Vintage Weapon = at least a scrap, maybe a polycount weapon
Paint = anywhere from 2 scrap to 2 reclaimed, depending on the color. White and Black are more exclusive than the rest
Tags = 1 to 2 reclaimed
Poly Weapon = ~1 reclaimed, but can go for more or less depending on supply and demand
Crates = sort of a wild card... 1 scrap is a base price, but it can jump if someone is in a key-buying mode

Hats:

Poly Hats = 1-3 other hats, depending on the person and the quality of the hats traded
Bill's Hat, Max's Head, Earbuds, and other sought after promotional hats will usually only be traded for multiple hats. People really, really want the exclusivity.
Vintage hats are generally worth more than non-vintage hats due to exclusivity, but exactly how much more is a thing of personal preference.
Crate hats, especially the Old Guadalajara and Napper's Respite are less valuable than most other hats because they are common. Some hats, such as the hatless ones, also fall into this category. You might get lucky trading one away, but most people aren't looking for them.
Shit hats: Alien Swarm hat, Ellis's Cap, Ghastly Gibbus. Not worth much more than a scrap. Make someone happier by giving them one of these for free.

Metal:
Metal is the big currency since trading came out. If you have metal, you can trade for pretty much anything.
Refined metal: used for trading for bulk items, a key, multiple paints or tags, or hats. People will trade a hat for anything from 1-3 refined depending on how much metal they want and what hat they are trading off.
Reclaimed metal: Paint, tag, and polycount weapon territory.
Scrap: ???

Those are the rough guidelines I follow, but they vary quite a bit depending on supply and demand.

I traded my medal, for another medal and three hats.

The panama is up for trade, not looking for anything particular, but I'm willing to take offers.


Re: [OFFICIAL TRADING THREAD] *generic announcement* - Versus - 11-22-2010

what level/number was your medal


Re: [OFFICIAL TRADING THREAD] *generic announcement* - Hobospartan - 11-22-2010

My old one was 2210, new one is 7278.  The guy I traded said he wanted a medal from another guy, since that one's number is his dead sister's birthday, but the other guy would only trade it for my medal since mine was his birthday, or something.  The levels don't matter to me, I still have a medal, and got some hats out of the deal.

What's the general price for a Big Kill? I'm looking to complete my spy customization and make him into Private Spy: Detective for Hire.

An arm and a leg.

If you really want one, you had better be willing to dish out a couple of hats or piles of metal or both... Most people who have one don't want to trade it away, and those who do often have ridiculous asking prices in the hopes that some idiot will bite.

However, you might get lucky if you're patient.

message me on steam


Re: [OFFICIAL TRADING THREAD] *generic announcement* - Gasman - 11-28-2010

Have bombing run and vintage hotrod for trading. looking for (preferably) 2-3 vintage hats for the hotrod, unless it's gone down in value since last time I've checked and I've wasted the entire evening trying to trade it off, and 2 refined or so for the bombing run unless that's deflated in value as well and I've wasted my metal on a crap hat. God I'm terrible at hustlin'.


Re: [OFFICIAL TRADING THREAD] *generic announcement* - Turtle - 11-30-2010

Did you just say 2 refined for a bombing run

Are you serious


Re: [OFFICIAL TRADING THREAD] *generic announcement* - Didzo - 12-06-2010

I have a bunch of vintage weapons I'm looking to get rid of.

I'd prefer to get some cold, hard metal in exchange, but alternate offers will be accepted.

Oh, and I still have a bunch of hats and paint and stuff.



Re: [OFFICIAL TRADING THREAD] *generic announcement* - Didzo - 12-08-2010

This all happened within 3 minutes yesterday:

Someone wants my hound dog and offers a hat, 2 refined, and some paint for it. I say no thanks since mine is vintage.

He leaves, and someone offers a nv. hound dog for 2 refined. I jump on the offer.

I add the guy who traded me first to my friend list, he accepts, and all of a sudden I get the same offer as he gave me before.

i'm thinking about selling my unusuals for cash, since i think i could get at least $150 for my whoopee cap after looking at some forums where people are buying/selling shit


Re: [OFFICIAL TRADING THREAD] *generic announcement* - Hobospartan - 12-08-2010

You don't really need the money do you?  May as well keep them


Re: [OFFICIAL TRADING THREAD] *generic announcement* - EarthlingJohn - 12-08-2010

Hobo, since you gave me your paint, i promised a picture, then a 3d model
this is an unfinished blend

It is nearing completion, though i doubt it took you 2-3 hours of work to get your paint.

It's up to you. If you really don't care that much, you could sell it for cash and then spend that cash on more keys. Either trade those keys for a refined each or a hat, or just keep unboxing.
