Suggestion: Earbuds at 16–16.5 keys

Just sold mine for a Black bill's(7) + pink bmoc (~10) + Pink Veil (~1) + Team Captain(~1) - outlier, but sure proves above 16 is still possible. Sold a few at 16.5 -

But I also managed to get 13 for 16 each very quickly (less than 30mins) - http://www.tf2outpost.com/trade/20384686

Most of the 16 keys post are very young and a good amount of those are sold already. The others look to be poorly bumped. I'd say the current range is fine.

I wouldn't say the current range is fine when there are unsolds over a week at 17 buds. Also there is enough sellers at 16 keys to have it in the range, even if they sell within a week.

Most are selling in less than a day at 16 keys, even poorly bumped posts. I'd call that a quicksell.

Young or not, you can't deny the fact that its easy to get at 16 keys. There are countless of 16 key sellers at the moment. Yes, they do get taken pretty quickly but when you have more than enough people selling it for that price, that becomes the most common trading point.

I unno, I sold some buds for 17 keys

3 sales aren't enough to counter 100+ links

I'm not saying that your suggestion is wrong by any means, I'm just merely inputting my sales.

Sorry for the missunderstanding there.

I think the first trade was 16 keys each bud

Hmm while 16 seems to be becoming somewhat more common. 17 also has its place from what others are posting. Perhaps a 16-17 range would suffice.

Much possible sell for 17, mainly clean ones for collectors.16-17 should be the end-droping price :)

Please, look at my unsolds. They are there for a reason.

Please try usually trade with buds then

You're joking, right?

Instead of downvoting that person, I suggest all of you to do a little bit of research of your own.

I went to research if 17 keys sales are possible and all I found are more 15 - 16.5 key sales. 17 key rarely happens. There are staggering number of sales and sellers at 15 - 16.5 keys.

I only found about 3 to 4 sales at 17 keys whereas I found about close to 20 - 30 sales at 15 - 16.5 keys over a period of the last day and a half. I will gladly post those sales in a little while if that is really needed.

Thanks, finally somoene.

lol guys you really don't understeand why are other traders selling buds for cheaper and cheaper? they're just scared of pricing down of them, and if you will be still pricing them down and down, after holiday there will be buds for 1 key...

Buds are currently dropping because people want keys to sell on the SCM so they can buy games on sale during the Summer Sale. When the sale is over, buds will slowly rise back.

today i sold 1 for 17 keys: http://www.tf2outpost.com/trade/20495793#latest .... and keys is lowering again .. for me is a downvote.

Current range is fine, I've seen multiple sales at 17. Afraid im gonna have to downvote.

I'm pretty sure there are more sales happening in my range. Just saying.

Sales don't necessarily mean that it deserves to be in the range.

I'm just getting downvotes on every comment I make :P. But what matters if not sales? This site bases their prices of sales, aren't they?

Sales and unsolds for dropping a price and only solds for raising it. But quicksells shouldn't be included in the pricing. It then becomes a debate of what is a quicksell price here.

It actually does. If you have staggering amount of sales at the range you are suggesting, you clearly are showing that is the most common trading point at the moment.

Not necessarily. Quicksells are sales yet should not be included. In my personal opinion 16 keys looks like a quicksell as most trades only last a few hours. I would attribute the higher number of sales to the Summer Sale.

Its ridiculously easy to buy at 15 - 16 keys. Just because a thing is selling fast doesn't mean it shouldn't be included in the range. Quicksell aren't defined solely by the time it takes to sell an item. You don't seem to understand how it works and what exactly quicksell is. I will quote Polar by posting the picture of it.

I do understand, thanks. I am not basing my decision solely on the time in which they sold. From the proof I see here I am not convinced. As I stated above this is only my opinion, I am not here to argue.

It is quite easy to buy at 16, though there is proof that 17 sells. Maybe resuggest at 16-17?

Well, I thought the unsolds at days, weeks or even months would prove that 17 sells to hard.

There aren't enough sales for 17 to be in the range. I will quote what I posted to someone's reply here :

17 sells, though its quite slow and I only managed to get 1-2 sales a day of the 6 hours Im home.

Bought 17 at 15 Keys.

I just sold 3 buds for 17 keys each in less than 15 minutes. Not even bumped once. Downvote.

http://www.tf2outpost.com/trade/20519117#latest

Recently sold 1 for 17 keys, might be rare at 17, but happens.

http://www.tf2outpost.com/trade/20499301#latest i just sold one within a bump for 17 keys.. .

17 keys solds might be outliers in this case

Yep, just because a few people are getting lucky doesn't mean we can exclude the unsolds at days, weeks and even months. Luck doesn't equal proof.

More proof:

Selling for 16 keys:

They do sell quick but the amount of sellers at 16 keys is just to big to be ignored.

tons of buds being sold for 16 keys and even less, few for 17 as an exception

upvote!

http://bazaar.tf/trade/457852 - bot that mass sells for 16 keys + 3 refined

Thanks.

Finally someone made this. I was going to try and take a shot at it, but I wouldnt've had this much proof. :v

Although there are alot of sellers at 16-16.5, 17 still seems to happen ocassionally. Staying neutral on this one

It happens, yea. But I believe a range of 16-16.5 would be more accurate than 16.5-17 or 16-17. 16.5-17 Gives an average of 16.75, I'm pretty sure that's not the average trading point at the moment. An average of 16.25 though makes much more sence and I think I've provided all proof needed for the earbuds to drop in price.

I guess I'm gonna get downvoted to hell for this comment aswell :P.

Just wondering but if keys are going down, wouldn't buds naturally rise in price? Or is it because of the summer sale that both currencies are going down?

Seems weird to me too. Probably the summer sale's fault.

i miss the old days when it was worth about 20 keys

Me too, it'll rise soon, don't worry :P

And when u think the bud's price will raise again?

Most likely sometime after summer sale. Maybe in mid July? Could be a little bit later.

Its ever happen like that? Before summer' sale the bud's price down and raise after summer' sale?

Yeah, it happens every year, its just that this year buds started to go down a little bit earlier, they go back up though. :P

Nice to know ty to explain really aprecciate it

those are not the old days, I lost a lot when they rapidly dropped from 28 key mark

i was rapped selling at 16 keys 6 buds in 1 min- http://www.tf2outpost.com/trade/20553990#latest

16 keys is Quicksell price but there is alot for 16

This has already been discussed
