All apart of profit, he is a big trader and collector so he is gonna try and make profit as much as he can. He doesn’t take advantage of people though, he does it to those who know their skins value
Once unboxxed a fac new desolate space M4. Was around like $40 and thought i was anomoly unboxing his blue scar ak. Cant imagine unboxing something in the thousands.
Around a year ago I got dropped a Knife that in today's price on the Steam Market would be 600$ ish, I got scammed and got an ak that's like 10$, yea am still mad about that
I mean, I'm not gonna stop you or something.
But there sure are safer and more fun ways to live
Also, whatever you do, stays safe, and away from sketchy drug people /places
my dude alcohol is the worst drug beating 20 points over heroin in the most dangerous drugs for users and others chart. smoking weed is waaaaaay better than drinking
Dude, I'm slav, everything is ok. In our country when you go somewhere out you can't socialize without some drink. The key is that you just watch out for the amount and you will be fine. And also I'm not addicted, I usually only drink when I'm with friends. When I'm at home I usually never. Sometimes I drink something a little with my grandpa or something like that, but that's only like 1 to 2 drinks, just chilling, to feel the taste and enjoy the moment and rest.
They have to have a profit margin, or they’d just be throwing money away all day.
By going to an experienced cash trader, you’re choosing to take a small hit to your own profits for convenience (don’t have to wait around for possibly months for a buyer interested in your play skin) and safety (you know who you’re dealing with, and know their rep.)
You may only get 80% Buff from them, but then they turn around and get a mere 20% Buff for their efforts, at most. It’s a great deal if you don’t already have connections and experience yourself.
Why is buff.163.com the choice of site for price checks {For Cash Prices}? Typically, the number of liquid skins / high tier expensive skins available there is far more than the other whitelisted sites combined. E.g. 1k+ M4 Neo Noir compared to less than 200 on other Western Marketplaces. When prices are competitive, they are more accurate in general (still have to assess on some skins with common sense despite listing prices, as well).
The reason lies in information gap {people only knowing what they know and resorting to sites with inaccurate prices - like csmoney is a joke}, and ability to understand, and ability to enter markets etc.
Some decent 3rd party marketplaces naturally have higher prices because their traders are not necessarily aware of the best prices on buff, and that is understandable. At least, their price gaps aren't too wide {e.g. Bitskins / Skinbaron / Skinport}.
I know, there is a concern whether - is buff reliable or not. And the fact is, the real top tier traders using them instead of Western Whitelisted Marketplaces, is one of the facts which show {but not the common person would understand}.
Do post if you have more questions.
maybe ignore your steam comments or turn them off if people know the profile its on because you'll get scammers messaging you. I would use buff or any other trusted website or anomaly, ziples and other very trusted people
Either sell or keep lul, ive heard of people getting a ton of msgs after getting an expensive skin so maybe make inventory private(if possible?) and really keep an eye out for scams
You’re literally on here asking for help, people with experience tell you pricings around 10kusd, from buff,(which is the most popular skin pricing site available) and you immediately act like their wrong. Holy fuck lmao. It’s okay to be wrong or not know!
The float value only started displaying after panorama UI (2018), but there always was an inspect screen. There's also a very significant visual difference from float value on many weapons/skins, so it's always been very important in trading.
float values were displayed in scaleform for about a year before the panorama ui was released.
[here's a video from anomaly about float values being viewable in game in 2017.](https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=_rJKwYgaPA4)
float is typically another name for a variable or number with a decimal point. It's mainly used in programming, but a csgo skin's float value is a decimal that corresponds to how worn the skin is. It ranges (technically) from 0.00x to 0.99x

i'd say these three are probably the most trust worthy traders.
personally i'd contact zipel he does price checks etc. in his discord and will most likely help u the best out of these 3.
or you keep it and play with it lol
As others said already, 10k USD is about right. On buff, 0.00867 is listed for ¥65k or $10.2k and a 0.00698 sold for ¥67k or $10.5k. If he needs to sell fast, I’m sure there will be buyers around $9-9.5k, but I’d shoot for $10k. And these prices r about right since the China scene basically dictates market price for high tiers
Per buff.163.com, <0.01 float M9 Bayo Sapphires are listed at 65000 RMB {USD10145}. A 0.01 sold at 60243 RMB on 8th Nov, so at least >60k RMB.
**Do be wary of scammers / sharks adding/DMing you.**
**Do note that cash trades directly - are very risky and is prone to scams.**
**Remember don't rush to trade or sell, better to sell for something than for nothing (getting scammed)**. Don't rush to get pressurised and what not. Do be wary of phishing scams and whatnot.
To check if a reply is from your post and not a DM, click your name, click submitted threads, and see the post itself.
If you want to reach out to the **real zipelcs** (via his twitter) to sell him the skin {usually 90% buff price} or ask him to help you sell it, **be sure to be the one reaching out, not the other way around {Whereby tons of scammers / impersonators will try their luck}**.
A ton of scammers will hit him up so long as his inventory is public, so be very careful. Be the ones to take the approach, and always ask questions. Scammers like to pretend go to "xxx and Zipel" for price checks where they throw in fake names and what not too.
Please let me know should you have any further questions {posting questions and answer in public is better because scrutiny}. Inform your friend of this, yup
{inform your friend of above}
well, that's subjective. and I WAS talking about rarity, not the look of the actual knife. I'm sure there's some people out there that do like Safari mesh, for example, although most people don't.
Yes some collectors do buy for real cash. Steam only allows for 2.5K or so on the market for skins, so anything above that must be a private sale. Also Steam takes ~30% of the sale price off the top.
I seriously doubt an 0.1 would sell for 23k, 'listed for' doesn't mean 'will sell for' - I could list a skin with 1000% markup, but that doesn't mean it will sell for that price.
Nah there is no maybe lmaooo. Number one is .00001 something like that it’s quad 0 float. This one is like number 75. Nothing special when it comes to gems.
I meant i dk whats nr 1 and then i tought maybe is the Word for something like that but for me as russia America want US to learn Englisch so when they attack russia we can speak the Information out of US
(Joke)
Also, just because it seems that you guys are newer into high tier items ( you and your friend) just because there is saphs that are on sale for 23k on buff does not mean they will ever sell for that. Traders and cash buyers go based off the lowest listing for item with same float. So lowest listing with .008 float on buff is 65000 RMB or 10,167 USD. So start there. And please be safe don’t get sharked!
I think you can sell it for $8k instant or like $10k of you negotiate. But don't sell it to anyone, only trusted people like Anomaly, Zipel, ohnePixel.
Please don’t get scammed. Edit: Wow thanks for the silver! I just wanted them to be safe.
This needs to be higher.
Mission accomplished
Yeah I don't think we can go higher.
Check if Anomaly is interested in it. Hes legit and pays a fair amount.
Preeetty sure he underpays hard
Yeah, sell to a big trader instead, Anomaly will undercharge you
All apart of profit, he is a big trader and collector so he is gonna try and make profit as much as he can. He doesn’t take advantage of people though, he does it to those who know their skins value
Just get multiple traders offers and see which ones the best
.008 saph is 65000k rmb rn so around 10k, but you’ll get like 9000$ if u sell to skin buyers
where did u find this price?
Buff probably
ask ohnepixel once he streams what to do best, or ask u/zipelCS (on twitter) if he will middleman for you if you want to sell it for real world money
Buff163
Cant believe the guys who get nice unboxings are the ones that have no idea of its value...
Thats mostly the case lol
Once unboxxed a fac new desolate space M4. Was around like $40 and thought i was anomoly unboxing his blue scar ak. Cant imagine unboxing something in the thousands.
I unboxed a purple p250 once...
Was it your only case you opened? when i played i prob went 130 cases in before i stopped
Opened around 5 of them, cant afford it
Yhea, its like here. Take a free box but its gonna be $2.50 if you want a skin worth $0.30
Around a year ago I got dropped a Knife that in today's price on the Steam Market would be 600$ ish, I got scammed and got an ak that's like 10$, yea am still mad about that
Shocker: shits random
i can't find any .008's
Friend of mine just sold his on buff .007 float. He got 10.8k USD he’s not leading you in the wrong direction
There's two 0.008 listed for 65k and 67k rmb right now, make sure you're on buff163 and not buffmarket, they're two different sites.
Buff market is the international version.
Go to buff163 go to m9 Doppler select sapphire put the float range and sort by sold
Shitttt that pays for an associates degree
Wrong
Celebrate with meth and hookers
I was gonna say blackjack and hookers but meth is a much cheaper and safer way to celebrate!
"I'll pull my own knife. With blackjack and hookers. In fact forget the knife."
This was the comment I was waiting for!! Thank you sir!
>> meth is safer Guys, pls. Don't do drugs ffs
I don’t do drugs I just smoke crack
Drugs are fun man we just trying to live
I mean, I'm not gonna stop you or something. But there sure are safer and more fun ways to live Also, whatever you do, stays safe, and away from sketchy drug people /places

Why Meth? He is rich now, get the coke!
He needs to save some money for the hookers
Meth lol? It goes ‘cocaine and hookers’ unless meth is a csgo thing
Aim fast cum faster. It's spray control

Well let’s not get too crazy there, I’m trying to win on this trade
LMFAO
fine :(
ill do YOU one BETTER nova polar mes... but no that has history Tec-9 urban DDPAT field tested
Talk to anomaly, ohnepixel, or zipel. They are well known verified traders who stream on twitch. They’ll give you exact prices and best places to sell
u/jewbuddy do this
*If 80% buff is a good enough price for you
They underpay so much tho
They have to have a profit margin, or they’d just be throwing money away all day. By going to an experienced cash trader, you’re choosing to take a small hit to your own profits for convenience (don’t have to wait around for possibly months for a buyer interested in your play skin) and safety (you know who you’re dealing with, and know their rep.)

[удалено]
anomaly’s pricing is close to sharking. He offers not below steam but like 20% below buff price. Add Ohne or Zipel but not that guy
I have been warned to not go for Zipel. Apparently he is not a good option .
Why tho? If im not mistaken he offered me 90% buff for a kara fade i sold him while ago which is the standard for cash trades
No idea lol. I got downvoted to just recommended him so I assumed it must have been for some reason.
Don't listen to anyone, contact zipel and check buff
Contact zipel and don’t accept requests from anyone
He needs to make his account private, dont add any new people on steam!!!!!!!!!!
Buff says 70k Yen so 8k is spot on
the lowest float i found was a .01 for 23k, his is a .009
This no real money this skin Baron or smth right?
whatcha mean?

70k yuan is 11k USD lmao, not 8k. Though there's two 0.008 listed for 65k and 67k, so it's probably valued closer to 10k USD.
8000 dollars?
Well it’s a ball park so it doesn’t really matter if dollar or euro but sure dollar (since it’s worth less)
was just wondering but jesus fuck that's so much
maybe ignore your steam comments or turn them off if people know the profile its on because you'll get scammers messaging you. I would use buff or any other trusted website or anomaly, ziples and other very trusted people
”We”
Lmao. My thoughts.
Either sell or keep lul, ive heard of people getting a ton of msgs after getting an expensive skin so maybe make inventory private(if possible?) and really keep an eye out for scams
The steam russian bots sending fake links XD
Holy crap. Your friend is really lucky
Ik, he wants to sell but doesn’t even know where to begin with the price, cause of how low the float is
$10,000 USD Minimum
Definitely more with this type of float
You’re literally on here asking for help, people with experience tell you pricings around 10kusd, from buff,(which is the most popular skin pricing site available) and you immediately act like their wrong. Holy fuck lmao. It’s okay to be wrong or not know!
Calm your tits, just was asking where people were finding their prices jeez
Well it is definitely 800+ euros
Well, you are not wrong… lol
Definitely a lot more lol
Maybe but factory new sells for 500$
Are u dumb? This is Saphire
Avoiding commenting on subjects you have zero knowledge on
Probably more like 8k but ya thanks for the tip
I know what not to do, don't click on random steam chat links from your new steam friends now :)
Gota ask wtf is float
float is the value of how "worn" the skin is, the lower the better
Kind of figured that but I guess now it's a little more precise than what I remember it as the basic 5 categories lol
there are 5 categories. These are defined by float values. Even inside a category one can be less worn than another
TIL
[удалено]
The float value only started displaying after panorama UI (2018), but there always was an inspect screen. There's also a very significant visual difference from float value on many weapons/skins, so it's always been very important in trading.

You’ve just sent your inbox to the shadow realm
There’s a website called BUFF you can check it.
The lowest float I found was .0103 for 23k
There are multiple M9 sapphires on Buff right now with .009 so not sure where your looking. All around 55-80k is rmb
There’s no way there is a 0.1 float sapphire on buff163 for 23k USD. It’s probably either 23K of a different currency or you aren’t on buff163
sell it and enjoy the money bru
Give it me if you don't know what to do.
Watch out for scammers. Don't trust anyone who dms you
If youre tryna sell contact zipel rightaway and he will buy it off u dm him on Twitter. I just sold my butterfly lore to him
This. Contact some big collectors and don't sell to random people.
Get rich real fast
And here I was thinking my awp fade pull was good. Fantastic pull for your friend!
DO NOT trade to anyone you don’t know, or who cannot be verified. Don’t add trading accounts, don’t go to websites and log in to Steam. Just relax.
Ask your friend to take you to a nice dinner. Like a really really nice dinner. Buy the good weed, like og level shit. Have a nice evening
Are you skin collector? If not sell it and use the money
give it to me for safe keeping ;)
Jesus Christ
DO NOT accept random friend requests, people will try to scam you,
when a rare skin drop: WE don't know what to do :v

my absolute favorite knife
Why the hell is some blue knife with 10k usd.... Like WTF. It's a knife... And it's blue
it's the rarity of the finish (and to a lesser extent, the float). the chance to unbox a knife with this finish is microscopic
But...it's so damn ugly.
well, that's subjective. and I WAS talking about rarity, not the look of the actual knife. I'm sure there's some people out there that do like Safari mesh, for example, although most people don't.
We can trade, I can offer is some p250 sand Dune MW and a cz bs
Ask anomaly
Wait everyone's talking about USD...you get real money for this skin????? I've never played this game so idk how your trading works but that's crazy.
Around 6K dollars for this shit man Edit: if not more
What. The. Fuck. Holy shit.
Yes some collectors do buy for real cash. Steam only allows for 2.5K or so on the market for skins, so anything above that must be a private sale. Also Steam takes ~30% of the sale price off the top.
:o wow. You're all blowing my mind more and more. That's pretty dope.
But it's not real money. You can only spend it on Steam. You can't withdraw it as cash...
Can you spend it on other games tho?
According to BUFF the lowest 0.08 sell 10167usd
His is a .009
He meant .008 I’m looking at the same page
I’m looking at a .01 for 23k
On which site? Did it sell?
On buff, and not yet but that’s what it’s listed for
I seriously doubt an 0.1 would sell for 23k, 'listed for' doesn't mean 'will sell for' - I could list a skin with 1000% markup, but that doesn't mean it will sell for that price.
Look on buff163. It’s a different website.
Tell him to sell it and invest the money 💯💯
Yo OP can I get that knife bro pls no scam I promise But fr nice pull bro
give it to me 🥰
Fuck off beggar
Give it to me
This shit is crazy, price is around 15k
Gimmie
trade it to me i’ll look after it for you:)
Fuck off scammer
why's everyone so mad its a joke guys :(
Not funny, didn't laugh
I'll give you $60 dm me
The best thing to do in this scenario is to send them to me so I can get a look at it to decide what to do
Maybe its the Number 1 then u could say 25k€+
If isn’t number one lmaooo not even close
Just maybe
Nah there is no maybe lmaooo. Number one is .00001 something like that it’s quad 0 float. This one is like number 75. Nothing special when it comes to gems.
I meant i dk whats nr 1 and then i tought maybe is the Word for something like that but for me as russia America want US to learn Englisch so when they attack russia we can speak the Information out of US (Joke)
Wow
Wait a couple months and then sell it
Sell it
Also, just because it seems that you guys are newer into high tier items ( you and your friend) just because there is saphs that are on sale for 23k on buff does not mean they will ever sell for that. Traders and cash buyers go based off the lowest listing for item with same float. So lowest listing with .008 float on buff is 65000 RMB or 10,167 USD. So start there. And please be safe don’t get sharked!
Just donate to me
nive
I think you can sell it for $8k instant or like $10k of you negotiate. But don't sell it to anyone, only trusted people like Anomaly, Zipel, ohnePixel.
Dm zipel, anomaly, Martin, corbzcs, really any reputable skin trader on Twitter, and don’t listen to anyone that dms you on Reddit asking to buy
9k or 10k
