On your first sale, 70 keys is very inaccurate. Moreover B/O was set at 50 keys pure, offer can't exceed that

(And please, be kind, read the rules http://forums.backpack.tf/index.php?/topic/6033-guide-for-unusual-price-suggestions/ , not about this suggestion especially, but about all the other ones you made, it seems you don't listen to all the advice people gave you)

I decided to quicksell to get something else, B/o was 50 pure for the span of a day or two, I was asking 55-60 for the Merry for some time before that.

why does my comment have -2 score?

Where does the price for pro aussie sniper come from?

its pro ks, and i talked to the seller

The seller doesn't set the price for all pro killstreak australiums :P

It simply is not possible to dig up listings from that time period for Pro KS Aus Sniper rifles to prove definitively they were going for that. I had traded an Spec KS Aus RL (60 key at the time) for the sniper and a few keys.

It is perfectly possible...

I'm not savvy on how to pull up listings from Feb/March, but I just gave the suggestor image proof of the pro ks sniper and a bmoc being bought with an Spec KS Aus RL (no value added for the spec ks), when Aus RL was priced at 60 keys.

you dont need values for feb/march. its about the current price. I always use the SCM as a reference for spec/pro kses, and then check if there's BOs below them on outpost

Australiums have changed in price since then, as that's when the RL-Sniper and the Sniper-Merry trade were completed. Australiums were a fair bit more at the time.

Yes, but the indication you're trying to give is for a current value. just like you use updated prices for unusuals, you use updated values from other items. Buds are an exception because they were formal currency at the time, but are no longer so. I guess using aussie prices from back then is not wrong, but using the current prices is more accurate and they are far easier to get

the thing about the Australiums is they were priced in keys back then, and had been for a bit already, so they don't have the issue unusuals do with buds and previous pricing before the changes. i feel the fact this hat is unpriced lends itself to that well also, as australiums tend to have much firmer prices than unusuals.

also, its important to note their previous price, as australiums took a price drop as a whole largely about the same time a few months ago, and their prices rapidly declined for a short time, whereas they had quite firm longterm prices before then, and the current prices are lower due to a larger portion of them on the market currently which fueled their drops. so just, australiums before the drop were a heartier value than today, which should be reflected upon.

I personally dont see how them being priced in keys is relevant here. If they were priced in buds before, they should just have been converted to keys at the key-bud rate at the time of pricing.

Regardless of the above: if the prices of aussies back then is not representative for their value nowadays, that indicates the price given is more inaccurate for the current pricing. Note that we're trying to find out what they can currently sell for. If the hat can sell for an aussie sniper, in current values that means it can sell for a current value of 36 (this is just an example).

Anyway, as said above, I dont think using former aussie prices is wrong, I just think its more accurate to reflect on their current prices. Additionally, the initial fact was that it would be "impossible to dig up values to show what they went for at that time". My main point is that you dont need those values, as you can use their current values.

I was selling the Pro KS Aus Sniper for 55 keys, and that was the going rate (as in, they started at 55 and worked up)for them at the time.

Ok but you could just be making that up, in a suggestion you have to show proof

B/o on the first sale is indeed 50. Valuing it at 68 is going to be a problem
