Hello. I bought a few csgo keys hoping i could sell them and pay some of my college fees. How should i proceed?
Got OPskins and lootmarket tabs opened. What now?
Should i sell them directly and lose more than 20% of their value? (Their 10% fee and their scummy $ from Euro convertion) or buy a CSGO item thats more valuable from a guy from the internet ?

Ask yourself is it worth it?

If you need the money that bad, I'd do it.
If not.. I would not.

Wait... You wanted to make a profit on buying those keys? Why didn't you just use the money directly to pay the fees? Don't fall into the trap of CSGO. Your money is most likely not coming back unless you take a loss or invest way too much until you make a profit, where it basically is meaningless.

I forgot about Steam funds. Well in this case sell them via OPskins. You're not really making a loss since you never invested real money. :D
And btw if you live in a ROW region with regional low prices like NZ or CND, you could buy games for PayPal.

well yah, but through OPskins i'd get $1.98 per key, i would sell them faster, but through lootmarket i'd make around $2.01, sell them probably slower, BUT they got a thing that lowers their fee the more you sell. I'd probably lower it somewhere around 8% from 10%.

3 cents, though. I mean, if you had 100 keys and counting, that would add up, but if you want to make a quick buck, does it matter? And just think about it. You got the money for basically nothing. If you could turn this is into actual currency, would you care about a 3 cent loss? It's like finding money on the ground and you leave a dollar, because you think that you can find more if you just keep walking.

"Its not about the money" its about the principle. They ask for a 10% fee but somehow force the user into lowering the price of his item even more. The key is 2.20 Euros and they make you sell it for 1,87. Fck. So thats a 15% fee. And there's paypal with another 3% fee, and there's your lovely Bank with another 5% fee or whatever.
From spending 90 euros on these keys i get around 70.
20 euros are A HELL LOT OF MONEY FOR ME GOD DAMN IT ;_; I could eat 2 weeks with those money and i would be starving at all lol.
Hell, my mom gives me about 10 euros weekly, and i spent somewere around 2-3 euros /week. I save them a lot.

Go to the trade section, find someone who is not a scammer and sell the keys at 1,85 euro/1,95$ each.

I believe you can trade keys for skins on cs.money website, ATTENTION! If you have 10 keys, $2,50 each, and you trade for a skin worth $24, your 1$ leftover will just disappear as if u traded with a person and overpaid! and then sell the skins on OP or lootmarket.
And if you search well, you can even find good deals where you almost don't lose value or even get some extra, just choose the skin or skins you want to trade with bot for and find the lowest price of skin on OP/LM.

rather than what u said about cs.money i could find a guy that has an item and make him overpay for my keys. But there kicks in the quality of the item. It could be Minimal Wear, but it could look like shit, and some other Minimal wear that could look like a Factory New. and so on. All about dem floats baby.
