Use steam levels to estimate how much it will cost you

[Ogami]

Level 100 will cost you around 200 bucks in trading cards, give or take a few.

One method I like doing is every event where they have a badge to level 10, just add $100 steam wallet into your account. You get all the XP from the level 10 badge and still keep your steam wallet so you aren't forced to buy stuff for the badge.

It only gives you reputation in trading to inexperienced fools everyone else knows levels are meaningless for that and that scammers can easily reach that.

Not only can scammers easily reach that, but you don't know if it's a stolen account or something.

Actually I do not know anybody that is at some insane level (lets say 500+ or something) where the level itself costs several hundrets or thousands of dollars and starts scamming. If you put that much effort into your account you are not just dumping it away with reports or even bans.

Sure lower levels are absolutely meaningless. I mean you could reach level 100 fairly easy with a maximum investment of $50. Even my level didn't cost that much to be honest here. But saying that levels in general give no clue about reputation is basically wrong. Even if you put the money aspect aside there is the crafting process which takes forever even with scripts that do the crafting for you. And no one puts that much money and work into an account just to throw it away with trade scams or cheating or whatever

That is a stupid way of looking at it...
Of course could the account be stolen but if thats the case then you can't even trust yourself because who knows if you infected your computer with what ever malware is out there that injects your Steam client when doing a trade?

We are talking about a situation normal: some person that dropped a little fortune into his account and one guy that needs to trust said person.

Yes and no. The level does give reputation. Just not in the way where you can believe "wow I can totally trust this person guaranteed won't get scammed". In trading the point of seeing someones level is just to give a quick gauge on how much the person invested in it. It's easier to swallow believing a trade is reputable from eg a level 100 person than a level 5. Scammers are far less likely to be spending 50-80 bucks per account to scam someone over an item that could be worth less before they get trade banned and have to move on to the next account.

I've yet to seen someone with a decent level on the forums complain they've lost their account. They would've had the basic knowledge to know what they should be doing if their account gets hijacked. Also Google...
