Looks like those :tradingcardfoil: will soon be 0.01.

 

[~Kinggi~]

This fucking thread, every time i enter i leave with mah monies gone

Least i got Dishonored now!

 

[dot]

I really want :derp: and from Binding of Isaac lol.

 

[Fare Godmace]

There is a emoticon going for 15€ right now.

... I want it.

 

[RionaaM]

Yeah, I managed to buy Dishonored and Fallout:NV right now! In your face, potential key shortage!

EDIT: I'm getting a "Content servers unreachable" error when trying to download Dishonored, anyone has any idea why that could be? Fallout started downloading without problems.

EDIT2: weird, it fixed itself. Guess Gabe is playing with the servers again.

Those are amazing.

 

[sibarraz]

I can't understand why Team Meat didn't released a BibleThump emoticon, yet offspring fling got franker freaking z, those emoticons would have sold for big money

I'm still waiting for some parody of kappa to get the triforce of stream monsters

 

[ChrisatShinyLoot]

shinyloot.com is still considered legit right? There's a few steam redeemable games on sale there at the moment.

Fortix 2 - $1.00
Caster - $2.50
SpaceChem - $4.99

I am a co-founder at ShinyLoot. If you have any trouble with anything, feel free to get in touch with me here.

That's what I'm waiting for. I want to trick people (myself) into believing I crafted a badge during the beta (no one cares).

 

[Smash88]

God damnit. Those tradingcardfoils are going for 35 cents. Whatever. 40 cents less than what I paid. I had extra steam wallet money for such a long time, no biggie.

 

[BrokenEchelon]

I'm glad I pushed most of my new cards today for $.40~, everything seems to be dropping into the $.20s now.

 

[Syphon Filter]

Now that cards are done,wonder what valve will work on next for the client.

 

[Timedog]

The Steam sales have always been on Thursdays, right? Meaning that it'll probably happen either tomorrow or next Thursday?

 

[PaleFolklore]

What's the difference between a game card and a trading card?

 

[alr1ght]

hopefully a new client

 

[dk_]

How can they sell when the market is borked? What a disaster for Valve.

 

[Buttonbasher]

The theory against it being tomorrow is that the Midweek Deal before the sales usually end at 10AM PST instead of the regular time (4PM PST) that we have on the current deal. So probably next week-ish.

Seems like its working now. Binding if Isaac cards are dropping like a rock.

 

[~Kinggi~]

THis whole card system sounds evil. GabeN evil.

I use steam to buy games and shit. Trading cards pffftt

 

[dk_]

I still can't see my listings.

It's free money to buy games and shit.

 

[OverBlood 3]

People are too quick to put their cards up cheaply. Drive those prices up I say.

 

[Jørdan]

I still can't see my listings.

I'm having the same issue although a few have been sold bizarrely.

 

[ieavei]

I still can't see my listings.

Same here. Refreshing to no avail.

 

[Unai]

Is there an updated list of games that drop cards?

 

[Dice]

No drops for 2 hours. I think if cards aren't selling, they won't be dropping.

 

[Kerub]

Still can't get anything sold, no matter the price I put the items at. Sigh.

 

[Jørdan]

Is there an updated list of games that drop cards?

Associated game list on the right

 

[Grief.exe]

I, for one, refuse to acknowledge the existence of our steam trading card overlords.

Why?

Either craft the badges for games you love.

Or sell the cards and buy more games.

 

[Unai]

Associated game list on the right

Thanks!

 

[phantomspiker]

Don't have the heart to sell these Psychonauts cards.

Damn you Gaben.

 

[Caerith]

No drops for 2 hours. I think if cards aren't selling, they won't be dropping.

I've been playing a lot of Binding of Isaac and not getting a lot of cards, but then again you need to be online to get cards and I have Charter (I only have a reliable connection on days that don't end in "y").

Booster packs, however, are tied to people crafting badges. Nobody crafts, nobody gets boosters.

 

[SourCinnamon]

Anyone knows if the new cards are Series 2?
Also, I just have lost 5 gabendollars trying to especulate on those :tradingcardfoil:. Damn.

 

[73V3N]

Me too haha

they should go up a little in the next few days.
there were 3900 listed but it's going down now.

 

[sibarraz]

I seriously doubt than those :tradingcardfoil: will be rare until some years pass, and still, thousands of people got that card, so in the end, I doubt that we will see them at a high price even in some years

 

[Stallion Free]

Which of those games can be redeemed on Steam?

I trust Grief so I bought a couple of them to activate on my Steam account. I'll let you know how it goes.

 

[73V3N]

Yeah but some people will want to keep them :hope:

 

[Caerith]

Anyone knows if the new cards are Series 2?

The ones for the games I have say Series 1.

I imagine that series incrementation will be on a game by game basis (e.g., Left 4 Dead 2 Series 2: Gnome, Gas Can, Keith) rather than some arbitrary universal rule (e.g., "all cards released in July are Series 2").

I bought 7 tradingcard and 2 tradingcardfoil emotes for about $2.50. I'm sure I will be able to at least make the money back. They can only get more rare.

 

[zychi]

so how do you get cards? idling? actually playing the games?

 

[SourCinnamon]

So now I have a long-term investment. I don't have the patience, though.

If that means multiple badges for single games (aside from the standard and foil split), I'd hate that.

Either. They drop randomly when you're in the required game. You can play if you want (which is absurd), or just leave it running.

sweet. i really don't feel like playing through the single player games again. hopefully i get all the bl2 ones when i play the new dlc

 

[Uraizen]

I really want :derp: and from Binding of Isaac lol.

Oh hey, I recognize you.

 

[Chronoja]

Question: The tf2 cards have 2 separate entities on the market, "Game cards" and "Trading cards" what, if any is the difference between these? I'm assuming that trading cards are the new, post beta form and "game" were from before? The "Game" version of these cards are retaining a higher value than the trading variant. Edit: the tf2 cards I have from the beta are trading, so they must be the old kind.

 

[AcceptableGhost]

I have gotten like 30 dollars from these cards so far (with no foils). I feel kind of weird about that fact.

One is called a game card and the other is called a trading card.

Spoiler

i have no idea

Hello person from the other forum!

 

[Caerith]

Aye, if they had several badges per game it would be too many badges, but if they don't do something then there's no sense making a second series of cards.

 

[Javaman]

God damnit. Those tradingcardfoils are going for 35 cents. Whatever. 40 cents less than what I paid. I had extra steam wallet money for such a long time, no biggie.

It doesn't help that they are ugly as shit.

I've got to say, it was a genius move by valve to make the booster packs. That way there are always new cards in the system to be sold. As it was before, crafting was a sink for cards and they can't be traded after crafting. Now there's the almost the same number of cards floating around creating even more money for them. (slightly less with each crafting)

 

[vazel]

The whole thing just seems superfluous. I don't want or need for the whole XP/achievement craze to extend itself to my steam profile.

I don't care about metagames either. But this metagame gave me free money which I used to buy 3 games(CS:GO, Rising Storm, and The Secret World).
