I don't really care too much about any skins, so if you want to trade any of yours for any of mine, let me know:

p90 sand spray MW
Dualies contractor MW
Five-seven kami FN
SG 553 Wave spray FT
G3SG1 Demeter WW
Scar sand mesh FT


Also, if you want to just give your skins away, I would take your 57 kami and your dual berettas contractor.

Do you prefer the heavier wear versions? The 2 you said you'd take you already have lesser wear versions of. I prefer FN and MW, so I'll trade you my 5-7 Kami and Dullies Contractor for yours. Unless you are wanting multiple versions of the same gun, in which case you can just have those.

Ok, so the exterior conditions do not matter if you're trying to use the Trade Up contract, right?

Have you used a contract before? Does it make more sense to contract than to just try selling the weapons on the marketplace?

It depends on what skins you are putting in the contract. If they are cheap, then it is most likely a good investment

Well the only reason I have the skins I posted is because they sell for like one cent which isn't worth my time. So I was just going to try the trade up contract whenever I got enough.

Not true. If you want a skin and you are going to buy cheap skins to trade up, you'll loose money. Look at the prices of them

So are you saying that the trade up contracts are always a money losing proposition?

If you're buying skins to use the tradeup contract, you're gambling just like with the crates, but with less money. You're paying less money and have a small chance of earning a very very small amount of money.

If you're just using the tradeup contract without buying skins, then there's no money to be lost at all, because you're not paying money.

I was doing the math for some of the skins before, and I didn't find any that were worth it to purchase for the trade up. Even the $0.03 skins (the cheapest people can sell them for and make money), the skins that you could get from the tradeup, cost less than the $0.30 you would pay for 10 skins. I didn't look up EVERYTHING, so there might be one that COULD be worth it. But as far as I know, it's a money pit. Somebody would have thought of this much sooner and the market would have made up for it.

Yes, yes of course, that makes sense. It's not a money losing proposition if you're just trading up skins you were given while playing. Good point. So did you still want those 2 skins of mine? I'm not going to use them for gameplay, but I think I might as well try the trade up contract myself. However, if you need them to complete your contract ill just give them to you.

By the way, I put all my extra skins into the serialp0rt/Anubis smurf account (if you don't know what it is, check the clan steam page, it's one of the members) so you can check that inventory for skins you might want
