B) I found it for 44 keys (not saying where)
C) I already have 10 keys and 20 refined.
But, most importantly, that which is earned through difficulty and toil is more valued than that which is purchased.

Re: [Steam]-y Thread XXX: Throwing titles out the window!
Anyone have a Bubble Pipe? I have a spare Koala Compact, some random weapons (including a Spycicle and an Eternal Reward that are both gathering dust), and could probably be convinced to part with my Otolaryngologist's Mirror if I have to. I don't care if it's clean or dirty.

Re: [Steam]-y Thread XXX: Throwing titles out the window!
Noob trader here, based off a trade spreadsheet linked to, a strange mad milk would be worth .66 refined so 2 reclaimed?
edit: Also, is the item server down, or is it just my internet connection? nvm fixed now.

Got a Hottie's Hoodie for the Spy-cicle and the Koala. Still would like to trade it 1:1 for a Bubble Pipe, but I'm pretty okay with what I've got now.

Re: [Steam]-y Thread XXX: Throwing titles out the window!
I just got a Strange Gold botkiller sniper rifle :smallbiggrin:
I think I want to trade it, but I am not sure for what yet. Is sniper rifle in demand that I can get another gold botkiller like minigun or med gun?
Edit: looking at spread sheet, its 2 keys short so I could add in if really needed...I need to think. :smallcool:

Re: [Steam]-y Thread XXX: Throwing titles out the window!
Remember that the spreadsheet lists the average price for the listed items. This means that some trades have the item cheaper, while others have it more expensive.
It also depends on how much the player values the item. I literally have less than one hour put into the Sniper throughout my whole TF2 career, as I do not find purely dexterity-based classes particularly interesting. This means that even a gold botkiller sniper rifle is worth nothing to me.
Also, since I like the Playground, I tend to offer discounts on trades to fellow members, like the one I replied to above.

Re: [Steam]-y Thread XXX: Throwing titles out the window!
In terms of trades and such, I'm selling a Lumbricus Lid for spreadsheet price, or what we can work out.
Currently I'm using the steam name 'spawnofhastur [no sound]', so add me and we can discuss it.

Oh I know this for sure. Back in the old days, I played a simple java game that had one of the best econ I have ever played, called Dragon court and I went from a dirt poor noob to the most welknown respected member of the community in a few years. I have done my far share of trading, just not in TF2 :smallamused:
My favorite quote about trade is:
Everyone values things differently. In other words, they place their own value on everything that affects their lives. Also from moment to moment they may even change their values. Such as a person, who values diamonds above all else, might be willing to trade a gallon of diamonds for a drink of water to save his life in a desert. What this means is value is a relative thing depending on a need or a perceived need. Yet, how many people will argue and even violently fight over the perceived value of something or some idea only later have an entirely different view point or value.

A lot of people are willing to go 1:1 on gold botkillers if you're looking for a specific kind.

Will you trade 2 keys for 5 refined? I currently have 15 refined and through idling will earn about 13 a week.
Also, 26 keys is very decent of you. As soon as I have 26 keys I will ask for a trade.

Well, a while back we had kind of an unofficial rule that TF2 trading discussions got spoilered, so people who weren't interested didn't have to read it all. I'd be more inclined to say go back to that, since the Steam thread is effectively also the TF2 thread.

At one point we put trading in the TF2 server thread actually.

We had one , but it died. TF2 interests wax and wane, depending on when it is updated.
But you do have a point, offering long lists of items to trade should be spoilered, I think. and responses to the trade should be conducted via PM, rather than spamming "I want, I want" here. I apologize for being part of the "I want, I want" crowd.
That said, I offer my farm to the services of the playground. Any normal weapon that drops I will sell to the playground at one scrap, no matter what the spreadsheet says. That includes any of the new weapons during each update. PM me with your requests and if there a lot for a certain weapon then I will do a waiting list rather than a bidding war.

For a game in which PC UI improvements were promised, I'm surprised and disappointed to see just how much more sluggish it is. My framerate drops when I open it! What other game does that?!

Re: [Steam]-y Thread XXX: Throwing titles out the window!
So I made a trade and got a Gold botkiller mini gun :smallbiggrin:
I have decided that I will slowly work up to the point where I have a strange on each class I like to play along with a few parts. This is a long term goal for now. (Since I am short on metal and stuff I want to trade).
