    Hey there
    [11:42 AM]
    ThatKoboldGaming:
    Hello
    What do you want?
    If you're doing the comp team vote scam try your luck elsewhere
    [11:43 AM]
    [CBLA]Xenon:
    What?
    Did you check my profile before accepting? I’m a trader lol what comp team are you talking about
    [11:43 AM]
    ThatKoboldGaming:
    Oh
    Well you kinda added me out of the blue so...
    [11:44 AM]
    [CBLA]Xenon:
    I’m level 160 and been on Steam for 18 years, I would never risk my account.
    [11:44 AM]
    ThatKoboldGaming:
    Sorry if I'm not immediately trusting
    [11:44 AM]
    [CBLA]Xenon:
    I wanted to know if you’re open to cashing out your tf2 inventory? I can offer you $1,300 CAD via e-transfer or PayPal
    [11:45 AM]
    ThatKoboldGaming:
    Not yet, but if I decide to cash out I'll keep your offer in mind
    [11:47 AM]
    [CBLA]Xenon:
    Sounds good bud, let me know. You can feel free to go over my rep/profile and judge it yourself.
    [11:47 AM]
    ThatKoboldGaming:
    I know, I checked your steamrep before I added you
    [11:47 AM]
    [CBLA]Xenon:
    :Like_Yellow:
    Also do you have a buyout in mind that you’re willing to cash it out for?
    [11:50 AM]
    ThatKoboldGaming:
    About $1400 CDN for the entire thing
    Honestly I'm not sure how much some of my warpaints are
    [11:51 AM]
    [CBLA]Xenon:
    I can probably do that when I get home in about 30 minutes to an hour. Are you thinking e-transfer or PayPal?
    [11:51 AM]
    ThatKoboldGaming:
    I said I wasn't cashing out yet
    :/
    [11:52 AM]
    [CBLA]Xenon:
    Oh, a buyout kinda means a price you would sell it for immediately
    [11:52 AM]
    ThatKoboldGaming:
    I'm not much of an experienced trader yenno
    I wouldn't know that
    Sorry for the misunderstanding
    [11:53 AM]
    [CBLA]Xenon:
    No worries, understandable. If you do feel open to cash out when I get home I’ll give you $150 over your buyout.
    BackpackTF priced it at $1,340 USD approximately with some of the war paints not being priced correctly I would say it’s a fair offer. Up to you… can message you in an hour
    [12:02 PM]
    ThatKoboldGaming:
    If I did accept, would it be Money or Items first
    [12:03 PM]
    [CBLA]Xenon:
    Items first unless you can show me that you have more rep than me than i will go first. I have rep for selling and buying over 2,000 keys via PayPal in the past 6 months, im level 160 and been on Steam for 18 years.
    [12:13 PM]
    ThatKoboldGaming:
    Two things
    One, I'd drop 100 of that price since I plan on keeping a few items with sentimental value
    Two, I'm doing this is parts to minimize the chances of being scammed
    My friend knows a lot about economics
    [12:18 PM]
    [CBLA]Xenon:
    Sure thing, what items?
    [12:19 PM]
    ThatKoboldGaming:
    For starters I still want to keep my Spectrum Splattered Collection
    And for no reason whatsoever will I ever sell my Strange Polar Pal
    I will be keeping all non-craftable weapons so I still have options for loadouts, and I will be keeping a loadout set for each class
    [12:23 PM]
    [CBLA]Xenon:
    Okay, how about you don’t drop $100 of the price you get to keep the Polar Pal and non-craftable weapons but I get the Splattered Collection and I’ll add $50 on top of the price
    [12:23 PM]
    ThatKoboldGaming:
    I'm not selling the Spectrum Splattered Collection
    I'm too big a fan
    [12:24 PM]
    [CBLA]Xenon:
    Fair, so you drop $100 to keep the collection, non craft weapons and Polar Pal?
    [12:24 PM]
    ThatKoboldGaming:
    Look, I'll send you a list of what I'm keeping and we'll negotiate price from there
    Okay?
    [12:25 PM]
    [CBLA]Xenon:
    Shoot it
    [12:25 PM]
    ThatKoboldGaming:
    As soon as each class has only 1 cosmetic set across all 4
    [12:25 PM]
    [CBLA]Xenon:
    Alright shoot me a list of the stuff you wanna keep and we will go from therr
    there
    [12:28 PM]
    ThatKoboldGaming:
    Also you know my strange phlog has halloween fire right?
    [12:31 PM]
    [CBLA]Xenon:
    Yeah, hard to find buyers for it since we are not even close to halloween anymore and I would price it at around 10 keys but I did calculate it when I offered
    [12:55 PM]
    [CBLA]Xenon:

    [CBLA]Xenon:

    ThatKoboldGaming:
    How do I put that money from paypal into my bank account?
    [1:19 PM]
    [CBLA]Xenon:
    You just need to link your debit to your PayPal
    But I’m also Canadian so I can do e-transfer
    [1:23 PM]
    ThatKoboldGaming:
    Paypal
    I'd prefer not to give out my bank details
    [1:24 PM]
    [CBLA]Xenon:
    Okay, deal and I’ll cover PayPal fees but only if you send the trade offer since there’s a lot of items. If I send the trade offer we split the fee. How does that sound?
    [1:24 PM]
    ThatKoboldGaming:
    Not unless you're able to send an e-transfer via email alone
    [1:24 PM]
    [CBLA]Xenon:
    I can send an e-transfer via email alone that’s all I need but up to you
    [1:24 PM]
    ThatKoboldGaming:
    [email protected]
    [1:25 PM]

    Let me know once the offer is sent
    [1:40 PM]
    ThatKoboldGaming:

    Thanks - issue is I can't confirm you were ever friends with this exact user by SteamID - all I see is a chat box with a name and profile image. Need to verify this and you can do that with a screenshot of your friend/user activity thru a web browser - when you take this and it shows you adding the user hover your mouse pointer over the users name so it shows the popup of the profile. Make sure you open this in a web browser before doing anything rather than steam client. Take the screenshot and make sure it's Full Screen and make sure steam client URL is enabled, not edited or cropped in any way! Upload HERE…NOT imgur, NOT gyazo or any other 3rd party hosting site!

    Please review this screenshot guide to help you:
