Before we start to participate in the csgo market, we have to understand a few things, among them:

• STICKERS' PERCENTAGE

• PRICES FALLING AND RISING

• HOW / WHEN TO INVEST

• IMPORTANT TIPS

@=======================================================================@

When we talk about stickers we can talk about stickers that cost a few cents as we can talk about stickers with the price of a house ... but does it mean that when we stick one on a gun it values ​​the gun with 100% of its value?

NO


The value that the sticker adds to the weapon where it was glued depends on its POSITION as well as on the SKIN VALUE where it was glued.

This value also depends on the number of EQUAL stickers glued to the same weapon, thus varying the percentage of each sticker.

Finally, StatTrak ™ technology greatly influences the valuation of a sticker, increasing its value, as it is a technology appreciated by collectors due to its rarity



Valuations usually work like this:

NOTE: check this link to see best stickers positions ---> here


1/2 EQUAL STICKERS:

• BEST POSITION --> about 5%

• SECOND/THIRD BEST POSITIONS --> about 3%

• WORST POSITION --> about 2/3%

3 EQUAL STICKERS:

• ALL POSITIONS --> about 5/8%

4 EQUAL STICKERS:

• ALL POSITIONS --> about 15/25%

SPECIAL CASES

If the stickers in question are 2014 back stickers or community stickers (like crown foil) the overpay can vary a lot depending on the following factors:

• Depends a lot on the float and the liquidity of the skin, and the percentage can reach the incredible 70%

• The age of the skin ... a kato14 sticker applied to a skin launched in 2019 will have a greater overpay than a craft similar to a skin in 2015, due to the decrease in the amount of that sticker and the corresponding valuation / increase in demand.
  The percentage of overpay can reach almost 95% on a "recent" skin!!!

Pay attention that community stickers (crown foil / flammable foil) or individual golden stickers on the wood of the AK-47 or on the scope of the AWP can get a 30/40% of this price due to rarity / amount of similar crafts that exist.

In some cases, even if the weapon has 1,2,3 or 4 stickers, due to skins' look or condition (ex. the skin is Field Tested) the worst positions can only reach 0.25% or 0.5% or in the best positions about 2.5% of the sticker value! NOTE: Always try to buy Factory News skins so u can use the rules i told u above :)

Influence of sticker price

Even with these percentage rules, you should at the end take into account the price of the skin where the stickers are attached, as it is quite different to have the same craft in two completely different skins in the price :D


 
 

@=======================================================================@

The skin market is like any market, being dependent on the fashions and "hypes" that appear and disappear in the community.


But from these principles we can "remove" two concepts:

• SUPPLY

• DEMAND

These concepts are related, respectively, to the quantity on the market and the way people look
for items, which is greater when the supply is small or when prices are reduced.


From this perception of how the market works we can move on to the topic of investment :)

 
 
@=======================================================================@

Currently, the CSGO community has increasingly opted for investments, which can be based on:

• STICKERS

• SKINS

• OPERATION DROPS

• COLLECTABLE ITEMS

• AGENTS (recent)

As you can see, the variety of investment methods is great, but these can vary among themselves due to the TIME factor, that is, the valuation of a certain item may take longer than that of other items.

With that in mind I will give some tips:

Stickers
In the case of stickers, you make purchase orders with a price lower than that of listing on the market, as this way you automatically earn some money, helping in the final valuation of the sticker.

Skins
In skins, you should opt for skins with better floats (without an exaggerated price) and skins with good stickers.

Other items
For other items in general, always try to buy in pre and pro festive seasons (Christmas, Easter) and, in the specific case of operations, wait for discounts!

Last but not least I have tips for getting, with a quick mind, to detect a good opportunity to make a profit in a certain situation!

• REGULARLY CHECK THE SKIN MARKET AND THIRD PARTY WEBSITES IN ORDER TO INCREASE THE CHANCE OF FINDING A GOOD PROFIT OPPORTUNITY

• IF YOU ARE VERY NEW IN THIS WORLD OF TRADES DON'T LOOK FOR SKINS WITH RARE STICKERS BECAUSE IF YOU HAVE INTENTIONS TO EXCHANGE ON EXTERNAL SITES, YOU CAN LOSE A LOT OF MONEY.

• IN AN OPERATION SITUATION OF CSGO OR IN A FESTIVE TIME YOU HAVE PATIENCE AND WAIT FOR DOWN PRICES OR DISCOUNTS!

• IF YOU WANT TO INVEST IN A SITUATION WITH THE PREVIOUS, SEEK TO SELL YOUR SKINS 1 TO 2 MONTHS BEFORE, SO THAT YOU DO NOT LOSE MONEY BY SELLING SKINS IN THIS "SPECIAL" TIME WHERE THE PRICES NORMALLY DOWN.
