Do you rent skins?
Did you bother renting skins before the latest update? Will you rent skins now when valve made all cases skins rentable?

Renting is a weird flex. “Hey look at my cool skin collection I would have had if I wasn’t poor.”

You should learn to express your opinion respectfully.

I’m not judging people who rent skins or anything, everyone enjoys the game the way they want. This is sort of a subscription, for like 12 bucks a month you can flex skins… that you don’t own. Just in my opinion it’s not worth it, but I’m only speaking for myself.

People can rent skins just to try them in action or if they don't want to use them in long term. If you want just to test some skins it's cheaper to pay $2.50 and get the whole collection than buying covert skins for like ~$100 for a single item and then lose ~$15 on selling those due to fees.

Also most people get skins for themselves (for aesthetics) and not to flex, this why in old times skinchangers were extremely popular even though no one else could see hacked skins.
I don't think skins are just about flexing, I buy skins only if I like them, and I honestly don't care what others think or say… For me it's more about customization

And I was fine (and actually preferred it) when we could just swap weapon models ourselves in CS 1.6 and they looked like that in everyone's hands

However I don't rent because I don't like anything time-limited at all. If I rented a skin, gotten one that I really like (doesn't always have to be the "lowest float" and best pattern etc, personal preference) and the next week I would have gotten it looking different I wouldn't like it.

To try skins in action you can use inspect servers, which is $2.5 cheaper than a key. Every time I planned on buying a decent skin I would hop onto an inspect server to see how well it matches. And didn’t have to spend a dime.

And for your rented skins it would take a month to turn $15 into 0. So if you use that $100 covert for over a month you’re already a winner.
