Updating a 1/1 with recent sales, should be pretty straightforward.


-Three sales in the last month, no others since the start of July

-One hard-to-track sale with an outdated hat, then two almost-completely pure sales used to set the range


The hat: http://backpack.tf/item/1648846719


Sale 1, Sept. 23: ???

Only sale I can't verify personally since the beginning of July, and hard to track, but appears to have involved an Orbiting Fire Backwards Ballcap (outdated, 20.5) and some keys? Looks like not all items were registered in all the backpacks they passed through.

20 of those keys were bought through paypal ( http://backpack.tf/trust/76561198053252981 ) and definitely not involved. No sign from histories of the others being part of it, but looks like several trades in a day or two range without all being detected here. Sorting post-sale by time, it looks like there were 11 associated with the ballcap, which would put it near the suggestion range. May be helpful for updating the 5-month-old price on the ballcap if it can be nailed down?


Sale 2, Sept. 24: 30 keys

Bought it for 29 keys + Rancho + purple Vive Le France, rounding to 30

The b/o was 30, listed on backpack.tf I think?


Sale 3, Oct. 7: 40 keys

Sold for 40 pure

The b/o was 40, honestly wasn't expecting it to move that quickly since I bought the hat to keep myself, but the b/o is the b/o.


Summary: Second two sales are obvious. First sale is for an outdated hat, is difficult to track, is likely to end up somewhere not too far from the range here, and probably superseded by the more recent pure sales. It does look like it gives a little support to the low end, though, just reinforcing that the second sale wasn't a quicksale (despite the fact that I grabbed it within a day of listing). Just happened to be the effect I was looking for, on one of the three or four hats I was looking for, at a reasonable price.


Guy who bought it from me said it's a present, so don't be too shocked if it changes hands shortly for what looks like nothing.
