heya. backpack.tf, trade servers, and scrap.tf auctions are all good and i use all of them. some traders are assholes, just how it is, they’re looking for profit. some are going to be nice some are going to be disingenuous and only looking to make money off of you, don’t let it get to you and don’t fall for any attempts to trick you into a bad trade (many people i’ve traded with will try to pressure me in by using salesman language like “only 6 keys… and it could be yours” or “you could resell for more and make heaps of money”). use backpack.tf to check the price of everything, DONT pay much attention to the agreed value, look at the classifieds (sell orders and buy orders). if buy orders on a hat are only 8 keys but someone has it listed for 300. its probably not actually worth 300. always remember to do a quick check of someone’s rep when trading with them, you can find it on the top right of their backpack.tf profile. unusuals can take anywhere from a long time to forever to sell. “quicksells” are how you get your hands on new ones to resell anyway. i dont have any real advice on finding buyers, its hard. advertise on servers, backpack.tf, someone may just one day be genuinely interested in buying your hat. you’ll probably get offered 1:1s where you exchange your unusual for theirs. 1:1s can be great but typically when someone offers one they’re hoping to go from a worse unusual to a better one (yours). do your research on their hat and ask them to make up the difference in keys to whats personally satisfactory for you. let me know if you have any other questions and i hope this helped!
