    Looks good to me, SirDapper. Upvote.

      The SS + Voices Brawling Buccaneer sold for 30 keys pure on 12/26/2023, less than four months ago. Sure, it may be outdated, but it is definitely a better representation of the value of a double-spelled item versus the description of a bot buy order. These spell quickbuyers will also denote specific prices for combinations of spells on a given item, they just cannot list every possible combination in one listing. If you were to add some of these buyers, I am sure that they would have given you a more realistic "buy-order" price versus the same blanket three-key evaluation that is one also given to single-spelled examples. I know that I would easily pay 10+ keys to quickbuy any double-spelled Brawling Buccaneer.


      You also did not provide proof for the three-key buy order - it just says using B/Os. I know that Gladiator.tf is down so you cannot grab snapshots of classified listings, but a screenshot would still be beneficial, especially moving forward where sell/buy orders can have a lot more impact on the suggested price.


      If you would have rounded your suggested price of 3085 to 3100, as recommended in the Unusual Price Suggestion Rules, then this would probably be fine as is. Using the liberal value of 30 keys for the Brawling Buccaneer, as opposed to the conservative value of 3 keys, would get you a price of 3115, which also rounds to 3100. This just proves that rounding is usually a good idea, especially when several items / minis are present.


      This may seem pedantic, but it is always better to be thorough on suggestions for hats of this tier. You could also go ahead and price the Scorching Flames Soldier's Stash if you'd like - that is a another cool hat to get a suggestion in on. It was a clean sale.
