I googled doppler knives and saw a reddit thread where some guy said they bought one for 1000 and then sold it for 1500 but now they want it back but the price is over 2000
It’s extra hilarious to think about after just scrolling through current gun prices, you can arm your whole squad in the US with actual weapons for the prices of these skins.
Nahhhh this is just a CS thing hahaha. I actually got crazy lucky, kinda the opposite thing happened in TF2. One day an update made it so for very specific old crates (loot boxes that require a 2.5USD key to open) ONLY dropped Unusual Hats (1/100 chance normally I believe). These were very old crates from when crates were first released.
I had been playing for over a decade and had maybe 30? 40? of these crates. They shot up in price from .03USD (minimum price to list on store, worthless basically) to 10-15USD each. I was able to offload all of them before servers were down and it was fixed later in the day.
They made it so all the fancy hats you got out of them were not able to be traded or sold. I was so happy I saw the thread about the issue when I did!
Wow the free market was truly fixed by Valve cooperation there. Glad for your earnings. Rant: But I hate micro transactions and in-game-market-places, imo they can create an other level of addiction after the first stage.
Oh yeah, I stopped dabbling in gambling and MTX long before that happened, and that was like 6-7 years ago. I agree with you.
I never really like gambling, but I DID love opening crates in TF2. I had a Key Guy I met who I’d send money to over the intent and he’d give me keys for like 1USD each in bulk (instead of 2.5USD)
They HAD to be ill-gotten gains, but I was happy because I was young and dumb and full of money and lust for hats. I prolly bought like 300USD of crates, and sold everything for a total of maybe 2k. …but I was also playing TF2 for 40 hours a week or more back then, so the dollars per hour was very low. I still had fun, I suppose.

IT’S A FUCKING VIDEO GAME SKIN
CSGO was NFTs before NFTs were popular
The Ethereum guy literally developed it because he hoped than one day he would be able to put his WoW items on the blockchain.

At the beginning of 2020 I sold my TF2 hats for enough to get a free Valve Index.
congrats you avoided the crash in Stock prices (is tf2 just as badly affected as CS?)
