Speks need to be wrapped to be given to another, and judging by the amount of "I'm not going to wrap this for you" sellers, the price needs a drop. I know that the misc is pretty cool, but selling it is just too much trouble. I like to look at where strangifiers for speks are at this point, even though they are not speks themselves, they have been on a decline since they popped up. I think you can go pick one up now for 2 ref, which is how I obtained my speks. This gives a pretty clear picture to the drop in demand. I cannot find anyone that has sold strange speks for a key in roughly a month. It is actually pretty hard to find anybody that actually has sold speks. Please stop people form thinking this tawdy item is ever worth a key.


Proofs:

pages of non-offers

DeputyDeath666: yesh

Taquilaaaaaaah: why didn't you take that offer?

DeputyDeath666: he's not online :D

Taquilaaaaaaah: do you have wrap

DeputyDeath666: no

(Raist seems to be not responding).

http://www.tf2outpost.com/trade/16265397 (2 ref) no offers, bumped religiously

http://www.tf2outpost.com/trade/16675067 (5 ref) no offers

http://www.tf2outpost.com/trade/16409686 (3.33 ref) no offers on speks

http://www.tf2outpost.com/trade/16738392 (1 ref) no offers

http://www.tf2outpost.com/trade/16856481 (also 1 ref) no offer

Gee, you'd think if there was any demand there would be maybe an offer on the 2 one refined sellers.


Strangifiers:

Yes, I know that strangifiers are not speks, but it still costs less than the current price to buy speks and then buy a strangifier. You still have to wrap the speks, and can just trade the strangifier.

you can easily pick up a strangifier for 2-3 refined

You can pick up the speks for 2 ref or 2.33 ref

(these don't even require gift wrap)

total cost 4-5.33 ref, not a key.

    Organize this this just looks a wall of text.

      Links (in order of appearance):

      He edited...

        I see that speks need to be dropped, but where did 5-6 ref come from?

          I wanted to set it below a key, but not too below.

            But based on your evidence, 5-6 ref doesn't seem to happen more than any other amount being sold for.

              All I really wanted was for people to stop thinking it was worth a key.

              The 5 ref low is from the previous price, I just lowered the higher end of the range.

              5 ref= 0.8 keys

                But perhaps it could use a more well thought out price?

          Yeah, I have mine on the market, nobody wants to compensate me for wrapping.

          Price set at 0.44.

          0.66 with compensation if I wrap.

          this is lower than actual speks, no interest.

          Every one of your links are broken.

            sorry about that

            Wierd I cant seem to be able too see any of the trades

              someones are selling speks like this: Someone has like unlimited premium upgraded accounts and he/she asks like1.33-2 ref for giving him and then he gives u speks

                Bunch of soapboxing and talking trash imo. Downboat

                  Well your prices seem to be all over the place, with only one link at 5 ref. I would focus on finding more links at around the same price, then re suggesting.
