EggK47: Unusual Taunt: The Meet the Medic
EggK47: do you want to sell it for money?
Roman Torchwick: No, sorry, i'm looking to sell it for TF2 offers (items) really
Roman Torchwick: Cash is a dangerous option
EggK47: ah okay no problem
EggK47: ty
Roman Torchwick: Alright, i am rethinking your offer
Roman Torchwick: how much "money" can i get with this taunt?
EggK47: ok bro just msg me
EggK47: tell me your price
Roman Torchwick: There's no given price for it.
Roman Torchwick: Not even i have set a price for it, lol
EggK47: i check opskins price
EggK47: its 75$
EggK47: but i dont think its the real price
Roman Torchwick: And which price does it deserve, then?
EggK47: 100$ i think will be fine?
Roman Torchwick: Okay... if i say yes, how do you even do it?
EggK47: what payment method do you have?
Roman Torchwick: I don't have any, since i live in South America :/
Roman Torchwick: it will be hard, trust me.
EggK47: steam wallet codes?
EggK47: you dont have paypal or bank like that?
Roman Torchwick: That can work.
Roman Torchwick: the steam wallet can work, actually.
EggK47: wait a sec
EggK47: let me finish my game
Roman Torchwick: I don't think i can upper the price, right?
Roman Torchwick: while 100$ is a pretty good offer, what's the max you can do?
EggK47: 110$ max
Roman Torchwick: Alright, i can take that.
EggK47: ill finish my game first okay?
EggK47: ty
Roman Torchwick: Yeah, sure, take your time.
Roman Torchwick: I just noticed you are argentinian.
Roman Torchwick: Eso hace las cosas mas fáciles, jeje
EggK47: not really
EggK47: we just move here last 2 months
Roman Torchwick: Oh, i understand.
EggK47: wait a sec
Roman Torchwick: My apologies for my use of Spanish.
EggK47: no problem
Roman Torchwick: Question, though: What happens if my taunt is really worth far more than you offer? market price is roughly 75$, and you are offering 110$
Roman Torchwick: what happens if it is far more than that in reality?
EggK47: its not the real price
Roman Torchwick: Are you sure about that? i got this is a gift, so i'm not entirely sure
EggK47: hmm
EggK47: we can deal for 100$ ?
Roman Torchwick: Alright.
Roman Torchwick: i wanted 110$ but whatever

Roman Torchwick: I'm not sure how i am going to do it. You have a good Standing, and that easies me, just a little bit

EggK47: well if you are comfortable to go first that will be great.. i wont dissapoint you
EggK47: or do you have any safe ideas how we going to do this?
Roman Torchwick: Uhhh i'm not sure, most of all, i'm actually worried that i might not be satisfied with all of this, but you are my safest bet.
Roman Torchwick: No one else has wanted to trade this, you know
EggK47: yes i understand

Roman Torchwick: i'm just sitting here, lol
EggK47: ahh okay lol
EggK47: well i can send first but i want to do it in a safe and secured way
Roman Torchwick: Well, to be honest, i'm not even sure if i want to trade it, not because i love the taunt, or because i don't trust you.
Roman Torchwick: But rather, because, i'm just worried this might be my last chance to sell it, lol
EggK47: its ok if you dont want
