The scam trades megathread. - Games

A few days ago, a friend of mine gave me his Steel Pot for some dupe spy weapons and a Secondary Slot Token I made a while back. Today he messages me saying he wants his hat back. Why? He said he didn't get a Big Kill from crafting. :colbert: I'm keeping it unless he gives me something good back.

[QUOTE=Goggles;27130334]I don't think so. I'm pretty sure than any crate has a chance of unboxing an unusual of any hat available in unusual form.[/QUOTE] I haven't seen any of them popping out, who knows.

That's why I wanted to sell it quickly before its value fell. I already have a cool hat (well two cool hats) for my Pyro, so I don't need this one. [editline]2nd January 2011[/editline] So that makes it the third game I get for free! :v: And I will likely trade my Unusual away for Portal 2 (and a few other games) when the preorder will be possible.

He wanted a secondary slot token to craft a primary?

[QUOTE=Amaurus;27141789]Where do you find these idiots? I need server IPs.[/QUOTE] Trade_plaza servers should do the trick, I usually spam what I'm trading then when I get a request I tell them to make me an offer. Then I push them to add a few extras, not everyone falls for this though. Or you should just keep sending people trade requests until you get a good deal.

So I got a noble amassment for my capotain with scorching. It is considered the third best hat in the game, and sells for 300-400$ On top of that I got it off some annoying chick who micspams all day.

[url]http://tf2tp.com/trade.php?trade=208176[/url] TROLOLOL Got that trade asap, the guy said he had like 10 offers, but I traded him right away.

Got an Amputator and Crossbow for 3 random weapons each. Good deal for me since I see both of them go for no less than a reclaimed (which equals 6 weapons), I wasn't using any of the 6, and I really wanted those weapons.

Nobody wants it, it's the least wanted out of tower hats. Kabuto with beams goes for like 300ish now. [editline]2nd January 2011[/editline] I haven't traded in a while, but god do you make prices up. Unusuals aren't worth as much as they were before, and even before that wouldn't be the price of noble.

That's why I don't give "advices" anymore. They can't do anything on their own. I give them advice, and they actually obey me, they don't take it as advice. I don't want to trade for you, I'm there to give you advice. Next time someone asks me for advice, I'll rip them off on purpose.

In my opinion. And you always listen to me whatever I say. Just like countless others asking me so dumb questions it isn't even funny. As I've said, from now on person who asks me for advice, I'll rip them off. [editline]2nd January 2011[/editline] Next post is page 99. [editline]2nd January 2011[/editline] Whoever posts next is page 99 ok

page 99 is this post?

Who wants to be page 99 king [editline]2nd January 2011[/editline] [QUOTE=Zanpa;27149742]page 99 is this post?[/QUOTE] Told you.

Anyone knows how much money I could get for an Unusual Brigade Helm with Purple Energy? Since unusuals are getting more and more common (lolstockingstuffer), maybe I'd just sell it while I can and buy games with the money later. :v:

Id say around 80ish

I feel the need to tell this. Yesterday I was on a trade server trying to get rid of three keys, and some guy walks in says "I have an unusual mongolian for trade". Now being the jokester I am, I say "two scrap" he says deal. He puts it up, I put in my two scrap. He clicks the "okay" box. I say "Are you serious?" "Yeah, it's a good deal, it's a crappy hat." "But it's unusual, it would sell for tons more" "Oh really? I got this from my stocking stuffer key." Point being, scams are only sometimes okay. I didn't want to rob this guy of his unusual. [b] It was the Heavies Mongolian hat with Flies.[/b]

What was the effect on it? Not to spoil it or anything, but someone else probably ripped him off in place of you.

To be honest, if some guy who was about to rip me off that badly talked me out of it, I'd consider doing the trade anyway just to reward them for being honest. Karma +1 for you.

Wow, whoever offered you that is massive tool. I mean I'd understand if it was towering or modest, but for noble that's just hilarious. The only exception is noble with ghosts.

Question How much is worth UHHH? A) Something around 3 refined [B]B) 2 ref + Tribbly + 2 paints[/B] C) 4 keys D) Get out.

fucking dammit, I just saw a guy get a V. heavy hat for his crossbow.
