Back in business.
Turns out leaving my phone plugged on power up in and letting iTunes load automatically causes explorer to hang. Who knew

Keys, Paint and Tags are a must.
Website is down?
[QUOTE=Noth;29359223]60, and I have one :smug:[/QUOTE]
what a suspicioous smug smile
I've come to the conclusion that I'm completely unable to rip anyone off. Most newcomers didn't want to trade, and everyone else was too smart.
Ah well, less misfortune for others. :smith:

Having got keys for cheap recently, I can say it's definitely possible to profit trade for them, but I [b]highly[/b] doubt you'll be able to do it often, considering they cost actual money, or 36 weapons (based on 2 refined price) to get one
I got a Vintage Vintage Merryweather in a seperate trade for a Degreaser, and then in another trade I get a Bill's for a Boston Basher and a Candy Cane :D
:buddy: Anyone know how much the Merryweather goes for?

Just stick to it.
What's the reason you're not getting any bites?
Not for sale: Offer something anyway, try to impress them without being fair
Nothing of interest: Take up scrap banking (Pay 1 scrap for any 2 weapons, best to do this on Trade servers), so you have a wider selection to offer them
Try setting your sights a little lower. If you're going for unusuals, or earbuds, try get a bill's or some normal hats. Gets you some experience so you know how to deal with them

Er, let me rephrase. I got a Vintage Vintage Merryweather in a seperate trade for a Degreaser, and then in another trade I get a Bill's for a Boston Basher and a Candy Cane

Well, there are bound to be noobs who buy keys and will jump at the chance to trade them for weapons that cost more from the store.

Oh, well in that case

I think from memory VVMerry goes for 2-3 keys?
I really wish I could profit and get nice things without scamming.

Yeah, but it still feels like a dick thing to do.
Taking advantage of low knowledge players to gain personal wealth?
It seems like a descision out of Mass Effect.
God, new players LOVE the gunslinger...I need more...I had to give him this cause I only have one and I named it "Master-Bater 5000"

It might be because I'm going on all the wrong servers, and there is a factor that I'm sometimes afraid that people will laugh at my offers.
Also what do I do if they decline the trade request?
yer backpack
makes me angry in the face area
