[QUOTE=MRTW113;38709559]This only works if everyone else is convinced someone else will also pay that 35 buds. The (Burning) Team Captain effect, if I may[/QUOTE] Oh ok, makes sense.
[QUOTE=zzuubb;38709290]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] You are getting to worked up about this. What I am saying is that its wrong to claim its a 17 bud hat just because one guy bought it for that off an unknowledgeable looking guy and another one is quickselling for that. And as you said prices are not set in stone. Also my comment was a reply to jimmee. I also agree that its not a rip off. I just thought its rude to butt into other peoples trades and talk the price down, even though I dont know that guy. I would buy it but like I said getting pure right now is hard even if you price your hat fairly and I just don't like beams a lot.
Your past comments "1 of 9 lelel", "17 is too low you are undervaluing, but I wont even pay that much" are enough to tell me everything that's going on.

I have nothing against you if thats what you're hinting at. I wasnt making fun of you for buying that modest. I just found it funny how a hat went from 0:0 to 1:1 to 1:9. That had nothing to do with you.

But i dont expect anything else from a guy who overprices his hats on backpack.tf. Secret reggae for 35 and stahl for 25 good joke when i can offer 20 and 25 pure respectively and have more than enough people willing to sell an ugly rehash of the moon.

[QUOTE=zzuubb;38711655]i am happy to reteact my offer if you wish to offer 16. I know you would enjoy it more than me.[/QUOTE] Ah it's cool. It's already reserved for someone apparently. I can only assume the buyer is paying buyout, seeing as someone offered $550 for it and it's not reserved for him. In return I offered B/O since I assume the reason it's reserved is because the buyer is still gathering. So I was hoping to beat him by already having what is needed. Maybe my logic is way off, but those were my assumptions. I'm on the verge of retracting my offer anyway. I'm happy to settle for what I have.

[editline]5th December 2012[/editline][/QUOTE] I was actually replying to torn as to why it isn't considered a "grail" anymore, wasn't making fun of you. You need to actually read the quotes properly before going on a ranting spree, pointing at everyone. The truth is I got offered a Burning Kabuto + 1 bud for my reggae, which is ~31. However, if you ever checked my SOP thread, you could see I have a price of 27 pure there, so it's not "a overvaluing based on backpack.tf derp" so get your shit. The price of 25 is because I bought it for ~23 and it's 1 of 2 on a pretty nice hat and effect combo. I never said I would reject 20 pure.

I wonder how many kids in Russia have been killed due to hats.

I just went in to snip my post and I saw that the Samur-Eye was already sold. Oh well, maybe it's for the best... I did tell myself I would stop chasing unusuals after the Modest
I admit that I'm not terribly familiar with how unusuals are gauged in value; on average, where would a Vintage Tyrolean with flies sit? That one specific setup is something I'd be interested in, and it'd be nice to know the general ballpark of what it's worth in keys/buds/whatever if I ever came across somebody willing to hawk one.

Why is it the only 2 g. fetti veils are in the hands of highballers wanting 5+ pure each I'm never going to get one.

[QUOTE=Kaze1;38727619]harvest wraith wrap for my secret reggae?[/QUOTE] I WOULD SO HARD
[QUOTE=Desuh;38727810]I WOULD SO HARD[/QUOTE] but his offers aren't so good and according to pricechecks it's ~10 buds under ;/
[QUOTE=Kaze1;38727844]but his offers aren't so good and according to pricechecks it's ~10 buds under ;/[/QUOTE] well I would. I love the wraith wrap. Why didnt you take that burning kabuto+ bud back then?
[QUOTE=Kaze1;38727844]but his offers aren't so good and according to pricechecks it's ~10 buds under ;/[/QUOTE] Secret and Reggae are disgusting, Harvest is awesome and the wrap is ok.
[QUOTE=Desuh;38727871]well I would. I love the wraith wrap. Why didnt you take that burning kabuto+ bud back then?[/QUOTE] He moves his hats too fast and I was at university when I got offered that. Ofcourse when I came back to take it, he didn't have the kabuto anymore.

[QUOTE=Desuh;38728484]was it joe? it happened to me as well :V[/QUOTE] Yes. He then bought another one for a lantern crone dome afaik
Quick question. Would an unusual with a History showing person 1 being the original owner then it being traded to person 2 and most recently being traded back to person 1 cause people to think the hat could be duped or something fishy going on with it? It isn't but I have basically had 2 tf2 accounts for as far as I can remember. 1 was my real playing only account and the other is just my pure trading account. I'd like to trade this unusual to my main account to keep for good but i'm not sure if in the future i'd want to sell it if any problems would arise. I don't think it should but you never know with unusuals. The hat in question is a bubbling phantom.
