offer at 5 keys is for a special level one.

Offer 5 keys in items =/= 5 keys (need to take over pay for items)

You dont have enough proof @5 keys. Many of your links are sellign for 5 keys and havent sold at all

Downvote

*edit: easily available on scm for cheaper (even when taking full price of keys), normally scm is a lot higher

Well, he does have a 5 key sale that is level 16 from his "buyers" section.

Atm the s. snack attack is still readily available between 9-10usd on the market ([url]http://imgur.com/vpKSRGs[/url] and has been for the past few days) even when taking keys at their full price ~3.6-4 keys this mainly where my downvote comes from. Scm being unaffected by the influence of users constantly trying to price up the snack attack and the anyone can easily just buy from the market for a lot cheaper :S

A better example is the bread box. The price on scm was ~2.1$ but when the suggestion pricing it up to 1 key hit the homepage it's price quickly shot up to ~2.5$ and is now on the decline again

We do not use SCM as proof for prices. These sales at 4-5 keys continue to happen. Along with the fact that there are none available for less than 4 keys anywhere, there is no reason not to accept this price.

I am aware that we dont use scm for proof however the main argument for not using scm was that traditionally sales are a lot higher on the market due to the fact that a lot of users dont trade and just buy what's available.

In this case it's readily available for 9-10usd which is a lot lower than the suggested range, assuming the full price of keys it's like saying i can easily buy this item for ~3.7 keys but bp.tf will incorrectly value it at ~4.5 keys. My original comment from 2 days ago stating that it is cheaper on the market still stands meaning that the "low price" wasnt just a short lived price.

http://steamcommunity.com/market/listings/440/Strange%20Snack%20Attack

The price seems to be steadily rising. 10 SCM dollars is more like 4-5 keys rather than 3.6-4 keys. I am accepting this price.

Standard pricing of the market is best represented by the number of keys you would have to sell on the market to buy the item. By that measure, this is almost exactly right.

Totally not trying to raise his backpack value.

Some solds would be nice.

Owns: 5

Unless you provide legit solds, this seems like manipulation to me.

Neutral for now

~~he haz 5, kill him with teh downvotes!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!~~

idk

wew ... i can only see 1 seller at classified for 4.7 keys ... all others selling (including only 2 pages outpost) at 5 flat. Upvoting until another suggesting 5 flat

A lack of sellers at the current range doesn't necessarily mean the current range is accurate either. For all that we know, people could just be raising their prices a ridiculous amount from the bread box expiring, and could easily drop their prices if 4-5 keys doesn't sell.

That is true. But, we still have to base on current facts, aren't we?

CRISTINEW1 shows buyers at 4, sellers at 5. As we commonly don't use buyers other than to determine quickbuys (that is at 4).

My own findings told me to say 5 flat.

He doesn't have any buyers, he put sellers there for some reason.

yep, I'm saying buyers because he put some, imho, showing demands, and nobody is selling at current range.

I've seen people try this before, suggestions like this don't go through.

Most probably, as people may against the profit he will make if this passes.

I'm upvoting because the suggestion, I think, reflect the current market. I will change my vote, if the market changes ... who knows ... tomorrow, the day after .. ?

If the suggestion is correct it doesnt matter what bp.tf shows he has "already" made profit.

Atm he only has sellers @ 5 keys meaning they arent selling at 5 keys, it's also readily available via scm (currently 10$) which is ~4 keys even when taking keys @ their full price. Traditionally scm is normally the one which is higher.

Your first 5 key buyer ( http://www.tf2outpost.com/trade/21160169 ) is buying because its level 100

Mostly everyone on outpost selling it for 5 keys. Can't completely agree, but the proof's there. upvote

Just sold mine for 5 keys . Upvoted

edit: IT was lvl 89

edit 2: I also got offered 6 keys on the 21th

all "professional" comments and idiocy aside i agree with op SCM NEEDS to be taken into consideration when pricing and as ive seen so few sold below 4 key period let alone seen ANY and i agree with t he range, if you cant value an item correctly based off of monetary which 99.9% of bp.tf users use to purchase third party then it doesnt need to be priced at all on here or its just price manipulation in thier favor not an accurate representation of price, in fact they shot down a ranchero relaxo suggest i had for same reasons when it was first released then not even 8 hours later someone else suggests the same price and its accepted with the same proof. im upvoting, even the classifieds here none are below 5 key open your eyes folks
