[QUOTE=Desuh;38697788]Idk what I should get. The prices are nice but it's so hard to get pure offers nowadays and trading is so slow so i dont know if I should buy any of them for one or a few buds profit.[/QUOTE] Look for a hat you like and would like to wear for a while and offer on that. Right now unusuals arent the best place for profit.

Guy denied my offer of Misty Skull Attendant + BMOC + Lucky No 42 for IASTE Gatsby JUST because it's 1 of 1. Seriously, fuck the people who buy hats JUST to make profit or refuse your offer because it's not PURE promo or 20buds unusual overpay bullshit. Some of us want a specific high-tier hat because we actually PLAY TF2. >.>

Someone is offering a Secret Stahlhelm on my Harvest Moon tree. Any opinions?
Take it Edit: Ah its Mr.Steal-yo-girl. He'll ask you to add 2-3 trees for sure judging from the last time he wanted 40-50 in hats for his secret hallmark.
I thought you were going to keep that harvest tree forever??
[QUOTE=MrFlashcat;38699844]I thought you were going to keep that harvest tree forever??[/QUOTE] I tried to get the 13th Hour Beak back but the French-Canadian idiot refuses to budge. The Harvest Moon Tree is not as good as I thought.

You have no intention of buying it for any more yet you go around saying I am undervaluing the hat when someone is selling for that price exactly?
I remember when Jimmee declined my offer of 23128 rubles on his Beams Samur-eye a few months back. Now they're 17 buds.

The guy flamme bought from doesnt seem to have a lot of experience. And the guy selling the samureye right now is quickselling more or less. I sold mine for 27 and would have never taken 17 buds. It did fall but not that low imo. Those two instances when it was sold for 17 are not enough to make it its new price.
[QUOTE=Totenkreuz;38705956]You're pretty good at melting down good hats into cancer.[/QUOTE] Except i've had most of these before I sold my sack? I sold it for paypal.
So basically you are saying that you wont sell for 17 as its too low and you wont buy for 17 as its too high and promos are hard to come by? And you sold for 27 pure? Price in unsusuals =/= price in pure these days. I have seen people pay 100 in unusuals for moon KE yet for pure you can buy one for 70ish more or less. Also prices arent set in stone. Today its selling for 17, tomorrow it might sell for 25 for all we know. My point was that the unboxer got a fair enough deal at 17 buds when another is on the market for 17 pure. If flamme wanted he could have bought the other one instead for the same price. I wasnt commenting on the price of the hat specifically but more on whether the unboxer got ripped or not which he felt he did seeing his comment. Train your guns at something worth fighting for next time instead of taking random digs at me. It makes you look stupid. And one last thing, price too low you say? I dare you buy that hat listed on sop for 20 buds when he's asking for 17. Do it.
[QUOTE=zzuubb;38709290]Also prices arent set in stone.[/QUOTE] Yeah, I'd agree with this. Correct me if I'm wrong, but weren't unusual prices kinda based off the highest bidder? I mean, wasn't the Moon Modest set at 40buds because Mattie bought the very first one for that? If I'm correct, that's a real dodgey way to base prices. I guess it's the best method we go so far, but it's still pretty badly done. I mean, let's say there's an unusual up for sale. One guy bids 20buds ... another guy is [I]so[/I] desperate for it he bids 35buds knowing no one else can top it. Even he himself knows it's not worth 35buds, but he's just that desperate. Then the hat gets marked at 35buds. Is this the method used?
