This suggestion was marked as bad evidence and closed by [GIRL] A Delicious Cashew™.

There should always be enough evidence to back up the new proposed value. However, it appears that the evidence is not strong enough, or cherry-picked in a way that does not represent the actual market value of the item. Therefore, this suggestion has been closed.

This is my second suggestion and I hope it passes too as the first one.


I think the hype for this weapon is gone now. And yes, it's just another weapon that drops. It can regularly be found on scrapbanking sites, I saw like 40 rescue rangers on scrapwh.com yesterday.


Anyway, here's some proof for unsolds at 1 scrap (hopefully it's enough):

    Yea.... you are going to need sellers for 0.05.

      The proof for sellers are the scrapbanking websites. Like I said in my previous suggestion, I doubt anyone can show sellers at 0.05 ref for any weapon. 99% of the people sell weapons for 1 scrap each. And yet their backpack.tf price is 0.05 ref.

        Unfortunately for you, people of the bp.tf community don't take bots as strong proof. You could easily go to scrap.tf or scrapwharehouse and grab a bot and say "they sell for 0.05" but the community here wouldn't take that as proof. So, try and go through outpost or bazaar and find some proof to show that people are selling for 0.05. You don't need to disprove 0.11 here, only prove that 0.05 is now becoming more relevant.

          I searched all ads on outpost to find all these links with unsolds. Many people were selling some other weapons together with the rescue rangers. And they were asking for 1 scrap for any weapon. I actually haven't really seen anyone providing proof for sellers at 0.05 ref when lowering the price of weapons.

            Well if people are still wanting 1 scrap then 1 scrap has to stay, does it not? Wait until people are beginning to do 2 : 1 swaps without them being a bot. Once that's more common, then re-suggest.

              Following your logic, all weapons should be worth 1 scrap, because people are selling them for that value. I just checked the classfields too. There are 10 pages of people selling weapons at 0.05 ref (most of them are even actually selling them for 1 scrap or 2 craftable weapons as stated in their comment). So in the best case maybe there are 100 people on bp.tf selling any weapon at 1:1 rate.

                And to counter, classifieds aren't taken as good proof here, either. You're welcome to use classified as an addition to your proof to make it a tad bit better, but you need sellers from other sites to make it more solid. Do some more digging.

                  I referred to the classfields just to show you that most of the people sell most of the weapons for 1 scrap each (even the ones valued at 0.05 ref at bp.tf), not as part of the proof for my suggestion.

                    It's not a matter of showing me whether or not people sell for 0.05. It's a matter to proving to the price moderators that 0.05 is now being sold more frequently. Anyways, I have some things to do. Good luck with your future suggestions.

                      OK, I'll say it in more simple words: NOBODY is selling weapons for 1 weapon each. Everybody is trying to make profit with EVERY weapon, so they're selling most weapons (except for the ones valued higher) for a scrap each. That doesn't mean all weapons are valued at 1 scrap.

                      Can you have a look at the price suggestions for weapons worth 0.05 ref according to backpack.tf and see if anyone is proving that people are selling for 0.05 ref? Unsolds should be enough for this suggestion. Not willing to continue arguing either. Let the mods decide if unsolds at 1 scrap are enough.

    You should label which ones are 0.05 and which ones are 0.11, for future reference.

      You need sellers for the suggestion to be completed , for now downvote as you don't have any.

        Guys, seriously, weapons are one of the lowest valued items in TF2. And like I said above NOBODY is selling ANY weapon at 0.05 ref. Everybody is selling ANY weapon at 0.11 ref, because they're looking for profit. That doesn't make the regular bp.tf price of ANY weapon 0.11 ref, right? From this moment on I'll ignore any comments saying I need sellers, unless these comments are from mod.

        Just saying, if no one is selling below a scrap then why lower it to 0.05-0.11 instead of leaving at 0.11? There seems to be no point in lowering it then.

          Because people are selling EVERY weapon for a scrap, not just the rescue ranger. And yet most of the unique weapons are priced as 0.05 ref at backpack.tf, right?

            well, true but they do it so they can get a profit, unless you can get proof for it ( rescue rangers for a wep ). I would advise you to close this submission soon. You're going to get a lot of negative comments.
