Price Calculation
We are trying to get the most accurate prices on the site by analysing the backpack.tf. Combined with the Market Rates we can have a stable & varied inventory.
Example
Let's say that you have a hat. The backpack.tf price of that hat is estimated to $50 and we are giving you 90% of the market price(the Market Rate). The mathematics part is going to look like this:
Unaccepted Items
- 'Too Low': Items worth a below 5 cents is rarely accepted.
- 'Overstock': We have too many of the specific item.
- 'Unaccepted': Usually means an unstable market value(Low sell volume / Jumping prices).
- 'Too High': We don't accept this item because the price is too high price.
Our cut
When trading items in the same type(key to key) the price will differ with 5-10%. We think this is fair, due to the fact that we are taking risk for every item we trade (values can crash). Also, we lay a lot of time on the bot and we are willing to get a little profit, since this is how trading works!
