First (and only) Pricing was 4 months ago.
I've had one of the two Unusual Schaden Mega-Strikes on Market for the past two months or so. The other one that I've seen is here: http://www.tf2outpost.com/user/378433 and still in his BP. He wanted ~7 buds or so, but was banned for trading with scammer alt. Safe to say that we won't see any proof of this taunt being sold when it does leave his BP on Outpost.
I just sold mine for 60 keys. I declined an offer of 5 buds when buds were ~12 keys (http://www.tf2outpost.com/trade/24525644 look for the three comments in the middle right above the banned phisher post; he offered 5 buds pure to me).
Proof of sale:
(lemme upload it 1 sec)http://imgur.com/IWr51TJTherefore, it seems like 60 keys seems like a reasonable price based on one sale and one offer given that there haven't been any other sales that I have seen recently (were any of you guys keeping tabs?), and there are no others on market.
Please convert and resubmit this price in buds. I will leave this up for 24 hours so that you can close it yourself.
Why buds though? Keys is more accurate, with buds falling and 60 keys being the two non-outlier sales (one at pure 60, other at 5 buds * 12 keys = 60 at time of sale according to bp.tf prices). It reflects the actual price better.
There was a sale here for 5 buds as well:

A range is needed.
5 Buds two weeks ago = 60 keys (price on BP.TF was still 12 Keys, although true value might have been 11.5 keys. Still, that's 57.5 ~= 58 keys, close enough to 60 keys IMO and the range is unnecessary).
What do you think the range should be then? 5-6 buds? I feel that with Buds changing VERY heavily right now, pricing it in keys is probably the best way to maintain "true value" (especially since Buds are nearing a steady 10k price now).
60 keys is close to 5.5 buds, so 5-5.5 buds. There's also a very recent sale I included below at 4 buds which may or may not be an outlier.
60 keys is easily just under 6 buds right now (if not 6 flat), although the BP.TF Pricing isn't updated to reflect that. It's definitely closer to 6 buds than 5.5 buds, but that's a small point of arguing--the two sales are within 0.2 buds of each other or approximately 2 keys within each other; and a range would be something very small that it's not really worth it to change. 58-60 keys (the bottom one being a probable outlier) isn't that much different from 60 flat.
Plus, pure key pricing is probably more accurate and equal, since 5 buds when they were bp.tf listed 12k each = 60 keys, I sold for 60k, so 60 seems fine.
That's just my thoughts, if a mod disagrees and wants something like 5-5.5 or 5-6 buds, I can resuggest.

This one was sold instantly when it became tradeable for 45 keys (very bottom post). Could be classified as a slight quicksell (for now) as there are more higher sales than lower ones, plus it was sold for pure instantly within 1 week (technically 1 day since it became tradeable on the day it was sold).
I assume you're finding these sales with BP.TF Premium, I don't have that so I don't know other sales.
The 45 key offer at the bottom isn't the buyer. :P They had it up for a week to collect offers so it's not exactly a quicksell, but it's fairly lower than the other 2 sales so it could be called an outlier.
