AwesomeMcCoolName Posted April 14, 2013 Share Posted April 14, 2013 Sooo many people see the arrow, and then assume the price is increasing/decreasing, and don't understand that the arrow means it has increased but doesn't mean it is still increasing...

MC22 Posted April 14, 2013 Share Posted April 14, 2013 They should just all be replaced with a little symbol when you hover over It says how long bumped ago. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Chief D Posted April 14, 2013 Share Posted April 14, 2013 People actually think that? The arrow remains for about a week I believe. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
AwesomeMcCoolName Posted April 14, 2013 Author Share Posted April 14, 2013 People actually think that? The arrow remains for about a week I believe.Tons of people think that, and because of them, they often will add a rec on top of the high end or subtract a rec from the low end. (1 rec being average--1 scrap for a crappy craft hat, several keys for unusuals etc...) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Baloo Posted April 14, 2013 Share Posted April 14, 2013 So many people think this. I had someone added once and was about to sell them an item I had recently decreased in average price and they said they didn't want to trade anymore because they saw the price was 'going down' on backpack.tf Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

MC22 Posted April 14, 2013 Share Posted April 14, 2013 This. A long time ago a person was discouraged from trading for my unusual a long time ago, because of the down arrow. Then I showed him who moved it down Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
smokedem Posted April 15, 2013 Share Posted April 15, 2013 I fully agree. I've had to explain to several people exactly what that arrow means. A last-bumped date on hover would be very nice, too. It would help me determine if I needed to research a hat before trading with it, without making me click on the "suggest new price" button.

Joshua Cain Posted April 27, 2013 Share Posted April 27, 2013 People actually think that? The arrow remains for about a week I believe. 2 things. Change it so the arrow is indicating that there is an active suggestion for item. Or Wait a day or so to mske the change durring which t he arrow indicates that a change will happen Either way the arrow should be shown on the item in peoples back packs to give some warning.
