poi Posted October 7, 2017 Share Posted October 7, 2017 So when I started trading a few months ago, my only item was a Brotherhood of Arms which I received as a gift. I managed to work my way up to around a 7-8 key backpack through a mixture of both luck and determination. Now that my backpack is in unusual quicksell range, I've been looking to just trade all of it for an unusual discounted. Do y'all think this would be a good move or should I just keep on working up slowly? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Low-tier to mid-tier trading is tiring since everyone treats backpack.tf as gospel basically. I've heard that unusual trading is like more "leaps-and-bounds" to say rather than the slow grind present in everything below. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The reason for this is because you would have the funds to get either a hat with a higher demand for a quicker flip, or can get multiple hats so that your eggs are not all in one basket.

Yeah, I get what you're saying. I'll try some (in all probability a lot) to reach unusual range Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
