Summer Getaway Cards after sale

Nope.

no i don't think so...

I think the prices will rise.

This thread again? Sell them now spare us the philosophizing about it

Probably. People will keep wanting to craft those badges after the sale ends, since the cards will still be available to use. I expect the foils to get a bigger increase in price, simply because they're so rare and truly the first set of cards that are in short supply and not available to find anymore.

Despite what others say, yes they will.

As the supply to the market is cut, the supply will go down.
BUT, only after a long while will the supply go down enough to drive the price high.
And since the supply will NEVER be able to gain new cards anytime after the sale, the price will be forced to increase.

Look at the :tradingcardfoil: emoticon, it was limited and it's price still on the floor.

Eventually, but not by much. Rarity only gives it value if someone wants it. The supply will never go up, but its unlikely that the demand will ever increase either.

Assuming that the cards are unique to THIS sale event and they will never drop again afterwards? Then yes, they will increase in price. In one or two years they might even be worth 0.20 euros each.

there are 25k of each card, they can up little by little, as ppl will buy it.

No, they will turn into a pumpkin and be eaten by mice.

Yes they will rise!

Given that it has never been possible to earn a sale badge after the sale concluded, I'd say there's a good chance the cards will disappear or become invalid or something after the sale is over. But if they don't, then I imagine the cards might rise in price a little bit, but not for a while.

EDIT: Summer Getaway FAQ says the cards will still be fully valid after the sale is over, never mind.

They'll rise, but only by a very small amount. Think about the Vintage Pyro Goggles from TF2. They don't drop any more, yet they're still dirt cheap.

I thought It wold spike. I mean those new to steam might actually want the summer badge for some obscure purpose and will be willing to pay. just like how I still want the Demopan's hat despite the promotion being long done and over. I'd be willing to pay for that hat.

One does not simply....

Predict what Valve and the market will do.

assuming there's tons of people wanting to sell those cards right after the sale ends, price probably won't jump too high...

Today is the last day of the sale. And the prices has already doubled, from 0.1x to 0.2x
While there are over 35000 offers for each card, if you click and check the prices, you will find that only the first 1000 or less are serious sellers. Beyond that are crazy speculators asking for 400 usd per card.
The supply is actually much lower than it seems.
