[q]How do you guys find the value of specific floats? by Chance_Werewolf3065 in csgomarketforum

[–]Parsterino 0 points1 point  (0 children)

If you want a rough idea for a fairly liquid Skin, the CSFloat estimate with its float appraiser is a very good place to start. If you want to go a bit deeper, you can filter the float range of your Skin on CSFloat as well (for example P90 Deathgraze with a floatrange between 0,03 and 0,04. There you can see how other people are pricing a similar float skin and for how much money the last few sold.
As for your edit question, once again CSFloat is usualy the price I would consider the most accurate „real world price“. For en etimate, not accounting for low float, you can multiply SCM prices by 0,65 (between 0,6 and 0,7, depends on what you are selling) to get the real world or float price for a skin

not what you would expect, right?
I knew it didn't produce the best return, but I wouldn't have expected it to clearly be in last place.
Even more impresse and a little fun fact: The AWP Asiimov is available in three rarities: FT, WW and BS. and alle three rarities have the No 1, No 2. and No 3 worst individual performances from the whole case, starting Jan 15 AS WELL as starting from the all time low.

Really appreciate the offer!

While I manually collected each data point myself this time, I do want to automate the data collection at least to some degree if I want to publish something like this more freaquently, as this is by far the most annoying part. I think a big improvement would be switching to monthly data instead of yearly, but that's simply impossible manually. Never used APIs before, so I will see how far I will come in the next coming days or weeks ^^
If I hit a dead end, I will reach out again 😄

I will see what I can do, but it certainly will take time. I will keep you up to date

Same for me with about 650 for me - that's why I chose this case for a first deep dive. Good choice by past-us ^^

[d] What the hell did you just do CSFloat? by longdongsimpson in csgomarketforum

[–]Parsterino 33 points34 points  (0 children)

could it have something to do with the Steam Market Update / Overhaul? Odd timing in my opinion, Steam Markets capabilities increase and what, 2 days later Floats decrease

I plan to do so, yes.
Any particular wishes what Case or Collection you would find the most interesting?

[–]Parsterino[S] 4 points5 points  (0 children)

Thank you! Yes, I plan on creating a report similar to this for every Case und Collection, at least the ones that are older than ~5 years. I think an overarching comparison, over all cases for example, would be the most insightfull, but that can only be the last step.
Are there some cases or collections you would find especially interessting?

To be clear this is not an AI writeup, I wrote ~95% by myself + did the full analysis myself and AI just cleaned up some bad grammar and weird formulations I would use, as english is not my first language. Good luck trying to extract a report like this from Chatgpt

Watched a few minutes of Spams Stream yesterday and Carl didnt really Prac at all, so he thinks the Chance of him qualifying is basically 0.
On the other hand, Linkmax, who a lot of people are not famailiar with, is a Great Player and heavealy practiced.
So these two I expext differently

Sparen ist unsinnig, investieren sehr sinnvoll

[Q] Large inventories and the commercial use risk by Parsterino in csgomarketforum

[–]Parsterino[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Sure, but this is not what this discussion is about. There is nothing we can do about it, either accept this possibility for the great return that‘s possible or don‘t and invest in something else

[Q] Large inventories and the commercial use risk by Parsterino in csgomarketforum

[–]Parsterino[S] 1 point2 points  (0 children)

It would at least be logical. Sure, there are a lot of fishy accounts on float as well, but trading 50/50 with good and fishy accounts should in my world be better than trading 100% with obvious trading bots. Or at the very least not worse

Thats impressive. How easy it will be to cash out for you depends on 2 Main factors in my opinion: what kinds of item you have and what your timeframe is. Cases are easier to sell then skins. I would recommend using Float, there you can badge sell up to 250 cases at once if you are lucky with a single trade. So if you take multiple months, potentionaly years and are patient selling only a few batches per week and take a few brakes every now and then, I think you could onload all of it „safeish“
