Hi guys,

I sold a lot of cards on Steam Community Market but lately I notice that some of the cards I put as the cheapest possible out there later on end up being the 4th or 5th in the list with others under me being the same price I originally put mine. I understand that if they are to be cheaper they should be under but why the hell does the market put other cards in front of me when they are put after mine and with the same price tag as mine.

Anyone had problems like this.. any logic behind this ?

I'm not 100% about this but I thought it had to do with the sellers name and sorting it alphabetically if the price is the same.

Currency matters, maybe they are slightly cheaper in another currency

Them.

Take a look at the price listings when you're not logged in. You get to see the prices in the seller's local currency.

I'm looking at a page that has prices of £0.07, €0,08 (x2), R$0,21, 3.19 py6., then a bunch of $0.11 USD
Logged in the same page has all but the top one priced up at £0.08 for me. The sellers selling their cards in Euros and US dollars are all grouped together.

Ugh, steam market. Apparently they cut me off from selling or buying because I hadn't bought anything on the Steam store for a year. Even though I already gave them tax information, they still think I'm a 'fraudulent buyer/seller'.

Eww.

I didn't quite understand that last line you wrote, but in case this helps, the market lists the latest market entries first. So even if you have the same price, the latest entry will be at the top of the list.

Just put the price at 1c (or local currency) cheaper. Usually sells quickly unless someone goes lower by a lot.

The only problem is id the item is worth nothing. Because then it will be listed for the lowest possible price which is 0.03€ by ~5000 people and when you add it for the same price, it will appear... it won't appear and never sell. No way... just give it to trashbot already.

I have problems with people dropping the prices drastically. 1 cents 2 cents is cool. Had 1 thing on the only page for that item for mid-range price of 2 euros. An hour later 3 guys posted 1 cent apart from 85 cents -.-

Oh yeah, price cutting by over 50% (instead of just a few cents). People are so clever -.-
