☪ Taʞis ☭ Posted June 22, 2014 Posted June 22, 2014 Why some unusual are massed duped? Is it hard to tell if it was duped, depending on the level, etc? If you could let me know, I'd much appreciate it. Sorry if it's in the wrong part of the fourms aswell.
Punishment_Fatal Posted June 22, 2014 Posted June 22, 2014 Some Unusuals are massed duped because a lot of profit can be made off of it for virtually nothing. It's not particularly hard to tell if an Unusual's duped.
Seminal Inhalation Posted June 22, 2014 Posted June 22, 2014 Because back in the early days of trading, the unusuals were A LOT more expensive than they were today. And people found ways to dupe items. So a bunch of people decided to dupe items back and forth in order to make a lot of profit, which they did but risked their reputation. No not really, usually it will show somebody ahead of you in the history, or you can check other peoples backpacks in the history.

In the old days of tf2 people found exploits which enables people to dupe hats, many expensive hats were obvious targets, this doesnt happen anymore tho. How hats are duped now is from steam, essentially someone gets hijacked and steam restores their backpack with some hats with multiple copies the chances someone getting hijacked increases...etc
☪ Taʞis ☭ Posted June 22, 2014 Author Posted June 22, 2014 thank you for letting me know , so one way to check is to see if someone is ahead of you in history and if someone is, it means someone has your hat while you have the same hat? One more thing before I go where can I find a list from first gen effects to the new ones?

If it does then it's duped 2) The official tf2 wiki
