This suggestion was marked as bad evidence and closed Tue, 07 Apr 15 22:50:52 +0000 by A Delicious Cashew™.

There should always be enough evidence to back up the new proposed value. However, it appears that the evidence is not strong enough, or cherry-picked in a way that does not represent the actual market value of the item. Therefore, this suggestion has been closed.

You're a yellow belt, you should know classifieds are supporting proof.

You have no proof from Outpost for your low end of the range.

Do you? Classifieds are only support, not main proof.

who even use outpost for anything?

classifieds are so faster.

why my last proff has same amount of links and got instantly closed? WUT?

I'm going to assume "suggestion" because I don't know what "proff" is

to answer your first question (I feel that the 2nd question isn't answerable...), you actually had less links, and the mods can't be everywhere at once to insta-close things. they're people too :u (or maybe a bucket or a bear). but your suggestion was closed 'cause you didn't have enough proof. buds are a very commonly traded item and thus a person suggesting a price change for buds would need a lot of links. see past accepted buds suggestions for an idea.

This isn't really aimed at you but really at this useless community. Why do you guys suggest lower values for Buds, back this up with Yes votes then cry about Buds going down. Then, attempt to bring back the Buds back up, only to support their drop the next day. Can we not just let the Bud die instead of trying to resurrect it every time its about to go?

Wow! The most sensible comment. I totally agree. The market brought them down for a reason. People are trying to force an item to act as a bundle for keys.

The only people crying about buds going down and keys going up are people who:

A) Are greedy jerks who are losing/missing out on profit

B) Care about their backpack value

C) Do not understand simple economics

I personally do not view them as members of the backpack.tf community due to their immature and illogical thinking and stances on situations they do not understand. If these people could learn what an economy is, how it works, and how it applies to TF2, then maybe they would understand why buds drop, keys rise, and their backpack value is arbitrary.

Close this and come back with more proof. People might actually WANT TO MAKE A REAL suggestion at this range and you're hogging it.

I can't wait until this gets closed by a mod.

Need solds and classifieds are support.

Pretty sure you need solds if your raising the price, not lowering it

Oh, sorry, I thought you were raising it. But you can't use classifieds to lower. Only to support.

i know it is right but copy/paste more evidence then i will upvote.i didn't voted yet. quick! before it gets closed

Range reflects the market price imho but your proof doesn't. You need solds at both high end and low end.

Sellers and unsolds, not solds.

My bad lol thought he was raising price.

Even the autobumps are down to 7 keys and falling. Range seems pretty good.

1 bazaar trade to support the low end? Not much to rely on.

one horribly bumped trade from bazaartf at low end isn't very good...

Correct Range; Terrible Proof . Downvote !

http://www.tf2outpost.com/trade/25553320 6key+10 ref

a few examples between 6-7 keys

This is bullshit whos idea was this. Why would you ever lower the price of buds so much?

Standard backpack.tf. Report price using outpost trades. Outpost traders lowers prices to undercut new price. Use new outpost trades to set even lower prices. Vicious circle. Eventually every price will reach a lowest price that can not go lower.

Atleast you understand that! Its all bullshit! Its not even a vicious circle anymore... Its a fucking dead line

thanks for sharing, now keep comments related to the suggestion thanks

classifieds should only be used as support proof

you trying you kill buds even more xD

Well I'd give it a upvote but still not near enough classifed isn't enough

good price bad proof down vote

come back with more proof then ill give it a upvote :)

he is not trying to kill buds he is trying to price them according what ppl buy them for

here you go http://steamcommunity.com/market/listings/440/Earbuds 7 keys should not be in the range today for buds.maybe tommorow but not for today.

It says on the rules market isn't proof................................

traders are adjusting their prices to market so yeah.thats all about that rule there is.

(A full summary of this. Some of the links could've been provided already in this suggestion.)

Seems like 7 cannot sell at all anymore. I'm finding many of these 7 trades closing and this is within' the last 12 hours.

Maybe if some certain people would stop hoarding the buds and then try to inflate a broken balloon, buds could cease to exist as a currency finally.

Just to let you know you said this trade was selling for 5 keys 7 ref each - http://www.tf2outpost.com/trade/25619521 But he is selling 5 buds, each bud for 7 keys.

That's why the trade looked a bit funny. Still, those five haven't sold.

Not enough proof.

http://www.tf2outpost.com/trade/25618907

some more in your range.

As much proof as there is, isn't Cooldown still in effect?

Buds are discontinued as a currency, according to the higher ups.
