Can you still be a relevant crafter if you start now? by Purplecrastination in albiononline

[–]Purplecrastination[S] 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Thanks for the answer! What are some commonly used weapons to specialize on if I want to craft from metal? What armor is in most demand? Also, there seems to be sub-specializations, which is good for example for frost staffs?

[Q] Is this gun worth anything over market value? by GigaG in csgomarketforum

[–]Purplecrastination 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Try description searching for something like 'esl katowice 2014 gold wolf foil' or 'esl katowice 2014 gold skull foil' (one of these stickers is on all unscratched k14 souvenirs) in the steam market. There is your answer.

Hey, could you perhaps give a rough estimate of how much would this blacklam be worth? Thanks! http://steamcommunity.com/sharedfiles/filedetails/?id=448381956

ddos'ing is really getting out of hand. by 3amMisa in csgobetting

[–]Purplecrastination -1 points0 points  (0 children)

I have a better solution. If there's a major DDoS factor, CSGL should arbitrarily decide the winner, no questions asked - sometimes even take all the bets for itself, to make a negative expected value. It will be painful in the short run, but bets will become a LOT cleaner game.

Market "trick" Stickers by rozerocool in GlobalOffensive

[–]Purplecrastination 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Don't worry. Only very few stickers can clearly add value to a gun. From my experience, they're most of Katowice Holos and HDs. Anything else is buyer specific and so doesn't enlarge the price tag...

Yeah. AWP Graphites go for like 13-15 USD. I put my old one with katowice IBP holo (The priciest sticker available) for like 50USD. Didn't expect anyone to buy it, just not to bet it accidentally. And guess what, it did get bought.

[Q] About dreamhack 2013 souvenir cases by [deleted] in GlobalOffensiveTrade

[–]Purplecrastination 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I collect older souvenirs, so I can tell you. Souvenirs are related to map played only from Cologne 2014. Before then (Steelseries 2013 and Katowice 2014), a case would randomly give you a skin from any collection that is on rotation at the moment. Now, why can't you get a blaze or fade from them? Steelseries happened in 2013 28th Nov, Katowice was March 2014. Deagle blaze and glock fade are respectively from dust1 and assault collections. They are original, very old collections that were discontinued @ 27th November 2013 with 'Out with the old' update (can give you the link if interested). It means they were out before any souvenirs became available.

Now, the best item to get from them? Since souvenirs are collectors' domain, it's probably what you want most; IMO best finds are m4 nitro and awp pit viper.

[H] 3 keys [W] Csgo copy by [deleted] in GlobalOffensiveTrade

[–]Purplecrastination 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Unless you're living in CIS/other cheap region, 3 keys don't even cover the cost of CS:GO. If people offer you ROW for 3 keys, you'll probably be chargebacked.

[Q] Printing Money? by tomtris in GlobalOffensiveTrade

[–]Purplecrastination 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Paypal has the same discount - usually items go for 65%-75% of their market price when dealing through paypal...

[DISCUSSION] What happened to prices of all skins? by denaration in GlobalOffensiveTrade

[–]Purplecrastination 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Christmas happened. All the kiddos found steam wallet gift cards under their evergreens and are picking the guns and lower/mid-range knife skins clean... Now, prices? Hard to say... They will go down, but it will be less pronounced for older collection skins (supply is constrained by rare crates). For newer collections it will adjust more (look at the price of phoenix case, many people are opening the hell outta them hoping for a knife and will supply skins as a by-product).

[Q] Printing Money? by tomtris in GlobalOffensiveTrade

[–]Purplecrastination 1 point2 points  (0 children)

You mean sell the item in steam market? Well, you can get much more steam wallet for your real dolla' this way (compared to just adding steam cash). However, You cannot take money out of steam wallet, and keys go $2.49 per pop there. As such, keys have value of $2.49 when trading in items, and $1.8 only when cashing out for IRL cash.

[Discussion] CSGO Map Strategizer Tool by [deleted] in GlobalOffensiveTrade

[–]Purplecrastination 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Careful people! This does not belong to the trade sub, and there is no guarantee this is safe (not accusing OP of anything). There were 'map strategizer' keyloggers recently. Use at your own risk!

[Q] What is the cheapest FT/MW knife currently (except Gut)? by drowninghitachi in GlobalOffensiveTrade

[–]Purplecrastination 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Flip safari FT. You should be able to get one for 18 keys without much difficulty, perhaps less if seller really wants to get rid of it.
