Market Price Is Going Down So Fast ?? Anything Is Wrong Here??
I've been noticed that many Dota2 items such as keys, manta, so on are dropping their prices non-stop. I dont know what happened. Can anyone explain?

I'm guessing your typical supply and demand theory. People want steambucks to buy games or the summer badge or whatever, so they're selling their stuff cheaper in order to sell faster (which creates an excess of supply, obviously).

I reckon as soon as the sale is over the prices should go back to their regular level.

About halfway through the sales in the past, tradeable items have always had their prices drop. It's just supply and demand.

so you think the price will go back as normal after summer sale is done?

Given time. But many of the summer sale items will continue to slide further down in price until the remaining ones will shoot up a bit in price ofllowing the sales end if Valve doesn't delete all of the cards then unused or such.

there was a rumor or something that steam is trying to get rid of bots somehow if its true then lower prices are actually getting in the market and not being bought in a microsecond

not the bots

just fluctuations and supply and demand.

the recent flood of players to dota 2 cant help either.

Always sell off your items before a Steam sale. I do, I dump everything rather than watch them turn worthless for another 4 months
