are a fair window to the state of the market:

You've got .88 solds and that's it - the reason your .88 are solds is because everything else than 1 ref is a quicksell. Quicksells are not proof.

Nor are unsolds.

Downvote.

Sorry, but this is a downvote. Current price seems fine.~

i sold a lot of mediguns for 1 ref..

It seems 1 ref sales still do happen, as some of those 1 ref are now sold. A few of the .88 ones are unsold, but those are poorly bumped. It seems 1 ref is still a somewhat stable price, and anything lower gets sold rather quickly.
