First time i've seen this.... What price should I set??

I've been there couple of times myself, one foil never sold, it's worth something like 0.10 now (><)
Another I sold for ~ 0.50, I think (went for 5€, more foils appeared, had to go even lower, etc.) It depends on a game mostly, but being first haven't worked for me so far any better than being last

Welp after 3 years of trading - It finally happened - I got scammed. By a russian of all.

It was my first big CS:GO trade (literally 0 experience in CS:GO trading) so I [being used to dota 2/tf2 trading] totally forgot to check for wear. He trade offered me a factory new item and then added me to trade later, swapping the same item out for a field tested one.

Lost ~80-100$ right there. Welp you live and learn i guess, won't be making that mistake again.

Email popped up "You have sold an item on the Community Market"

So soon?!

An item you listed in the Community Market has been sold to Templar Assassin Lanaya. Your Steam Wallet has been credited 0.07 USD.

Thanks Steam (7 cents is better than nothing!)

Jeez, Hitman Absolution loves to throw achievements at you, I'm only 7hrs in and I've already gotten 47% of all the achievements, if all the achievements are this easy it may become another game to add to my 100% completion pile.

It's also my first Hitman game I've played for any major extent of time, and I'm really enjoying it, I hear Blood Money is the best of the hitman series though so I'll be sure to give that a shot after I finish Absolution(Currently on Part 2, just finished shaving lenny)

It's pretty easy to 100% achievement wise. The only irritation I had was playing on hard which broke the disguise system.

Can't you ask Valve to reverse the trade if it was two-way? Also if you used PayPal you can always chargeback.

Wasn't paypal, was a straight up items for items trade. I'm going to put in a ticket and see if valve will reverse it. But from what I've heard it's pretty rare for valve to do that unless you are hacked.

I think they will reverse item trades, it's paypal transactions that they can't reverse.

Well, in that case there's a higher chance that you'll get your items back. From what I've heard Valve usually does it if the scammer is frequently reported. Maybe you should also file a report on Steamrep and other sites but I guess you already know what to do

It becomes almost completely useless. On normal and easy you aren't detected after about 3 seconds or while being within 30 feet of enemies.

I think you are out of luck since you still have the items. If it were games that later get revoked due to chargebacks you will a better luck

Just means that people were buying the bundle for some other game and they happened to get bundled with the real bundle seller. These indies that boast having big sales when included in a bundle just come off as leeches.

Always funny when devs boast about sales...when we're talking about a bundle.
Click to expand...

Whoa, way to misinterpret that. This is what they tweeted right afterwards
Its a much cheaper price for the game and not everyone bought it for Ether but the more people that have access to our games the better.

It wasn't boasting, it was just an interesting number..

Just a shot in the dark but I'd double check the routers firewall first thing.
Click to expand...

If only the router was hooked up to my computer. It's my landlord's router and it's in the house next door to mine's (had to buy a wifi adapter and a range extender) the wifi is included with my rent. :) I will figure out if I can get my own router or if the router's firewall can be checked for me by him/with my computer.

On the chance that valve actually does grow a heart, gonna keep the items and cross my fingers for a swift response. Meanwhile if you guys wanna report the guy, I've heard that helps speed up cases sometimes :3.

They are also quite annoying in dota with their open mics and screaming 'suka' and 'fuk ur moder'.

From Siliconera:

Guilty Gear Xrd SIGN has only been announced for PlayStation 3 and PlayStation 4, but what about PC? A representative from Arc System Works fielded this question, "We have BlazBlue on PC and also on Steam. What we&#8217;re doing is testing how it works out and depending on how it goes we could consider it, but we can&#8217;t give you an answer at the moment."

It pisses me off that OG BlazBlue with NO NETCODE is their test for Steam.

The Steam version of BlazBlue has a beta branch, but it's never been fiddled with. Whatever plans Arc had to update the game -- Steamworks-based MP, undoubtedly -- fell to the wayside, apparently.
