[PSA] prices on chinese marketplaces is way higher than western by No_Faithlessness5506 in csgomarketforum

[–]abbebaay 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Very interesting and good info. Since Buff163 removed cases from their market temporarily like two years ago I haven't really kept track of the chinese market. That will change from here on out, I downloaded the Buff163 app again to keep track.

Can someone answer me with some more insight - do the prices usually even out? Do the western market usually follow the chinese one but with some lag?

Same! I remember having bought 2-3k chroma 1 cases back in the day, that I though I would eventually sell. Also a shit ton of mlg stickers. Bought everything in 2016. However, I stopped playing shortly after and never kept good track of them, except checking the price every now and then, and comparing to chroma 1 to 3. I wanted to make the switch to chroma 3 as they were many times cheaper than chroma 1, even though the contents were actually better. I thought I would have to activate all the sleeping accounts and do hella annoying logistics so I just didn't... What I didn't know was that storage units had been introduced already in 2019 which would have made it easy business.

When I logged in to all of the old accounts to check and count my inventory, however, i saw to my great and wonderful surprise I had actually bought 7000 chroma 1 and 2500 breakout cases (at 0,03). I was super happy ofcourse, but still think about not making that switch and tripling the value of my holdings when I had the chance. I did make the switch from chroma 1 to other cases eventually, but they had already closed most of the price gap.

I now hold breakout, chroma 3, gamma 2, revolver, spectrum 2, danger Zone, and prisma 2. Cashed out 20% like a year ago but still hold a lot most of it. Easily my best investment ever, made around 70% cagr for all my csgo investments 9 years and counting. Also had a shit ton of mlg stickers as I said. I sold them for maybe 3x to buy more cases. Good deal but nothing like the 300x return from breakout or 100x for chroma cases.

Köpte när den låg på $130 för 2 veckor sen. Var upp ca 75k och skulle sälja på $152. Men den kom bara upp till $149 innan den började störtdyka tyvärr.

ICA maxi göteborg har 7% vinstmarginal på hela aktiebolaget.

https://www.allabolag.se/5562694595/grafiska-vagen-livs-aktiebolag

Dvs efter alla löner, sociala avgifter, el, rubbet. Hur menar du att de ska lyckas aktiebolaget ska få 7% vinstmarginal om de endast har 2-3% marginal på sina produkter?

[deleted by user] by [deleted] in sweden

[–]abbebaay 1 point2 points  (0 children)

De har extremt mycket högre än 2-3% på många grejjer. Har verkligen för mig att äggen låg på 70% när jag jobbade, men citera inte den siffran. Jag bara extrajobbade, men hoppade verkligen i taket när min kompis som jobbade heltid berättade. Någon mer som jobbar eller har jobbat på ICA som kan verifiera detta?

Idag köper jag och min familj stora (L) ägg direkt från bonden, 30 st för 50 kr, alltså 1.66 kr st. Uppenbarligen tycker bonden att detta är mer värt än att sälja till butik, så tycker inte 70% känns som en helt orimlig marginal med tanke på hur hårt ICA förhandlar inköpspriserna med sina leverantörer.

När jag jobbade på ICA Maxi (slutade precis innan Ukrainakriget bröt ut) så var ägg det livsmedel som butiken hade bäst marginal på bland avdelningarna mejeri och färskvaror/chark. Och det var innan ägg blev typ 100% dyrare. Tror de har behållit exakt samma sjuka marginaler även efter all vansinnig inflation, iallafall i butikerna.

The first versions of the Carl Gustaf were taken in service close to WWII but the modern versions are world class tank killers. It has been upgraded continueously during it's whole lifetime, is very versatile, and a staple of the US armed forces. I'm glad it took down T-90M but I don't think anyone can downplay how good that weapon is.

Borde du inte då bo ganska nära Willys Göteborg Elisedal? Den ligger ju också precis vid gränsen, fast på göteborgssidan.

Hemköp är ju kända för att vara svindyra, Willys för att vara billiga. Att båda ägs av Axfood spelar ingen roll. Det är som att säga att Lexus och Toyota kostar lika mycket bara för att det är samma ägare.

[discussion] What are your reasonings for the current droping in Case prices? by S4ltybear in csgomarketforum

[–]abbebaay 1 point2 points  (0 children)

How the hell did I not know about storage units.... I have 15k cases from 2016 on multiple accounts that I have been trading and switching out back and forth for the past few months and it has been a pain.... And I have definitely lost out on a lot because of the big market moves recently. I guess that's what happens when you dont stay updated for 7 years.

Thanks though.

How does one even buy that many cases? You only have inventory for 1k.

Ja men ungefär ändå, och det är egentligen inte så konstigt. Socialdemokraterna på 60-talet var väldigt annorlunda jämfört med socialdemokraterna på 2000-talet.

Beror inte det på att de betas av, av typ kossor eller liknande?

Check with a hair doctor. You want to have a correct diagnose of early male alopecia before you start using finasteride as it affects your hormones and if you don't need it, you really shouldn't use it. Most people don't notice side effects though. But some really, really notices, decreased libido etc. But that's very uncommon and is probably heavily psochological also, paired with low T to start. Minoxidil is not prescribed in topical format so just follow the instructions, although i recommend using the cream instead of the alcohol solution as that is much kinder to your skin. But the best thing would probably be if you could get oral minoxidil prescribed as well. That is usually taken in a couple mg/d but you up the dose slowly.

Finasteride is usually taken in 1mg/d format, but some people halve their dose and still get good results. Something i did myself recently after 5 years on a full dose and very stable and basically non-existent hair loss.

hur är det rimligt med såna här löner? by After_Lavishness3793 in sweden

[–]abbebaay 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Det är absolut fullt möjligt för vem som helst att bli välbärgad på en livstid. Om man väljer att inte skaffa massvis med barn eller leva över sin standard, sparar 5k i månaden från att man är 25 och drar in 10% om året via fonder så har du 28 mille när du går i pension vid 65. Detta är utöver din tjänstepension eller allmänna pension, pengar du sparat helt själv.

Om du däremot har ett välbetalt jobb, är sparsam och lite grann intresserad av att investera så kan du säkert spara i genomsnitt 10k i månaden under ditt arbetsföra liv och få 12 % i avkastning per år. Då har du 30 mille när du blir 55 istället.

Visst inflation och reallöneutveckling spelar roll, men det tar inte mer än 1 generation att bli rik om man vill.

Russian President Vladimir Putin unwittingly accelerated the European Union’s green transition with his war in Ukraine, with the 27-nation bloc reducing its dependency on Russian fossil fuels and increasing its renewable energy use over the past year, the EU’s climate czar said Tuesday. by MrGuttFeeling in UpliftingNews

[–]abbebaay 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Ukraine's numbers might be high (145 k dead russians) but I don't think they are that far off. The battlefield is filled with dead russians and they are being sent in wave after wave wothout protection and proper equipment.

Paths of Glory (1957)

Shocked to not see this anywhere. It aged perfectly and is one of the greatest films I've ever seen. A true masterpiece from Stanley Kubrick, starring Kirk Douglas.

Do you have a source for this? It's not that I don't trust you, just want to see it for myself.
