I put lots of work into this, don't just click a vote before reading (unless it's a check, that would be nice)

Hello!

I used to own one of these bad boys, and it annoyed the crap out of me trying to sell it. An unusual without a price and a 3rd gen effect is not exactly a popular hat. But, in the end it was sold for $69 on the market ($60 for me, $9 for Valve and Steam), equal to 24 keys (since I used that money to buy 24 keys). Granted, I had also put a strangifier on my unusual, which rose its price. Old trade thread: http://www.tf2outpost.com/trade/19540446#latest

Now, since the last time I checked, Kill-A-Watt Big Chiefs have not been on outpost as much. This is the only one I could find: http://www.tf2outpost.com/trade/19416778 This is proof he has had it for at least 4 months http://www.tf2outpost.com/trade/18648269

Obviously overpriced at 2 buds, had it for probably more than 4 months :P Well, at least I can congragulate him for unboxing it himself.

Next guy: http://www.convictgaming.com/viewtopic.php?f=755&t=34421 Here he is showcasing his Unusual Kill-A-Watt Big Chief, saying he prices it at $79 or 2.3 buds. And he says it's 20% off! XD Ok, so the last record he had of selling this on Outpost is here: http://www.tf2outpost.com/trade/14735074 I cannot find any record of him having sold it already except for the fact that it is no longer in his backpack: http://steamcommunity.com/id/JustAnHonestTrader/inventory/ Now, he may have brokered it (given it to someone to sell it for him and give him some of the pure) and doesn't have it at the moment, but I have no proof of that. It may be out there or it may not be. When did he sell it? Did he sell it? No idea, but it's most likely still out there because of its bogus price, the fact he couldn't sell it in the 3 months his trade was open and that on the first link I gave you of this guy was posted in late December of 2013 (look in the bottom right corner of the showcase)

Well, this is old. First guy ever to sell it: http://www.tf2outpost.com/trade/12965050 Just thought it would be cool to post. Sold for 3 buds due to the hype about new unusual effects. This was the last time th ehat was ever heard from on Outpost http://www.tf2outpost.com/trade/15126516 , apparently sold for 2.2 buds. The current holder http://www.tf2outpost.com/backpack/76561198050468373 is not trying to sell it, the thing is just sitting in his backpack, either because he likes it or it's just too much of a pain in the ass to sell.

http://www.tf2outpost.com/trade/20289323 This guy was selling for 23 keys. Only one near the new price so far, but the trade was expired due to inactivity :/ This probably would have sold, had the trade not expired.

Any other traces of the unusual that have proof have not been revealed to me. Please see it you pute a nice little check next to this.

Also I have been asked, why the 20 keys in the range? That was a typo, meant to put 23! Sorry guys, that's one thing I can't edit, if need be I'll re-open this suggestion if it doesn't pass.
