Too many issues in the proof, as discussed in the comments (successful sales at current price, numerous poorly bumped unsolds). A drop appears necessary, but suggested range does not work based on the provided proof.

Comments can no longer be left on this suggestion.

Hello everybody, this is my second suggestion but my first proper one, so any helpful tips would be appreciated. If I do something wrong please let me know. Thanks.

Solds:

http://www.tf2outpost.com/trade/23896964 - SOLD

http://www.tf2outpost.com/trade/23906862 Hasn't sold

do you mean it has sold?

The item is still in the seller's inventory

Um im trying to lower the price, doesn't having it in his/her bp mean it has not been sold and that it supports my point?

Then why did you put it as "sold" ?

I ll just put it back into the unsold section to solve this, thanks for your help

http://www.tf2outpost.com/trade/23867951 poorly bumped

http://www.tf2outpost.com/trade/23808212 poorly bumped

http://www.tf2outpost.com/trade/23854417 not bumped at all

http://www.tf2outpost.com/trade/23819990 not bumped at all

http://www.tf2outpost.com/trade/23818848 not bumped at all

A large amounts of your "unsolds" are very poorly or even unbumped at all

Please read this before attempting to suggest. Thanks

http://backpack.tf/help/suggestions

Is there a way to tell if its bumped up properly?

If the suggestion was not bumped for more than 24 hours, it is regarded as poorly bumped.

Doesn't that just mean its young not necessarily poorly unbumped? Also they are all over 24 hours, is there some reasoning behind this?

If so could you explain to me?

The date above the seller's description shows when the trade was created. If the trade was less than a day it was made, then it is considered young.

The date at the top which is over the item trade, that shows when the trade was recently updated/bumped. If the trade hasn't been bumped for over 1 day, then its considered poorly bumped (though imo, 2 days or more is poorly since it shows the seller no longer keeps track of his/her own trade).

alright thanks, so whats the best period of time for a trade to be bumped, 2-4 days?

In my opinion on how I done price drop suggestions:

What's Good:

- Sellers = being +1day created and last bumped for 1 days or less.

- Unsolds = being +3 or 4 days created and last bumped for 1 days or less.

(remember, bumps need to be recent since it shows the trade/seller is still active)

What's bad:

- Trades that has not been updated/bumped for 2 days or more

- Trades that has the bump time and create time the same (like this one http://www.tf2outpost.com/trade/23854417 ). If it was made today, then it's young. Since it was done 6 days ago, then its considered young + unbumped (since it hasn't been bumped once, just made and forgotten).

Alright thanks for the advice, I will do that next time

1st link at 9 ref closed his trade and doesn't look like he's selling it anymore.

2nd link is poorly bumped likewise with the third (73 views in 1 month).

Its probably been like that for a while now, i posted this suggestions a few days ago, things probably would have changed, i can't really do much about it sorry.

may want to re-suggest or close this

Im planning on waiting for a mod to close or accept it, I want to see where this ends up, rather than closing it early

good luck then!

I took a look last night. My biggest concern is that it seems a handful of the 1 key unsolds have since sold, and with the limited number of links for suggested price, it's something that can't be overlooked. Some updated proof is needed here, otherwise I think what's needed is a new low range while mantaining current high range

yes i am aware of that, if this does not pass, i may use some of those solds to raise the price to a key instead of lowering it

http://www.tf2outpost.com/trade/23898695 Unsold

I could probaly do this whole page , but i think you get the point . They're all bumped within last 24 houres or unsold .

http://www.tf2outpost.com/trade/23906862 - totally unsold (sarcasm) if it wasn't sole then he decided to keep

http://www.tf2outpost.com/trade/23896094 - same with this

http://www.tf2outpost.com/trade/23572065 - I say poorly bumped as it is close enough to 1 day

http://www.tf2outpost.com/trade/20743140 - how not poorly bumped?

http://www.tf2outpost.com/trade/23910324 - 100% sold, I talk to the guy on a server all of the time btw

http://www.tf2outpost.com/trade/23898695 - sold

How are you saying that I am wrong. Tons of his proof is also inactive if you took the time to check, they literally were closed by outpost because they were not bumped.

you are aware i posted this a few days ago, maybe telling me this before hand could have been a bit more useful

It was just put on the front page, I don't scour around to help with price suggestions. Besides, if these are inactive now they would've been considered poorly bumped when you made this.

the proof were not as they are now, also u really should check when i posted the suggestion, it was bumped up a few hours ago by mod probably

I did check when you posted this, 5 days ago it says. That means many of these proofs were not bumped for at least 2 days of you posting as they are inactive.

Thats a good thing tho because if it were bumped over 2 days it would eventually become inactive as the suggestion progressed, also when will this suggestion be closed or accepted by a mod?

They weren't bumped, if they are that means that they really aren't selling at that price. But its just that they aren't being bumped.

i think you need solds, not unsolds

No, solds are needed to raise a price.

im just using them to help conclude the range

...wow. I can't say anything bad about this suggestion. Proof is sufficient, upvote.

thanks, i will still try to add more proof if i find any
