Do I sell

I bought the original statue for $400 expecting the hat to sell for more

hat went from 700 to 1000

trying to guess if itll go highet

He's probably asking if it's going to go up dumb wannabe boomer

He sold?

>mount
Did dota add in mounts or something or is this just a cosmetic for potm/kotl or smth

yea i need to clear that unit

hold, dumb retard. it's called artificial scarsicity

two year hold so far

risk is of dota becoming a dedgaem and nobody wanting the hat

but this hat can run!

Only gonna go up in price, but 1000 euros is always nice. What would you even spend it on? Itd have to be in Steam and you'll lose another percentage converting it to real currency

>he thinks money locked behind a DRM has intrinsic value

Mirana probably

>he thinks you cant convert steam wallet and ingame items into real money by dealing with traders

i spend about 350-400 a year so itll cover me for two years of games

they why not do that in the first place? steam marketplace is fucking bullshit and has no sway when it comes to pricing rare and high value items.
nothing is solid until you see that $1000 in your PayPal acct.

you lose like 20% but you can easily convert it in real money

>you lose like 20% but you can easily convert it in real money
now say that one more time

no reason to convert to cash if you expect to spend that amount on steam going forward

Fuck yes

between a fucking steam wallet vs hard cash where i can shop around on other platforms where i can get games dirt cheaper than on steam platform you fucking bet i am gonna go for the cash 100% of the time user.

>leave absurdly expensive item on the market which will auto sell
>use funds to buy keys off the market
>sell those keys in different amounts to different traders for PayPal

Cost of business faggot

why pay the transaction fee if, over the next X years, you're just gonna put the money back in Steam to buy games anyway

it's easy, just like selling it on the steam market, except it's 20% fee instead of 15%

>DotA 2's still popular
jesus christ, last time I played it was like 2012.

>imagine needing to overcomplicate shit just to get 1000 in the bank
no, really, if you want to avoid fees just have them send transactions broken down into smaller dollar amounts. if you are gonna sell to someone who wants it he'll have the cash to cover, no need to convert into other items and waste time.

>exchanging currency should be free

Fuck off with this bs faggots. If you want to trade for free go meet up in person. Oh wait... that costs time and gas

No one but me realizes this is a Dave Chapelle reference.

Which is harder to find

>one person who wants to spend 1000 euros on one item
>a bunch of people who want to buy a variable amount of keys (which are universally accepted)

It's not surprising really.
Free game, huge esports scene, can be played on toasters.
It's also a pretty good game overall

again, it goes back to his original question - cash it out now and deal with the bullshit or wait and find someone who wants to pay for it outright. with an item like that in a shit game id just have it cashed out right now with items. just all relative to how much bs you wanna deal with.

>money you get is locked onto Steam so you can't cash out anyway
lol

the original mirana statue was 400 so trading 400usd for 1k steambux is pretty good

Nibba what?

His question was should he list his item now or wait for it to potentially go further in price.

Steam market is no bs, you just wait. I would hold into it because its only going to go up. Dota 2 isn't going anywhere

WEW

I knew I should have traded the gloves for a spare hat or scarf at some point when they were 1:1 but its still insane

If you need steambux I guess.

isnt dota losing like 25% of its players each year

Yes, sell it. I had a rare as fuck courier worth about 500, but now it's around 80 bucks. Definitely sell it.

Really? So it's like selling a used item at a pawn shop and instead of getting cash you get a card with good boy points on it to buy useless shit at that pawn shop lmao

They gained a lot again thanks to autochess.

i buy enough new games on steam to need the steambux

How do you even get these? The most "expensive" thing i ever sold on market was some Catherine wallpaper

>Getting $850 that can only be used on Steam
OH NO NO NO NO

Actually if they were losing 25% annually I would sell that item asap instead of holding onto it.. autochess isn't going to keep players permanently

The Valve VR headset comes out in a few months, he can sell that shit for 5% to 10% under retail and cash out at a high margin.

I've done this steam money faggotry before, there are ways around it.

That's pretty clever.
I used dota 2 beta-invites to trade for games of $30 value. It was cool.

as long as TI can fill an arena the game is fine

>as long as there are chink whales the game is fine
ftfy

are the bug men buying the alpine stalker stuff or something? 2 grand is fucking insane

>1000 euro worth of steam money
it's fucking nothing

YES

>risk
oh user you are adorable but we are long past the point of dota 2 being dead. i mean it died for me when they changed the menu interface. i dont even remember when that was. a lifetime ago.

>ynr ti9 will be in fucking china
I don't play dota 2 since 2015, but i always what the ti. I'm not watching this year.

>but i always the watch
Fix'd.

I played it for the first time in years the other day. I was immediately overwhelmed by the fact that even casual play had become tournament play and I was given what felt like 5 secs to ban and choose my own hero where you used to have at least a couple of minutes.

That discouraged me from getting into it again.

>do i sell a virtual fucking item that has zero value in my life for money which would actually let me buy shit that makes a difference
HMMMMMM

Nigger

>1k in steambucks

OP is a baller

yes and buy a steam index vr headsetTM

>The moment you realize that people spend 1000 dollars on digital micro transactions
We are doomed.

since when does dota have mounts?
