Not using this sale as Tiënsto! Is banned on Outpost and "didn't really have much of a chance to sell for full value".

------

Note - offer listed here was retracted:

Even with the Outpost ban, 1180 keys is way closer to 1350 keys than 1920 keys. I feel the high one is more likely the outlier, especially since it was in a bunch of unusuals and that tends to result in well over the standard .9 overpay on super high tier hats.

"polar: on high tier sales, i prefer to include all of them."

Out of the 3 sales, 1350 and 1920 probably represent the hat's value much better than the 1180 sale.

Ah, didn't know that was Polar's stance, sorry.

I do feel that since Tientso's sale was all pure it represents the pure value of the hat better, but you probably have more experience pricing god tiers than me so you're probably right, just figured it was worth bringing up, sorry if I was definitely wrong and wasted your time.

Edit: Wow, random dislikes going all around here. No need for that, everyone has some pretty good points.

I had a similar thought, that 1180 is way closer to 1350. However, that seemed low, so I asked polar.

Out of the 3 sales, it's probably best to eliminate the first.

Nick messed up big time with this sale and even he realizes it , but too late. Anyway all i would like to bring to notice is that the current owner apparently has rejected " 600 keys + 1100 keys in PayPal @ $1.80 USD ~ 1,700keys / 283.33 buds (buds being 6 keys each)" already + Nick clearly rejected much better offers than that. So imo the last sale seems more like an outlier . "if i quote Nick" this was something that was done evaluating the amount of buds way higher cash wise then they are currently. Anyhow just a thought rest up to the mods.

As I mentioned in the proof, the offerer retracted his offer.

If there was just one sale at 193 buds, the argument of it being low could be made. However, there is another sale even lower than the low end of this suggestion. This is a lot of support for the low end.

If offers have been made, then I encourage sellers to post them here.

ahh i missed it and the lower sale you are referring to was a quicksell not a regular sale so that's there as well. Sad though such a god tier loosing value due to nonsensical trades.

I am the current owner of a Burning Flames Crone's Dome, so you can dislike that I am giving my opinion if you wish, however I do not think that the offer I rejected should be taken so lightly as non-evidence -- http://imgur.com/5hBn2La

I will also state that the user said he would do this deal in three separate occassions

1. He offered it on the Vatican Unusual Server, which I declined almost immediately.

2. I did a quick background check of the user, then asked if it was still valid around 15-20 minutes later; he said it was.

3. I then added him to document the offer, and he gave me his price once again. I later said I wanted a lot more then his offer, and so he retracted it.

Thanks for reading I hope this helps people gain some perspective on the Crone's, especially what it will take to obtain it from me or others who own one.

Considering how people perceive bud prices to be, I bought this from him thinking he was quickselling it because people are thinking the worst from buds.
