Rare Emoticons That Are Now Retired.

[DeadboyEzra]

Hello everyone.

I would like to thank everyone that takes the time to read this and engage in the discussion.

Now then to my point.

There are many wonderful emoticons that are and were on Steam Market that simply no longer exist. They have either been removed because of controversy or breaking terms but either way the people that did get them still may use them at will. Some are trade capable and some are not. Mostly just depends on what sort of removal they received. It is also unusual but they could also technically be removed by the developer or the license holder that doesn't want them on Steam. So at least as far as the still trade able ones go..

How can I find people that have these and is there an after market where they reside and I might acquire them? I would like to collect a few odd ball ones and I would happily give their value however I also do not work outside of Steam so I won't likely be doing that. Is there something I am missing or a market out there to scratch my niche need?

Your insight would be invaluable thank you.

I can not vouch for the safety of this tools Steam connection so I would not recommend connecting without doing your research. However it has listings with price filtering
https://steam.tools/emoticons/#/

Filtering between price saving the results and date saving the results and comparing the two should give you some idea of rarity.

In addition you could look up a list of games removed from steam and see if they had emoticons before being removed.

Thank you m662,

You are wonderful for trying to help me. I have much to do and much to look for. I appreciate your input and effort. If you know anyone with :blackcat: and :splashi: that would mean a lot right there. Again thank you!

I have quite a few.

99% of the time, the reason why items are no longer purchasable, is because the game itself was removed from Steam. Why? Because you can't really continue to profit on your game if it's not on the store.

Yes. You said you have quite a few of them? What ones do you have and are you willing to trade? Thanks mi amigo.

A lot of hearts and flower emoticons that are no longer available.

This one, while not removed yet is quite rare:





It's four separate emoticons. No, not interested in trading, sorry.

I am fairly certain I have it already. Although that is fine. Take care.

I have a few but would only be willing to trade dupes.

I completely respect that and understand. I too would only trade dupes. Also thanks for your kind discourse and interest in the conversation. Add me friend!

I actually want one of those but never could find anyone who would trade with me lol.

EDIT

It is good enough for me. Always happy to trade. Also where did it come from originally? Just like a gift from steam like stickers are sometimes?

Do you mean :blackcat: from the game Collisions?

[DeadboyEzra]

I believe so. That literally the emote.
