Oh, good.
Well, I feel sorry for you, but at least the game is slightly less rigged now.

If you play this smart, there is so much to be gained from these boosters.
Did you manage to buy as many boosters as possible before hand?

How do you craft packs?
Great, I don't even have enough gems to craft a booster pack. I have to sell cards to get enough gems to craft more cards.
Yeah, looks like it.

Unfortunately I wasn't as efficient as I should've been, when I tried to get boosters a few minutes after it was possible again Steam threw an error at me and after that the page was gone. Maybe they prevented glitchers to craft boosters?
I only managed to sell a bunch of Sacks of Gems but the prices went down fast. Not sure if my gems would've been safe if I created more sacks though and 'parked' them on the market. Probably not.

Yeah for sure, just got a $.65 Deadly Premonition foil for 667 gems, that translates to about 4000 or 5000 gems on the marketplace.

How many gems for a booster?
Damn, you can only build one booster pack per 24 hours...
and you can build booster packs for F2P games
Varies. 600-1000 is what I'm seeing mostly

Depends on the game.
For example: Race The Sun is 1k, Papers, Please is 750, Binding of Isaac is 667.

Thanks guys, now to think how to profit from all of this.
Everyone's waiting to craft that shit brah
Now all I need is someone to gift me sakura spirit
Just think of all the cards i can sell
Card prices are going to crash and crash hard.
A sack of gems costs $.04. For $.04, you can get a booster pack, since 1000 gems can get you roughly every booster. Why would anyone pay more when they could just craft their own booster for 1000 gems? Granted, the limit 1 will make things slightly better but still, they'll add up.

The best part is it's per 24 hours per game, too.
Boosters as far as the eye can see.

Is it even possible to buy gems in the market right now? No order is being processed, the bots are probably running rampant and unruled there.
Oh shit, I didn't think of this. Time to buy some gems and get some cheap booster packs.
I bought it, unpacked it, put the cards on sale but apparently they're just ghost cards since it says there are no listings
1000 gems to the trash woo

Is there any work around for downloading demo's if you already own the full game? I want to try the Evil Within demo, but I'm tied ot a Family Sharing account that owns the full thing.
I just want to see how it runs without downloading the full 31 gigs, if that's possible.

wow. I am offline for a couple hours and already the dynamics of the market have been altered drastically.
I am too old for this. just wrapped my head around cards and now gems?
with cards at first I thought it'd be an easy way to get some games for "free". after some months I now see that it is easy for "rich" folks, hah. :/
gems, auctions.. man I can't keep up with you young folks and your constant new stuff -_-
also, for those lost souls wondering about lack of capitalization. i am using my phone as a keyboard to make no typing noise.
like lemmings running to their demise.

wow. reminds of never alone which just came out.
but no, I haven't played it.

Fascinating how the gems have taken almost all focus, right?

Not going to bother on bidding for games, the most obscure on my wishlist is already close to my current gem count. Boosters for cards I want to craft all the way.
