¿Bug/error range price in backpack.tf?

[unanormal]

Hi friends, sorry for my bad English.

 

 

Why when the price of the low keys, the range of this unusual price rises? Is it the same with everyone else unusuals?

 

I made this screenshot when the keys were worth less refined (17 ref each keys aprox).

 

 

Before it was worth 340-385 and 322-365 now. Why does this happen? Will you continue going down or going up?

 

 

What is happening? If you could explain whether it is a bug or something else I would be grateful. Thanks in advance for your time and effort.

 

 

EDIT (09/20/16):  The keys have gone up in price few minutes ago. (No suggestion has been accepted) And the price range of unusual has fallen again to 317.26–359.56

Hats with values based on suggestions made before March 2015 are priced in buds not keys.

 

For reference: http://forums.backpack.tf/index.php?/topic/6033-guide-for-unusual-price-suggestions/&do=findComment&comment=356030

 

This means that whenever buds, keys, or refined change, the hat value will also change in keys. This will be fixed once it gets a new suggestion.

 

http://backpack.tf/suggestion/51fc0f31ba2536644b000005- here is the last accepted suggestion pricing it at 15-17 buds which roughly converts to 150-170 keys today.

Well its kind of bug. This hat needs to be updated, This hat was priced long time ago, 3 years ago http://backpack.tf/suggestion/51fc0f31ba2536644b000005

 

In short: this hat price is outdated, and it has a story behind this price. So you need just suggest a price suggestion for this hat.

 

The thing is, 3 years ago Backpack.tf unusual prices used to be in earbuds. And about 1-2 years ago earbud economy crash started to happen, you can see earbud price graph, it used to be 18-15 keys, earbud prices were dropping down VERY VERY FAST and this affected all unusuals, which were priced in earbud currency at that time, so Backpack.tf staff converted all unusual hat prices from earbuds to keys and the price is now inaccurate, and so there might be some changes based on something (i think earbuds) what makes price still warry. There are some more old priced unusual with this cancer currency. It was a nightmare and lost for all the people who had their unusuals after earbud started to crash, everyone started quickeslling unusual, and everyone tought tf2 is finally in economy crash lol, but thank god backpack.tf staff saved us by switching from earbuds to keys. I still have no idea why earbud was set as currency (just because earbuds were easier to add in a trade than keys, but it was not smart to use it as currency as earbud prices warries, and key prices doesnt in usd). So this is the story.

Thank you both for answering. Now I understand it all.

 

I think before using earbuds because there were only 8 slots to trade ingame.

 

Can you create a suggestion (showing evidence of history trade) showing by few articles/keys is acquired this unusual? (The trade was made several years ago) Or the trade must be recent?

 

I paid as over 400 keys in unusual and unusually pure keys for this (a couple of years ago) (non-duped) 

 

Any suggestions? How should I sell it? He has already lost enough value since I bought it. And the keys will continue to rise infinitely.

 

Any advice you can help me, please?

 

 

Thanks again.

Well, the current price is inflated. The last suggestion at 15-17 buds would convert to closer to 200 keys today. And you yourself paid like 250 for it - http://backpack.tf/profiles/76561198005840633#!/compare/1388563200/1388649600- given the duped burning CM is around 200. http://www.tf2outpost.com/trade/28001076

 

So as key prices go up, the scorching cm value should revert closer to where it probably is in value. Suggestion-wise, there really isn't much that can be done until a clean one finally sells because the dupes are selling for less than the current price.

Thank you very much. Now I understand everything much better. You know a lot about this. I would like to ask a couple more questions:

 

How do I compare inventories like what have you done?

 

Does it take many days to approve or reject an unusual suggestion? For example I'm waiting for this: http://backpack.tf/suggestion/57c2b82383de6b3c6865c86c

 

I have made a deal with this hat and unusual effect. But not if they accept or reject the suggestion.

 

I wonder if possibly accept or reject. All other suggestions in this hat with the other unusual effects have been accepted very very fast

 

Is this is because it has to supervise a moderator/administrator ?.

 

 

Thanks again.

2. It warries according to proof/items in existance, it might take from 2 days up to 1 month. It really depends how you provide proof if there is no other question marks. Mostly currency suggestions takes long to accept. Suggestions gets reviewed and accepted by moderators. So its up to them how long they keep suggestion open.

Thank you very much for your help friend. You are right. The suggestion was canceled at 27 days. Although the vote was almost 100% positive. I think I understood how this works.

 

Regarding my hat, I think I will cost a lot to sell. If someone can give me some advice or something, I'd appreciate it.

 

 

Thank you very much again for your help.
