Suggestion: Potion Explosion Taunt: Soldier's Requiem at 3.5–3.55 keys

Untraceable. Was later bought off of STN and listed on marketplace, but we can’t see who bought it, so we can’t see what it sold for. Thanks marketplace.

Sales at:

3.55

The 3.55 key sale occurred when keys were ~54.33 ref. With them being a little more now, the listing for the exact same price in keys/metal is now a little closer to 3.5, enough to round down. While it’s normally bad to use a seller as a low end, especially when setting a price with a single sale, I think it should be fine to do this here.

Taking 3.5-3.55 keys.

I still think this isn't going to work. The underlying issue is that these sellers can (and will) list for a lower price if they remain unsold, which we know is common practice with qsstore listings, and is going to render your point moot. If we leave this up for a few weeks just to see what happens, we'll either have a new sale, or an unsold at a lower price that would indicate that this would need to stay unpriced.

I think the more ideal thing to do would be to do some research onto the untraceable sales and see if you can potentially get a wider range after having contacted the buyers/sellers for screenshot evidence.

I will oblige, but I can't say I agree with the idea that a price can be invalid because cheaper sellers "might" appear. I typically never see qsstore bots lower their prices unless a cheaper competitor appears (hence why we see them owning the same taunts for many years), which is always going to be a possibility with these suggestions. Matter of fact, I've only really ever seen STN or maybe the Dolphin bots lower their prices unprompted.

If we were to use the point that qsstore does small discounts for some users (don't quote me on that, I'm not sure I'm 100% correct here), then I'd agree there. For what it's worth, keys have been selling for slightly less lately, which has caused the seller to barely round back up to 3.55 keys.

I can agree with getting a wider range using bot dumps, as we have 3 of them in the untraceable sales section, but I have a bit of a personal rule against sending friend requests to inexperienced traders. I don't necessarily want to make them comfortable with accepting requests from decent-sized backpacks, especially considering I have an impersonator warning on my bp profile.

I'll close this on the premise of needing a low end due to 3 bot dumps, and only having 1 sale that isn't a bot dump.
