Absurd Minds

Ive been getting into the trading side of CS:GO especially mid-tier knives and higher and also popular gun skins. Its kinda like a mini stock market with its own trends and predictions. If you want and Price checks, advice on a trade, or anything like that just post here and ill try to get to it. Post screen shots please if you have them.

_________________

I don't need price checks as I can easily look that up myself, but I could benefit from any meta Info of which items should trend higher, drop in price, etc.
Since Steam bedazzled me out of a lot of money when I first started playing with their online wallet scam, I have some money/items to play with which I'd like to grow a profit on if possible.
A couple immediate questions:
1) I want an AWP Asiimov FT. I was watching it around $57 waiting for it to drop to $50 before buying, but instead it's climbed closer to $75. Should I buy now or wait?
2) Where and with who should I be looking to trade with?

The AWP Asiimov will always be a big item, i really dont think it will drop below 60 or 55 anytime soon. If i where you i would buy one when it comes into the 65-70 range, especially now that Phoenix cases aren't dropping that often.

My favorite places to trade are http://csgolounge.com/ and http://www.reddit.com/r/globaloffensivetrade
csgolounge is by far the easiest to get started, just log in with your steam account and make a trade offer. the down side is that 80% of the people on that site are just people trying to make a quick buck so always reaserch what they are offering. there are also some shady links that people post from time to time like "screensh0t.com." but if your patient you will get some good offers.
r/globaloffensivetrade takes a little to get used to. when you make a trade thread you have to follow the rules of posting screenshots of the weapon your trading, have a buy out price (usually in keys), and following the correct formate. heres an example.

[H] Statrack FT Karambit Night [W] FN Bayonet Slaughter with good pattern

b/o for karambit is 180 keys

Guns from older cases TEND to grow in price when the case stops dropping as frequently. Bravo items are all going up in price, Phoenix items are starting to go up in price. I disagree with phobia about waiting until they are $65-$70 range. I don't think they'll go back down. Speaking of stock market, here's the price trend of the Awp Asiimov FT. Make sure you're checking a range somewhere after the initial spike of the case drop.

idk what your saying here, i was saying that the awp probably will never drop to where he wanted to but one but they will occasionally go for 70ish dollars as they were going for 73-75 as of today, someone will want a quick sell and put it up for a few dollars less then the lowest one and that he should grab that if he could because that will probably be the lowest it will go.

so essentially your agreeing with me and now i am reagreeing with myself and you

And to think yesterday Mutiny was complaining about uncrating a Gut Knife

My Opinion for the best look for the price is a field tested flip knife crimson web for like 130 bucks

I'm not pitching 130 on a video game knife maybe you can be my broker

I think you'll have to pay around 60 for the cheapest knife but phobia can correct me if I'm wrong.
