Just want to point out a yellow buy for 32.5,
and another yellow buy for 50 in the same day.

That seems wild to me.
A 17.5B difference. You could buy a green hween, blue hween, red hween, and TWO red santas with that difference.

Echoing what "Established"Posted on V65:

For some reason you have changed "if they only list sales, they are trying to inflate" to "if they only list deals, they are trying to inflate."

Here's the original:

[Beware] Price Manipulation

- Investigate accounts which people claim to trade with, be cautious if the account seems to be inactive for the last few months.

- Check a persons post history to see if they only list their sales and not buys or vice versa, this will show their intentions very clearly. (
if they only list sales, they are trying to inflate
, if they only list buys, they are trying to get the prices to go down.


- Sometimes people inflate their sales by overpricing an item involved in the trade.

- Sometimes people post ranges for their own benefit and don't reflect the recent trades.

- Some users will change their examine to claim they are accurate PC'ers, because this falls in a grey area and Fmods are unable to take action, be aware that some of these are false, they may even mention this in their post to try and deceive people.

- If a post looks suspicious, for example failing to mention second parties, screenshots, prices that seem very inaccurate compared to recent trades within the thread, then be very cautious.

- People that manipulate and use false ranges usually appear off in game and are never online to answer any queries about their ranges.

- Research the ranges advertised, to see if they include actual recent trades within the thread.

- Look for reports verified by both parties involved with the transactions.

@Established, my apology, yea, I have Grammarly pro, it suggested I change Trades to Deals for a better synonym. I will keep your word the same; it's a synonym. It means the same thing, my friend. I will use your original word when I quote in the future, not to worry. I will re-posting your message every week when I post my weekly compilation to remind everyone to do their research. Thank you very much for re-iterating the point!

Take care, pal!

@Tranquility
It was down as "sales" to differentiate the difference between buy and sell. Because if people are only listing their sell prices and never their buying price, something is suspicious.

Thanks for helping out either way and thanks for your ranges :) . I'll keep quiet now before i get attacked for derailing lol.

Established, I'm glad you have created such insightful information that is your own. The research aspect is something that should be echoed loudly. In such a volatile time even posting something 3 days old could be misleading information. It is great that you are letting people know they should do their own research.

Seems the gaps are closing between all of the hats which is great for those looking to upgrade.
