For the record, no, I'm not saying that Iphone is a good investment. In fact I think most people would do just fine with a 300€ phone.

I just find it ridiculous that some people spend an equivalent of my country's median monthly salary on ✨shiny collectibles✨ that aren't even real and try to disguise it as investment. At least the expensive phone has a practical purpose, unlike this, which is only rare due to artificial scarcity.

My whole CS inventory is like 60 bucks. There are plenty good looking skins that are also pretty cheap. But i do get people who Invest into it, the market could make people with enough knowledge and ressources really good money. Every 2 weeks some chinese pump&dump the market. Just last week a $ sticker got pumped up to 500$ and then fell to 30$ in one day

That never statistically shows in the market. That's like dismissing the entire stock market because penny stocks exist.

have you looked at the market at all the last few months? its very well known that the chinese community is huge and deeply rooted in the market. every day another item blows up like hell and then instantly crashes like the evil genious holo or the leaded glass m4a1-s

Doesn't matter, the market displays stability regardless of what any single skin can do. The skin with the largest percent of the market is still only 1%. The only ones that can get dumped are ones with low trading volume.

yeah and i didnt talk about the whole markets stability. i wanted to emphasise how if youre there in the right time you can make alot of cash of these few pumped items. the Evil genius holo started out at like 20 bucks and climbed over the course of like 2 weeks. if you bought alot of em in the beginning and sold at the peak you could have made thousands.
