Zefrom Posted February 3, 2014 Posted February 3, 2014 Why is it so expensive to get the kits? Specialized Rocket Launcher kit is $15 on the Steam Market and 8KEYS on Backpack.tf, the fab are not spared, selling at $11 and for 6 keys You can easily get Strange Gold Botkiller Rocket Launcher for $9 Can we lower the price?
Grimes Posted February 3, 2014 Posted February 3, 2014 The prices are that high because people are willing to pay that much. You can't "change" steam market prices anyway.
MA☝Omgwtfbbqstfu™ Posted February 3, 2014 Posted February 3, 2014 Because of supply and demand. Kits everyone wants are rare, you can't force other people to sell for less. Its like ebay, people bid up the value of an item based on demand.
February Posted February 3, 2014 Posted February 3, 2014 Well, the kits cost a lot to complete. A Specialized Kit costs around 2.4 keys to complete, a Professional costs around 4 keys to complete.
SirMillbot Posted February 3, 2014 Posted February 3, 2014 Well, the kits cost a lot to complete. A Specialized Kit costs around 2.4 keys to complete, a Professional costs around 4 keys to complete. Well no thats no correct, most specialized fabs cost less than 1 key to make into a kit - around 6-7 Ref.
Duscoda Posted February 3, 2014 Posted February 3, 2014 Well, the kits cost a lot to complete. A Specialized Kit costs around 2.4 keys to complete, a Professional costs around 4 keys to complete. Specs shouldn't cost you more than 1-1.5 keys. You can buy most of the parts for 1 scrap each (3.22 ref in total), and if you're desperate 2 scrap each (6.44 ref). And since you can get most basic kits for 3 ref or less, so if you're spending 2.4 keys to complete a spec kit you're doing something wrong. Why is it so expensive to get the kits? Specialized Rocket Launcher kit is $15 on the Steam Market and 8KEYS on Backpack.tf, the fab are not spared, selling at $11 and for 6 keys You can easily get Strange Gold Botkiller Rocket Launcher for $9 Can we lower the price? Even if Backpack.tf did have prices for specialized and professional fabricators/kits, nobody is going to manipulate the price because you can't afford it or don't want to spend the money for one.
A Cyan Stone in Mustard Posted February 4, 2014 Posted February 4, 2014 It usually depends on the weapon. A Professional Killstreak Atomizer Kit would go for $12, while a Professional Killstreak Rocket Launcher kit would go for $100.
Slocumruls Posted February 4, 2014 Posted February 4, 2014 The average person is currently spending about 3$ (around 1.3 keys) to complete spec kits and close to 7.50$ (3-3.5 keys) to complete pro kits. People buying parts from me are currently spending close to 4$ to complete spec kits and 10$ to complete pro kits (i'm definitely not claiming to be the cheapest).
