https://backpack.tf/profiles/76561198057747574#!/compare/1573257600/1573344000 bulkish sale for scorching mohawk, no mini on GE woolen


162 resold for 103 so normally wouldn't do this, but forced to take 103-162 (132.5) for mini here. outdated sales have supported this range and considering this is 12.5% of the sale, it shouldn't be too much of an issue and this is way better than current so

this was listed at $2000 for a few days, and this sold for almost full pure. pure b/o shouldn't be an issue here.


TAKING 1100 (1093)


My reasoning from last sugg:

"The way I see it here, the user's buyout was $2000 - which he was willing to do lower in pure.

Although there were two sales here, only one really matters.

You can see here that he offered the original owner all these hats and was declined, and this was FAR over the user's buyout at the time (by ~500-1000k).

The fact that the og owner was willing to take less his buyout on almost full pure instead of far over his buyout in all hats should tell you what the value of this item should be.

It also helps the case here that most of the items in that sale aren't able to be suggested on their own, so I couldn't use the sale even if I wanted to."

    One of the best hats in game, congrats to new owner and easy upvote.

      Still think this should be put on hold till the sniper and rocket has sold, since this is basically 1/3 of what i paid (based on offers on the mohawk, boneyard and shell shocker). Regardless if i offered bear too fact is "he isn't a trader" by his own words, he only took vikings offer because he wanted a "easy" deal. This hat will NEVER sell again as I am making it untradeble when the time comes. So I'd like it to be priced by the last 2 sales it'll ever see rather than just 1

            Only one matters

              I know you got beef with me j58, but even you should know this is crap. It's a reason EVERYONE ELSE I've asked told me to wait for the rocket and sniper to sell

      Can confirm the things ewja said etc. This should not be the pricing for the hat as i merely accepted Viking as a middleman to make things quick and easy. I wanted some quick cash and a deal that was pretty good, i was also aware of who the hat was going to which is why i let it go(the guy was highly motivated). A day or 2 later i realized that ewja put a bounty on the hat XD. And like he said, im not a trader i don't trade for the purpose of maximizing profit i just go after items i like.

        He offered you the same items he offered Viking, correct?

          I honestly payed no attention to the items offered as i had no interest in any of them, i assume it was similar. Like i said im no trader so i only really know the value of items i seek.

            This sorta reinforces what I said earlier


            He offered you what he was willing to pay in items, but you would have taken a much lower amount in pure.

            Hats on the site cap at a user's buyout (what they would take in pure)


            So if I paid 2000 keys in items for a hat and the seller would have taken 1600 in pure and there's visible documentation oft hat, then the price is 1600


            in this situation it's clear that you would have taken much lower than the buyer ended up paying (1100)

            hence me pricing this at 1100

              mmm generally i suppose but this was a limited time thing. I put it up on marketplace and said to myself if it doesn't sell in a couple of days im keeping it. Luckily for ewja he noticed at some point and got in right on time. Outside of this short period though my price would have been higher, probably wouldn't have sold it at all.

      I remember someone was ready to buy it for duped btc-400 keys, so this is indeed an epic hat

        The relevant rationale here is commented on the other suggestion, and confirmed here by the other party involved.


        Despite the fact that it has been traded twice, the situation here is basically one single middlemanned sale, where Viking simply provided the necessary pure: Ewja offered the items on the buyout and was rejected, and Viking stepped in to provide the buyout in order to take the original offer. Another way of interpreting the events is that Viking essentially bought all that stuff from the other exchange with the keys + norse.


        Regardless of which of both interpretations you use here, I believe capping this sale at its original seller's buyout is the right way to go here, given that both the seller and the middleman confirm that this is the way the deal went down.
