Assuming Valve never creates any more, eventually there be very few vintage items in the game. Keep holding onto them untill then and be envied by all.

If anyone is ever wondering what their items is worth, just ask me and i'll give you a general estimate. Non Vintage hats generally go for 2 Refined, except for the new ones. Vintage ones can go from 2-4 refined depending on the hat. New items can go for alot, from 4-8 refined depending on how cool it is. Weapons go usually for around 1/2 a scrap, Vintage ones can go from 1-2 scrap. New weapons can go for 1-3 reclaimed, depending on the weapon of course. The special items like Earbuds can go for 8ish vintage hats or 20$, and Max's Head can go for ALOT the base price is actually 100$. Whiles Bills hat goes for 4ish vintage hats, or 10$.

So yes, people pay alot of money for virtual items.

I originally got a really twingy feeling when I was asked for a genuine portal 2 badge during a trade that happened to be vintage. I then realized I never wore it anyway and didn't need to brag about owning Portal 2 and I traded it, but the fact that it was genuine actually made me pause.

Funny how a few syllables can make me value something over something else even when both have no real value.

Bah, those weren't even that valuable when they first came out. I got a bunch of them from trading and couldn't get rid of them after for anything good. Everyone bought Portal 2 so everyone had them, therefore its not worth much.

And yet, it was green, and that made me pause.

Same thing when I traded away my genuine Kunai for like three weapons. I paused then too, but I already had three other Kunais from random drops. What difference does a bit of green highlighting make? A lot, for some people, apparently.

I have portal 2 and I don't have one, because of Valve's policy of "We only give these things to you if you pre-order, and only if you pre-order from us. :D"

I bought it from a real store a few weeks later when it went on sale. Valve never put it on sale at that price, and even if they had, it wouldn't have come with that.

I can prove your point wrong. A while back, when a Sam and Max game was released on Telltale and people pre-ordered there, Steam also put it up on their system with a free gun pair. After a bit, all who ordered on Telltale got the free weapons as well.

So yeah, in that one case, you didn't need to order via Steam.

Which doesn't suddenly mean that Valve will give out pre-order bonuses for pre-ordering things from every other store, so my point still stands unless they've been quietly giving them out for anyone and everyone pre-ordering games from Amazon, Gamestop, Best Buy, etc.

Crates are pretty much worthless, I think keys go for around 2-3 reclaimed so that's at least 6 scrap or 12 weapons and crates used to go for a weapon to a scrap. No idea what they are worth now, but probably a lot less than a scrap. So the answer is more crates than you can fit in the trading window (unless valve extended it recently, but I don't think they have).

How?!?! All charging does is send me flying forwards and crit me. It doesn't actually do damage. The kills would go to my melee weapon.
