Lets see if you can make a bit of money for the summersale with that.
Buying the guarded wallpaper, getting 100 gems, buying an agarest booster and then selling the cards.
Edit: The booster creator is temporarily unavailable. Please try again later.

Sell it, and use the money to buy cheap backgrounds, if you really want to get gems.
That's worth $0.39, and 330 gems. Say you sell it at around that price, get about $0.35 or so. You can now buy
That's only if you care about gems, though.

Gentlemen, we can rebuild it. We have the capability to make the world's first enhanced store. Steam will be that store. Better than it was before.
Seems based on the game, which is a little disappointing considering none of my Unearthed Steam paraphernalia is worth more than 10 gems each, even the "rare" stuff.

What are the most.... gemspensive items that can be bought for 3 cents?

All of my CS:GO stuff turned into 100 gems each - even the shitty $0.03 profile backgrounds - though they might have gone up in price already.

I guess it's time to pull all the foils I have on the market and trade those in for gems.
New Payday 2 DLC and character coming (female heister) on December 16th.
Pretty cool teaser trailer for it too.

Not having an option to filter by maximum gems is pretty....Valve.
I would like to play it with you, so that I can try it out before the community dies.
Probably Metal Gear Solid 3, I'm not sure. It have been a while.
Seems silly that it's a "every 45 minutes" thing but the first batch is going to sit there for the next four days before the auctions actually go live.
It sounds like you get more gems for items you have the badge for, can anyone confirm that is true?
Edit: Tested myself, doesn't actually seem to make a difference.

This makes sense, I was wondering why I was getting a shitload of emails of my .01 items selling like hotcakes.

Top bidder? Useless. There are people with more cards to spare than millions of people on Steam, so they would win most of the time.
So the gist is you convert inventory items you don't want into gems, and you use those gems to either:
a) bid on games
b) create booster packs
Seems like the way to game the system is buy cheap items like backgrounds or emoticons, convert them to gems, convert to booster packs, then sell the packs/cards.
Of course, everyone's going to do that and card prices are going to drop.

Looks like the booster creator is already dead, I'm guess they jack the cost of using it waaaaay up before it comes back.
Wonder how quickly the 3 cent 100 gem items will disappear from the market. There seems like a lot of them right now, but there's so many Steam users...

Nothing. Did the same and now I am waiting for the booster creator to get back online.

This is a smart way for Valve to flush out the market, maybe get rid of all those dumb winter sale 2013 cards.

What happens if I put my gems into a sack?
you get a sack of 1000 gems or something, you can sell it or unpack it
derExperte

You can sell the sack on the market.
ignore them and just buy what u want at low prices like you said
Don't let anyone kick your sack?
And sacks are even cheaper and less work than separate backgrounds. Market logic.
