BidBadMoo Posted June 11, 2015 Share Posted June 11, 2015 The link shows the buy and sell orders for battle-worn taunt processors, but there are buy orders where people are paying 0.33 (or more) but putting their price to buy multiples. To me this just seems like a way to boost your price to the top regardless of what you're paying. It might be perfectly fine though, I don't really know :c Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Vaccinated Autist Posted June 11, 2015 Share Posted June 11, 2015 as long there are notes saying they are buying multiple,those are okay Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
have a nice day Posted June 11, 2015 Share Posted June 11, 2015 well posting you are buying for .33 but in the note you say your buying for .11 is not allowed but I think what your saying is ok Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Tanner the Original Scout™ Posted June 11, 2015 Share Posted June 11, 2015 Well, if it DOES state they're buying multiple of the same item. It's allowed. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Betasecret Posted June 11, 2015 Share Posted June 11, 2015 as long there are notes saying they are buying multiple,those are okay No it's not. You could bypass all buying orders by doing this. You could claim for every item you're buying multiple while in fact you're just looking to buy one. However, by doing this you just bypassed everyone else. If you are buying multiple you should put them at 0.33 ref each and put in the notes you're looking to buy more then one (or put the specific number you're looking to buy). An example of how it should be done: http://backpack.tf/stats/Unique/Gift%20Wrap/Tradable/Craftable ==> People looking to buy multiple gift wraps, listing the price at which they are buying at, who are adding in their notes that they are looking to buy more then one.

BidBadMoo Posted June 11, 2015 Author Share Posted June 11, 2015 Ahh ok, it just seemed weird that people could be buying for 0.22 but be shown above someone buying for 0.33, but i guess it doesn't matter that much Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Report it and it wil be taken care of. pretty sure polar has said that is allowed somewhere iirc (yes im not sure) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Discovery Posted June 11, 2015 Share Posted June 11, 2015 That's allowed.. I think. If you think it's not, do what I do: >report >laugh when they get banned Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
1+1=3 ? Posted June 11, 2015 Share Posted June 11, 2015 I don't think this is allowed. If everyone does this, the priority of the buying price is meaningless. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
BidBadMoo Posted June 11, 2015 Author Share Posted June 11, 2015 I don't think this is allowed. If everyone does this, the priority of the buying price is meaningless. Yeah, thats kind of what i was thinking but it seems like people aren't really sure whether its ok or not (like me) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Julia Posted June 11, 2015 Share Posted June 11, 2015 It's not really fair to the other buyers. You can be put at top even though you're paying less per part. No one wants to see spam like "buying 9 parts for 1 ref" when there are buyers at 0.33 who would pay 3 ref for 9 parts. Just say you're paying 0.11 ref per part, but only looking to buy 9. It's not that hard. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ŴƬЯ-A Vakume Kleener Posted June 11, 2015 Share Posted June 11, 2015 it kinda sounds like cutting in line to me. It's like the people who say they're selling a one key item for 17 ref, and say they'll give change for a key. It's cutting in line. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I, personally, agree... but not sure what the Rules&Guidelines say about it. I would imagine they would agree as well, since the buy order is for "A" robotpart, there is no way to change the icon itself to say x33 or w/e. This is kinda what TF2Outpost is for. I would just put the price I'm paying for EACH and then in my notes say that I plan on buying multiple... some sellers won't even bother adding someone if they're just buy one.

Woifi The Viking Posted June 12, 2015 Share Posted June 12, 2015 This is not allowed. Since bp.tf doesn't support multi listings you have to make a buy order for a single item. Report buy orders like these (no ban should be given imo but the listing will be removed). pretty sure polar has said that is allowed somewhere iirc (yes im not sure) I'm sure you confused it with the paint/ks thing.
