Every item sold, has a small percentage taken off, and given to Valve, and the creator(s) of the game. But with this, Valve also made a large amount of money. The fact that people could buy and sell items for money without much hassle influenced a mass amount of steam money being sold and gained. Some of the more popular stranges have since then retained their price, but it did impact the market a great deal. The steam market doesn’t have as much as an impact on the economy like that, but when the steam market first came out, strange items dropped in price significantly. This sold price into the pricing for the item to lower its overall value. They will commonly buy items for real world money with a lower price than the item sells for. Many people think that paypal and the Steam community market influence the pricing of Tf2 items in a negative way. Store for $2.50 each, people are willing to sell keys from $1.80-$2.00, possibly because they have so many of them, or more commonly, they just want the money. Even though keys sell in the Steam Community Market and Mann Co. By using the previously mentioned method, buy low sell high, works much better in this case, as it is common to buy $60 priced items at $40-$50, quite easy to make profit off of such frequently reacquiring deals. Since it is the most widely used currency for everyone in the world, it is quite possible to make huge profits by doing just that. In fact, it can be profitable by doing this. But it doesn’t stop anyone from using real world funds for virtual hats. For years trading has been a big part for hundreds of thousands of people. But then again, Valve is like a goblin, greedy and loving their money, so who knows if it’ll happen.īut Valve isn’t the only one making money. This theory is a win-win for Valve and the economy. There would then be less refined metal in circulation, and people would spend more time playing Tf2 to use up their ToDT. Store for 1 USD, it means refined metal would stay at 0.25 cents, and keys would stay at around 12 refined metal, which is better than it rising to 17 refined and higher. Since Tour of Duty Tickets (ToDT for short) are on the Mann Co. A common theory spoken on many threads, is to make the Tour of Duty Ticket, craftable for 4 refined. To better explain what he said, make worthy items, craftable. "I'd encourage players to craft hats, making refined have more value would settle the economy,” says Jigron. And if you’re thinking “Hey, I did do something to change the market,” then why are keys still rising in price? The Tf2 community hasn’t done much to stop key price increase and market crash in general. Eager for profit and doing nothing to stop market crash, even if they say they want it changed. But outside of currency, what's the use of them?Īccording to Jigron, an avid trader with opinions about the economy, he “feels the main reason keys are rising in price, is because people are greedy.” And he’s right. Since then, keys have gone up in price to seventeen refined metal and higher. Four years ago, keys sold 2.66 refined each. For these past four years, the market had many ups and downs, with new items, creating came, and more hype caused unreasonable price jumps. Trading, brought prices, which created an economy, bringing more hats. The Mannconomy update in 2010, changed a great deal about the game, one thing being the ability to trade. Until 2010, only few cosmetics were available and people played the game for the fun of it. Team Fortress 2, or more commonly known as Tf2, is a first person shooter video game created by Valve in 2007.
