    Recently I saw lots of newbie bought fake tounament equipment like:
    http://steamcommunity.com/market/listings/570/Tournament Staff of Faith?filter=rampage
    http://steamcommunity.com/market/li...uisite Doubled Axe of the Veil?filter=rampage
    http://steamcommunity.com/market/li... Shuriken of the Hidden Hunter?filter=rampage
    http://steamcommunity.com/market/li... Shuriken of the Hidden Hunter?filter=rampage
    they all use the description change tool to modify the tag of the tourney equipment.
    Newbie can not figure out it is fake tag because there are nothing big different except the tag is much shorter.
    Can we do something to avoid more newbie get cheated?

    hmm, in TF2, renamed / redescribed items get the custom text between quotes ( "custom text" ). I dont see that there...
