I may sound silly when I ask this but what does "Better used" actually mean?
The sale makes more sense to use on the item in question
In this situation, the heart flamenco added 60 keys to the sunbeams flamenco
60 keys alone is more than half of the heart flamenco's price
so theoretically, if this heart flamenco is 77 keys and i use it to update the sunbeams flamenco, the sunbeams flamenco can be updated
but lets say i try to use the sunbeams flamenco's price to price this (taking sunbeams flamenco at 130 outdated just as example)
the value of the heart flamenco would be 130 minus 60 keys, effectively giving this a value of 70
but using a bulk trade like this isn't a good representation of the item's value, the heart flamenco in this situation takes up like 55% value of the trade
all of this considered, this trade is better used to price the sunbeams flamenco because it isnt appropriate to use it vice versa
this kind of situation is normally applied to bulk trades or situations where the other item in question has less sales
for example, lets say you are pricing nebula translator which probably has 200 sales
one of the trades you find is RandomOutdatedHalloweenUnusualX, and that hat has two sales total: lets say one for 170 keys and one is the nebula translator
instead of adding the price point of RandomOutdatedHalloweenUnusualX to the large number of nebula translator sales, the sale for the nebula translator is "better used there", as in its better to give RandomOutdatedHalloweenUnusualX a price point of 170 and the nebula translator, to give it a range
Thanks for the explanation, I've heard that term a few times and didn't really get it
so what i can make out, it means that for this item that sale is considered bulk and not the best representation for this item, but when this price gets updated you can use that trade to price the Sunbeams, right?
yes, the sale is better evaluated on the sunbeams flamenco instead for the reason that its bulk-ish for the heart flamenco
I checked the Sunbeams and there's a usable Marketplace.tf sale you can include in it https://marketplace.tf/items/tf2/627;5;u17 I didn't find any other sales apart from the mp one and the one you provided
i'm not gonna do the sunbeams flamenco suggestion, feel free to pick it up
alright thx. just noticed there are some sales in the hidden history too (the one in your compares was probably traded to a private inventory and doesn't appear in premium histories)
