CHEESEPUFF Posted September 2, 2018 Share Posted September 2, 2018 so I am the one who owns the only Strange Death By Disco Duck Billed Hatypuss, and I want to know why did the price go down on it! can they do that?! I don't know entirely how it works, but if I own the only one. I should be the one who chooses the price. and the thing really gets me is that the normal one just went up to 350!!!!!! mine should be more BEING THE ONLY STRANGE! so if anyone is any good at this kind of stuff, tell me how to fix this and why this happens. thank you. here are the links: strange: https://backpack.tf/stats/Strange Unusual/Duck Billed Hatypus/Tradable/Craftable/100 unique: https://backpack.tf/stats/Unusual/Duck Billed Hatypus/Tradable/Craftable/100 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Scott Bakula Posted September 2, 2018 Share Posted September 2, 2018 Read the suggestions. The strange version got it's price based off of what you and the person before you paid for it. A similar situation happened with the normal version. If you want the price of your hat raised, sell it at a higher price. If you're keeping the hat however, why should you care about it's price?

Diamond jozu Posted September 2, 2018 Share Posted September 2, 2018 cAlM yOUr TiTs. the normal is 350 coz many sales occurred.if yours is 1/1,only 2 sales occurred https://backpack.tf/suggestion/5b2d74e4cf6c7538bf5fa7fb as you can see in the suggestion for yours,2 sales occurred which is yours and the first owner.if you think yours is at a ridiculous price,then just sell yours for more than 35 keys.lols.i dont see the problem here.

Sadly due to the bizarre way the incoherent suggestions work here you may well only get the higher value from the SCM and not quick buyer heaven (bp.tf) as it clearly states on here its worth less. But SCM clearly says otherwise. Go by the SCM for the time being because clearly there is something broken with the pricing structure.. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

That's how the real world works buddy. Its not like that though, you can sell it at what ever price you want. But this would be like lying about what it sold in the past to get more out of it. It’s not 8000 just cause you think it is, if you sell it for that than sure but if it’s sold for 40 keys, it’s forty keys. That’s how this site works buddy.

Are you stupid? Or just new to trading? The prices are determined on how much you bought/sold it for. If your strange version has never been sold or bought for a certain price, then it’s currently unpriced. You can’t just bloody make up your own prices. And I hate to disappoint you, but your hat isn’t worth nearly 300 keys , so id recommend worrying about the price dropping now as I doubt you’d even get offers close to 200 in the future. now please close this post before you spread more salt Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
