So just wanted to come on rant quick...

i must ask, how are people so dumb as they are currently paying 2.57 USD for a key in the marketplace when in the store they are 2.49?

 

[Sharkey]

Because people don't care about 8 cents?

How hard is it to open TF2 and buy the key there?

 

[Thorin Oakenshield]

Being able to trade it immediately, probably. Or at least that's the explanation I've heard.

But couldn't you just buy it immediately in the store rather than waste time looking for a good trade?

Things don't usually happen in that order. It's
>See great deal while randomly browsing
>Quick run to get keys
>Oh$**%
>Have to wait days to trade
>Run to market
>Instantly tradeable.
If you want to unbox, buy from the store. For the fast git-er-done-now deals, you bite the bullet and pay the extra 8 cents.

Didn't think of that...

Also, seems the market is down as I can't sell things.

Only people with new-ish accounts have to wait to trade things bought from the store.

8 cents is 8 cents

Any time you chance payment method as well.

8 cents is 8 cents

I'd rather pay the 8 cents and introduce new keys to the market.

I've always wondered that, especially with how high CS:GO keys has been, but I don't complain :-P

Valve still eats like 89% of the price it's sold for anyway, so it's not that great of a deal.
