CS:GO Keys vs TF2 keys
Yeah, quick question, I made a bit of searching, but couldn't find the answer, so if it was asked before then sorry, I didn't see it.
Pretty much I'd like to know how high the CS GO key price is compared to TF2 keys. And I don't mean the price in money, but the item:item value, TF2 key for CS GO key value. Which one is more expensive or maybe they're equal? Cause I'm thinking about trading some TF2 keys for CS GO keys, but I'd like to know the value first. Thanks in advance.

Honestly since you can only buy the CS;GO keys from Valve, then the price is... 2.99-3.99 a pop, give or take depending on what you're opening... People don't sell them very much, since you can only take a loss.

As for how that that translates over to TF2 keys... well I don't play the game, but how much does one TF2 key go for? If it's 2.99 or 3.99 a pop, then the answer is 1:1...

Well the reason I'm askin is because TF2 keys are going up non stop (in metal), so I thought the CS GO keys might be lower compared to TF2 keys. But I don't know.

In TF2, since weapons can be crafted into metals and weapons are always dropping for everyone who is in the game, there is no shortage of metal and the supply keeps going up, while demand stays the same. This causes a steady decrease in price because of metal inflation.

However, in CS:GO, ugly-common weapon skins are somewhat useless and also worthless and the cheapest price to buy CS:GO keys is in the in-game store at $2.5, while in TF2, the cheapest in on websites/market at $2 sometimes or $2.2.

Note that CS:GO is a competitive game still being played just like it was played back more than 14 years ago, so trading is not as frequent as it is in TF2, so the key supply is significantly lower.

So the simple answer, CS:GO keys are 50 cents more expensive than TF2 keys; or roughly 2 ref. You can't expect someone to accept a 1:1 trade of tf2-csgo keys because the person with CS:GO keys would be losing 50 cents every key.
