I got a crate N°1 while I was playing so I decided to open it. I put 5 dollars in my account and bought a key. The crate had a pink paint can. Nothing incredible. 20 minutes later I got a drop: The Ze goggles. I found it very rare to have a hat as a drop.
The next day I got another drop, a crate N°2, I bought another key and got the new soldier's rocket launcher. Some hours later I was playing TF2 when I got another drop: Safe'N'Sound.
So, I think that if you buy something in the store, it can influence your next drop.
You know the drop system is designed to drop every few hours, right?
I dont want to fuel any conspiracy theories, But I also received Ze Goggles shortly after purchasing a key and opening a crate.
After opening another crate, I also got The Towering Pillar of hats.

Yes, I know, but it usually doesn't drop hats, and 2 hats in 2 days is too much luck

You may just be ridiculously lucky.
I buyed a camera beard and a rocket jumper,and I didn't get any hats the next hours,so I think that this only works with keys

This might just be a coincidence, we can't just assume buying keys automatically gets you a hat, that defeats the purpose of crates.
I'm putting it down to luck, but I wouldn't be surprised if buying from the store did affect your drops. I've also noticed that when I bought keys, I got two drops in a single drop on my next drop, or at least after my next drop. I've purchased 4 times from the store, and I've received 4(I think) double drops.
brb buying lots of keys and crates
I bought a key for my crate and got no hats afterwards. You just got lucky.
Wow, I also bought a key recently, few days later I find Pyro's Beanie.
I unlocked 7 crates all together yesterday, where are my 7 hats.
So doesn't that mean Sift should have hundreds of hat drops incoming?
I opened 3 crates.
Got 3 fucking Scottish Resistances.
Got shit drops for the next 2 days.
Your theory is now disproved.

So that was his grand scheme!

-snip wrong thread-
Wrong thread nano.
I bought a few weps in the store, then later I opened 3 s2 crates and got 2 sombreros and a chieftan..

If you are not lying, then the store DOES influence in drops, since when do people find items when their drop caps have been reached?(excluding event items)
I never said that buying a key make your next drop a hat, I said that it can influence your drop. It can't be a coincidence that a lot of people get a hat after buying a key.
7:21 PM - oh: lol i spent 30$ on crates
7:21 PM - oh: and got NOTHING
This is ontopic and shows that it's an INCREDIBLE COINCIDENCE.

We need to do a survey or something to be sure.

Can't say it's happened to me. If anything, buying from the Store seems to lower my drop rate.
I bought tons of shit and got nothing interesting, other than two Degreasers.
