[PSA] Unusual Price Update Request Thread


Jester

Recommended Posts

Were you guys able to update the price of a Roboactive Snaggle?

Just saying but if we update it again it would most probably be either around the same range or might even be lower.

 

Your sale of a PE snaggle + 3 buds is a clear outlier and probably just a very bad deal...

 

Again you bought it for around 6 buds...with 6 buds you can do alot more than that :S

Sure, just please update the range so it's around 10 buds.  As I said, it should be around cloudy moon/secret in terms of pricing, according the the unusual effect tier list.  Since there is only one, this reinforces this concept.  Burning flames is like I said massively duplicated (16 Burning Flames Snaggles vs 7 Scorching, and 3 Cloudy Moon)



 


As I said;


http://www.tf2outpos.../trade/15697877 Offers of 9-11 buds. 


http://www.tf2outpos.../trade/15614694 Offers of 7-10 buds.  


 


I know my offer was an outlier as I got it for very cheap, but it deserves to be a lot higher than the current bp.tf price (More than triple)


There is only one trade that sold the snaggle for anything close to 3.5, and that was because he needed pure, and the price of roboactive wasn't sure yet.  Now that it has established itself as a god tier effect, it should be easier to price check.

Sigh, ill update it as soon as a decision on the bud suggestion is made (dont like changes in currecy screwing up my range, i have around 40 suggestions banks xD)

 

Will post back proof here later tonight

I took a look and i see no issues with the current price.

 

Also your thread about price check where you got the price from http://www.tf2pricecheck.net/Thread-PC-Roboactive-Ol-Snaggletooth It's very likely that you got tricked :L

reasons for:

1) that guy has one post. A single post pricing your snaggle.

2) Pretty much joined the site to  tell you that it's worth "10-15 buds"

3) he apparently based it off the other snaggles(Halloween Effects like Cloudy Moon, Secret) and gave you 10-15 buds.

Here's a secret one for 10 buds. http://www.tf2outpost.com/trade/15080491

-open for 1 month

 

Reasons why next to no one should take price check seriously 

 

[Proof below]

Sales:

1) http://www.tf2outpost.com/trade/15215204

Sold for 3.5 pure

 

2) http://steamcommunity.com/id/Tokubetsu22/

Ended up selling it for a hearts tamo + Hearts SNS 
 
 
 

Your sale PE snaggle + 3 pure <---seems to be the outlier...

 

4) http://www.tf2outpost.com/trade/15215204

Sold the snaggle + planet's vintage merry for max + 29 keys(?)

http://backpack.tf/id/76561198026191089?time=1382684400

http://backpack.tf/id/76561198026191089?time=1382943600

 

Just saying but you really sure you want me to update the snaggle again... It doesnt look anywhere even remotely near 10 buds...

1 and 4 are the same people and same trade.  Max + 29 keys is also around 4.5 buds.  2 was made after the price suggestion went live, so it was probably influenced by it.  Those unusuals add up to 4.1-5 anyways.  

 

But what about just purely looking at offers and tiers?  Roboactive is up there, and there's only 1.  It has to at least be up to 8 or 9 since cloudy moon is like 10-11

I took the link one form the recently accepted suggestion didnt look into it im afraid :S

 

He placed and offer of 3.5 pure on the belt not the snaggle which is why i looked at the trade history instead since it was kinda weird.

 

Hmmmm your best bet would probably to wait for more sales, if the price is indeed higher then you should have no problem selling for higher. There are actually 2 snaggles not the 1 which bp has listed as

 

One here: http://www.tf2outpost.com/backpack/76561198066933865

The other one in your bp: http://www.tf2outpost.com/backpack/16442

 

I cant really price from just the tiers, as tiers are different from people to people many traders are also still staying away from the robo effects. I do agree it's a high tier effect. Also the glitch is nothing new it's on alot of hats (the new bats, hearts on the dapper which circles around the body instead...etc)

 

The traditional effect (Old effects) are always going to be more popular both because they are quite hard to unbox now and many people dont like the new effects after the hype has ended also giving the illusion that all new effects are dropping when they had infact paid a hyped up price for it.

 

If the price for this hat is indeed higher you should have no problem selling it for higher, if you do please make another suggestion then? :)

That's the thing.  To be completely honest, the reason why I haven't bothered selling it yet was because I disabled steamguard (was really annoyed at the logging in through a new computer thing) and then I realized that I couldn't trade, so I turned it back on and I had to wait 15 days.  15 days is a loooong time, and I'm afraid of checking if the offers on my hat are still a go.  

 

I can't trade for another week still, and the price being fixed is annoying given that I've received multiple good offers of over 9 buds on the hat.  The 11 pure is I-cross-my-heart true, but unfortunately I cant give you tangible truth and at the time I thought that Roboactive would go for a lot more so I didn't accept it. Now that bp.tf updated it, people will be looking on there and having a false, very low value placed on my hat.  I'd be perfectly fine with no value being placed on my hat, I just hate having a really low, untrue value.

Also beams softcap. Was never actually priced 

 

EDIT : Doesn't look like a price is happening. 4 on the market. 1 was put up for trade 11 months ago and still has not sold. One of them last sold a year ago. The third had one recent sale that could probably get priced. The fourth was sold 1) for a gifted hat 2) in a multi-hat deal 3) for an unpriced hat

Hey I was just looking at that because of a sale maybe I'll do it

 

As I said though, it seems like pricing would be quite tricky. (See above) 

 

P.S. Were you looking at the Hellfire Bicorne?

May you please update the "Aces High" Cloud Crasher? I spent a while writing my own price suggestion to find out my backpack value wasn't enough to post it. If you want to see what I wrote, feel free to add me. (I can PM you or paste it into pastebin)

Thanks!

 

Anyone willing to update the Searing and Vivid plasma Charmer's Chapeau? 6 month old prices :s

You should try doing them yourself, it's not too hard once you get used to it and it's better for you too. Anyway, I'll try :P

I tried with some unusuals, but it didn't work :S

How do I find proof? (might be a little off-topic).

Eg: I search unusuals I want to update on outpost, I find a trade and look at the history and then I find the last owner and look at his/her closed trades and find the unusual sale, but I can't figure out how much it was sold for because some people don't offer via outpost trade... :(
