Come one come all to the Giant in the Playground Team Fortress 2 Trade Thread! Have metal and need a hat or two? Or perhaps you want to swap some strange items? Here is the place to do it! Just put what you have here, and what you are looking for!
Things you may not be aware of: Even though this is a TF2 trade thread, you can trade many things through Steam! Games such as Dota and Super Monday Night Combat support Steam Trades, and games as well can be traded.
Helpful links to those new to the item trade scene:
The Spreadsheet - a helpful site that gives a rough estimate of the average price an item is selling for.
Backpack.tf - another site for giving prices on items. Remember with the all spreadsheets: these are the average prices, so people may be buying and selling for more or less. Also, both sites are fallible, so do not depend on just one site to get your prices!
TF2 Outpost - a trade site, log in through steam and trade with people around the world!
TF2 Warehouse - a site dedicated to trading with bots. Basically, they keep a store of items, you trade your items in to the bots for points, and spend your points on what you want. Do be warned, they take a cut on your item's worth when you trade to them. Good for unloading stuff fast.
Helpful things to know:
-1 Scrap Metal is made from 2 Weapons of the same class
-3 Scrap = 1 Reclaimed Metal
-3 Reclaimed = 1 Refined
-Depending on where you look, a Key is worth about 2.55-2.66 Refined.
What are all those decimals you ask? Well, you are in luck, because Old Man Kurgan is in an answering mood! A refined is just "1", or most will say "I will pay a refined for this", or "2 refined for this" and so on.
A Scrap is noted as .11, as 9 Scrap = 1 Refined. Using this formula, 1 Reclaimed [which is made out of 3 Scrap] is the .33.
As such, if someone says to you "I'll give you .33 for this", they are saying "I'll give you a Reclaimed". For a few more examples, .44 would be 1 Reclaimed and 1 Scrap, and 2.66 would be 2 Refined and 2 Reclaimed.
Hope that helps, or at least doesn't confuse you even more!
And Now a Word From Our Gentlemanly Friend Pyro
On the Cleanliness of Your Items:
When someone says they have a "Dirty" item, it means that it was purchased from the Mann Co. Store, and is thus unusable in crafting. On the flip side, a "Clean" item is NOT from the store, and originates from crates, item drops, or crafting.
Clean items are usually worth more than their dirty counterparts.
Important Note

Keep these rules in mind whenever trading on these forums!
If I am missing anything, or you want anything else in the opening post, let me know!
Silver Botkiller Flamethrower up for trade. Accepting a key (or equivalent amount of metal) or a different Silver Botkiller. Friend me and message me through Steam if you want it. A link to my steam profile is in my signature.
Also, I have a page + of crates, ranging from #32 to #47, except for the special crates (aka, the Pyro, Fall, or Salvaged crates.) I'm giving them at a 4 crates to 1 weapon exchange rate, regardless of actual pricing on spreadsheets. If you have any particular preference as to what crates you want, ask me, not only to check if I actually have it, and also otherwise I would just give random crates.
So... up for trade: 2 Refined, Soldier's Stash (~1.33 Ref), Janissary Ketche (Unique, ~1.33 Ref), Secondary slot token, several duplicate weapons, lots of crates
Looking for:
Samur-Eye, One Man Army, Mann Up tickets, Tin-1000 (willing to offer Stealth Steeler in/as part of exchange), Texas Ten Gallon, Buckaroos Hat, Hotrod, Pip-Boy, Strange Minigun, Grenade Launcher, Stickybomb Launcher, or Natascha

Interested in those crate 42s, gonna add you momentarily.
Stuff for trade; Uncraftable Tyrant's Helm: 1 Refined, Futankhamun 1.44 refined, steel toed stompers 1.44 refined, Name Tag 1.11 refined
Weapons I'll trade any of the following for 1 scrap; Solemn Vow, Direct hit, Brass Beast, Razorback, Disciplinary Action, Family Business, Winger, Pretty Boy's Pocket Pistol, Your Eternal Reward, Short Circuit
Stuff I'm looking for; Rocket Jumper, Mann-up Mode tickets, Metal. I also would like a Team Captain, but I'm nowhere near to being able to afford it yet.
NOTE: At this point, I only have .88 refined, so I can't make much change at this point. Also, you might want to add that Dirty means "Bought from the Steam Store, and thus not usable in crafting" to the OP, Kurgan.
Stuff I'm looking for; I'd like to exchange my strange botkiller sniper rifle (rust) for another rust botkiller weapon in a class I'm more competant in, and I'm looking for a couple of weapons; Darwin's Danger Shield, Crusader's Crossbow, Rocket Jumper, Huo-long heater, and the Third degree.
I have an Extra Rocket Jumper and Danger Shield laying around. How about those two plus .88 Refined for the Name Tag.
@Geno: I actually managed to pick up the Danger shield somewhere else. I'm fine with just .88 refined and the rocket jumper for the name tag. Just add me and send me a message. I'll probably be on this afternoon.

It looks like you're missing the vintage shortstop as well.
I'd price it at about 35 keys. I might be interested in buying it, once I have 35 keys in stock. But that'll take a while.
Vintage shortstop is a glich thing, there's only like one, and it doesn't count.(This comes from like ten minutes of looking around, if you can provide proof otherise please tell)
Would anyone be interested in some stranges in exchange for the L4D Bundle? We can discuss details over Steam.
Bringing this over here.

All those crates, most duplicate weapons, and the nonvintage Procedure Mask and Festivizer are for trade. I'll take metal, weapons I don't have, and some cosmetic gear, especially the Novelty Muttonchops, Modest Pile of Hat, and Bearded Bombardier. I'll also take most cosmetic gear from Super Monday Night Combat.

Dat triclops. So angry it's not tradable for some inexplicable reason.
Just got the new Wizards never Prosper achievenment. Took about an hour before we got it right, was too sick of it to work on the island one...

So I have some things in my backpack I'm willing to trade. Here it is, see anything of value than friend me on Steam. Things I'm looking to get rid of are one of my ze goggles, one each of the foppish physician and distinguished rogue, and the salty dog. Just about anything else is negotiable.
If you're ever in a situation where you can't survive, go for the broke and fill all of creation with chickens. Just imagine the reaction of people halfway around the world when every square inch of space in their world is suddenly and completely full of chickens.

I didn't even do the 10 minutes of looking around, so I'm sure you're right.
It's not hard to get. It's a cross promotion from a F2P game that's enough fun that I dropped TF2 and LoL for it for months.
Eeh, depends on if you like third-person shooters. It's not quite my cup of tea, and so when I got the hat for reaching lvl 20, I took it and ran.
Though the Triclops is very snazzy.
I have an Exorcism potion that I'm not interested in. I'd like to trade it 1:1 for any other potion or voodoo item. Edit: Willing to negotiate some metal as well if it’s Sentry Pumpkins or Gourd Grenades.

That third person is exactly the reason I don't want to do it.
