Caps at 2500 key buyout https://bot.tf/stats/listings/Y79DJGDW
I hate situations like this, his buyout was 2000 for like a year, then some dude with too much money comes and overpays over the new buyout
Makes the whole concept of buyout capping seem pointless to me
yeah imo it shouldn't be capped or atleast it should have a price range. starting from b/o to the total sale price. this always happens with marketplace sales. I mean why those sales are capped and pure sales aren't
Honestly I don’t get why marketplace sales have to be capped... what’s more pure than real money? No matter how many times I cry about it and a moderator explains it to me, it still doesn’t make sense to me.
I get the point Payback makes with buyout at x for a long time then they overpay the higher buyout (like with recent suggestion Starstorm Corona Australis). But the Starstorm Corona situation (linked below) didn’t get resolved with a real reason. The solution was the most recent buyout and not the older but lower buyout, but in Bonzo Casemaker, a buyout from three months prior (while having no buyout in between) was accepted without question.

there should be some kind of consistency to this - especially when one of the most fundamental aspects of trading in 2020 are collectors who will pay a lot for items, caps are more useful than ever
How so? Marketplace sales get capped cause the buyout is how much the seller was looking to get out of selling the hat. Why mp.tf sales are almost always above buyout is cause of fees.
It all comes down to (the price), supply and demand.
I mean I was offered this same hat for roughly 2100 in mixed only a few days ago. Don't know how this affects the price suggestion but it's certainly an interesting case.
Depends on how you value the 2100 mixed, if all the items are in-date etc.
Half in date and the others based on b/o's
Meh
Yes, I hate when that happens...
Trading on the highest tier hats has always been a game of luck and timing. Has happened to me loads of time when I was an active trader. I'd trade a hat after months on the market only for the price to spike a short while later because sellers disappeared.
We report sales at a snapshot in time. There's nothing "accurate" about it. Traders see the data presented and can make the decision for themselves about how much a hat is worth to them.
