Keys are selling over market value in the Market

[muckymucks]

What sense does that make? Who's dumb enough to overpay on keys?

Mann Co. Store price - $2.49

Market price - $2.53

Mannco keys can't be traded for 3 days when bought, if I recall. Maybe thats why.

That's not right. I've bought and traded keys within seconds.

i remember a friend telling me that in other countries the currency proportions are off so it's cheaper for them to buy off the market. of course you only make a 1 cent profit or something.

Eh, well then. No clue. Maybe people are just feeling more charitable these days, *or just feel envy at Valve and TF, so they buy keys from people instead*

I believe if you're in Washington state, you can avoid the sales tax by buying them in the community market instead of from the store.
