Apparently this is my first price suggestion, so let's get this startin'!!!

1 of 1 unusual, really low history, just asking to be suggested.

I bought it for a lvl 69 non-duped short history GE Scotch Bonnet (at least 2.2 buds, see below) + 1 bud pure

proof - http://imgur.com/BXprGQW

GE Bonnet bp.tf price (recently updated: 15 days old) - http://backpack.tf/stats/Unusual/Scotch%20Bonnet/Tradable/Craftable/9

No need for mini on that one, but nevertheless, the GE Bonnet was bought for a Orb. Fire Cowl + 8 keys pure

proof - http://imgur.com/PxmKrfu

(note: not sure on how do I show that the "Late Registration" hat was a Orb Fire Cowl, if anyone can enlight me, I would appreciate it)

Cowl: ~2*0.9 = 1.8 buds

1.8 buds = 30.6 keys (rounding down to 30)

Whole offer: 38 keys = 2.235 buds, rounding to 2.2 buds, matching the bp.tf range

Mini on Cowl (outdated price):

http://puu.sh/bGzMX/23464cfafb.png - Sold for a Steaming Noble (~1.5 buds) + HUGE amount of sweets (around 6-9 keys, depending on craftability and etc.)

Not sure if it matters, but since I don't want to be accused of PRICE MANIPULATION (OMG) the new owner of the Bonnet got a Blizzard Storm Noble offer (duped), worth ~2 buds after applying overpay (~2.3*0.9 = ~2.07, rounding to 2), which then he declined (bringing credibility to my Cowl + 8 key offer on it).

Noble bp.tf price - http://backpack.tf/stats/Unusual/Noble%20Amassment%20of%20Hats/Tradable/Craftable/30

Any more proof/counter-proof or other type of suggestions, are all welcome!

Happy Trading!

A lot of this is unnecessary, the GE Bonnet's price is in date, so you don't need to prove that price.

You need to wait a month before making this suggestion and / or confirm you're not reselling.

IF you're not reselling within a month, this does look an alright suggestion, nice one :3

Thanks for the info, wasn't aware of the 1 month rule, and I just felt like I needed to add the pricing for the Bonnet since it's range is quite large, and with only one sell/sold I can't suggest a range for this one (right?). So what shall I do now, close and wait for that time?

You're right that you can't suggest a range.

As I stated, if you intend to keep this unusual, because it's 1 of 1, and there's none on the market, you only need this one sale. This suggestion would be fine.

If you intend to resell, you would need to close this, see if it resells within a month, then resuggest using both sales.

Glad I could help :3

there were 4 sales of the hat according to the item's history the last 3 months, 1 sale isn't enough

Oh, i see, so if I end up reselling before the time (which most likely won't happen, specialy cuz it's a 3rd gen hat unpriced and I grew fond of it :D) I should need to do a re-suggestion with the "solds" (which will eventualy then give the hat a range). Thank you very much for the help!

"Any hat can be priced based on a single sale if ALL these criteria are met:

- There are no other recent sales in the last 3 months

- The effect is not a summer 2013 effect. (robo, 2013 halloween effects can be used as they are often rarely traded and rarely unboxed)

- The hat went to a collector or person who intends to keep the hat. A collector can be identified by looking at the person's trade history, item history of similar unusuals in the backpack OR if the owner has not resold the hat 1 month after the sale occurred."

There were 4 sales the last 3 months according to the hat's history [url]http://www.tf2outpost.com/item/440,2984590536,30334,5[/url].

Now, find them

If I eventualy find those I need to change this to a ranged suggestion (since it would be too much of a coincidence selling/buying this hat for this same price in all those trades), which can happen after the first pricing of this hat is accepted/rejected, since it never had a price to begin with (any VALID and up-to-date trade would do it). Am I wrong?

Needs 2 sales if you're intending on reselling it. Also this sale would be at around 2.2 since the bonnet is already updated.

Offtopic: You might want to appeal that outpost ban since you might've been hijacked

''I bought it for a lvl 69 non-duped short history GE Scotch Bonnet (at least 2.2 buds, see below) + 1 bud pure''

So, 3.2.

Ah, my bad. Read that sale wrongly.

It took me around 2 months to get steam support to get my acc back (got phished in tf2op, and the phisher apparently used my acc to hijack others, or so the tf2op claimed), once I sent the proof of the hijacking (support ticket and all that) the ban appeal was alrdy closed, so I take it there is no turning back now... It's quite the bummer not being able to trade there no more, but I think I tried all the valid options to get my "outpost respect" back :/

You could also try contacting the admin that banned you directly, it's always worth a shot since you have nothing to lose.

*facepalm* Never actualy thought of that...

http://www.tf2outpost.com/trade/22605681 Offered + SF 'Nade (~0.3) for Peace Sign Trophy Belt (2.3)

No overpay, 2.3 - 0.3 = 2

http://www.tf2outpost.com/item/440,2971591630,53,5

http://www.tf2outpost.com/trade/22256028 Sold for C9 Brown Bomber (7.5) + Nuts Brainiac (~3.8)

11.3 * 0.9 = 10.17 (rounding to 10.2)

Histories:

I don't know... I feel like both the other sales are outliers based on offers. This could still be alright... wait to see what the mods think.

4th sale : [url]http://www.tf2outpost.com/trade/22203658[/url] B/O 3 buds - dunno for what it sold

The 10.2 buds sale is clearly the outlier, ~~not sure about the 2 buds one, maybe a 2-3.2 range?~~

In my opinion 3.2 Seems to be the closest here, unless we can find what the 4th one actually sold for.

Or we can wait until ch1lly resells it

Yup, if I eventualy get an offer on it/sell it, I will re-suggest for sure, but not liking all these other solds... quite off the 3.2 bud mark

The 3 bud B/O sold in less than a day, it's an invalid quicksell.

But based on that, 2 is definitely an outlier.

Alright then ;)

Thank you for the help again! I feel like you guys are working on my suggestion more than I am :(

it's alright, don't worry about it;

backpack.tf is a community, and we treat suggestions as such :3

Oh wow, never actualy thought of seeing this hat being sold for 10 buds... I dunno if both are outliers though, since I don't have a lot of "near to my price" boughts/solds, but thank ya for those.

I forwarded this to Garry who has re-opened your appeal on outpost and has asked you to repost your screenshots - proof of the hijacking, etc. :D

As for this suggestion, it doesn't meet the criteria of pricing based on one sale. Feel free to resuggest once one full month has elapsed from the time of the trade - October 18. Or resuggest with a range if you sell it before then.

Cheers
