After double-checking the mini policy for gifted hats, I am reopening this suggestion with the same data from my last suggestion.
According to polar's empirical data on gifted hats, a set percentage can be taken off that correlates with his research, as seen here:
http://forums.backpack.tf/index.php?/topic/6033-new-unusual-price-suggestion-guide-the-cheat-sheet/
The last suggestion had the Gifted DBD Rifleman priced at half value, which isn't quite accurate. 60% value is a better amount (30% for Gifted, 10% for Overpay), and it dropped the price average of the second sale by .2 buds. But that's okay. The last suggestion had an astounding 92.3% acceptance rate when it was closed, so I expect this will be similar.
Here is my proof:
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
Sale 1
Amaranthine Well-Rounded Rifleman sold for 35 pure keys.
Total = 35 / 12 = 2.916 Buds, rounded to 2.9 Buds.
Buyer's Backpack Before: http://backpack.tf/profiles/76561198102317014?time=1424419200
Buyer's Backpack After: http://backpack.tf/profiles/76561198102317014?time=1424505600
Seller's Backpack Before: http://backpack.tf/profiles/76561198107740754?time=1424419200
Seller's Backpack After: http://backpack.tf/profiles/76561198107740754?time=1424505600
At the bottom of the seller's backpack, you can clearly see where the 35 keys all entered the inventory. Checked the history of each and they all came from the same person, alf.

Sale 2
A Gifted Disco Beat Down Well-Rounded Rifleman (2.75 Buds normally, docked to 60% total value, 30% for gifted and 10% for overpay), Amaranthine Well-Rounded Rifleman, and 20 Pure Keys for a Darkblaze Well-Rounded Rifleman (5.4 Buds).
Total = (1.6 Buds) + (1.6 Buds) + X = 5.4 Buds.
5.4 - 1.6 - 1.6 = 2.2 Buds.

After: http://backpack.tf/profiles/76561198044880774?time=1420444800
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
Sale 3
(Outlier)
Haunted Ghosts Master's Yellow Belt (6 Buds) + Orb. Fire Old Guadalajara (1.1 Buds) for the Amaranthine Well-Rounded Rifleman
Total = 7.1 Buds * .9 (Overpay) = 6.39 Buds, rounded to 6.4 Buds
Before: http://backpack.tf/profiles/76561198044880774?time=1415174400
After: http://backpack.tf/profiles/76561198044880774?time=1416729600
(Since this sale is an outlier, I'm not bothering with mini information.)

Now that the gifted amount has been correctly applied, this price is rock solid.
Once again, if an error has been made in my calculations, kindly let me know and I can fix and resubmit the price suggestion. Thanks a ton you guys!
I'd also like to thank the users alf and d0 for their responses to my last suggestion. Without you, it'd still be incorrectly priced at the 2.4-2.9 range. This is much better.
You need to make a mini, not 60% value.
Sorry, but that's incorrect. If you check at the top of my post, Polar explained it in detail why gifted can take a set value off. Also to clarify, it wasn't 60% for gifted, but 70% for gifted and 10% for overpay. Not that it matters much, I can use the FULL amount if you really want me to, but the higher that DBD Rifleman prices in that sale, the lower the Amaranthine Rifleman falls.
I hope you understand that correlation, yes? I mean, a higher priced Amaranthine Rifleman would be in your best interest, wouldn't it? Considering you own one?
Tell you what. If you'd like to REALLY get accurate and not take assumptions, perhaps you could contact the two people involved in that sale and find out what THEY valued the DBD Rifleman at? That would probably be as clairvoyant as we can get. But unless that happens, we're just going to stick to acceptable approximations.
I feel sorry for you to be really honest, but if I was really to give my opinion here, I'd probably get a warn and a ban, so, yes, congrats for your amazing suggestion!
Are you going to actually contribute something, or are you just going to keep trying to instigate?
Sold mine for duped scorching glove.

Excellent data. Thank you for sharing. I'll calculate the final value of your sale and factor it in to the final suggestion.
BRB, closing and fixing.
