This is why they are actually profitable and roll out new features. Because they don’t spend time redesigning old shit every time they have a new design in mind.
A lot of people are unconditional fans of Steam and Valve but are pretty uneducated. They’ll defend Valve because they brought a lot of good in the community but will ignore all the negatives.
Valve does a great job on this by not responding to allegations and dramas, so people don’t learn the news.
Sorry it happened! Try again in another community and later. Word it correctly :) - you don’t care about « karma » here. Let’s educate more people :)
Man, looked at my bank statement many years ago and noticed several little charges. A few cents here and a few cents there. The biggest one was maybe .80 cents.
My son had fallen for some scam ran by a YouTuber and was buying and trading skins.
I will say though, now that time has passed, some of those skins are worth insane amounts of money. I’d sell them if I wasn’t so stupid sentimental.
My son got in trouble for doing that, but it still takes me back to a pleasant time when I look at the inventory.
That’s partly because the kids that entered after yours lost a lot of money, and partly because some people gambled a lot, got addicted, and lost a ton of cash.
Oh it wasn’t a small amount by the end of it. He’s a smart boy and he learned right then what that was all about. He won’t even buy a lottery ticket as an adult.
As far as the skins becoming valuable, that is because they are all stat track guns and something changed. I don’t remember what.

I thought it was because they made gambling open to minors and took 30% of all game sales
Last time I said something similar people down voted my comment all the way lol

Gambling? Don’t give steam credit for EAs hard work!
I’m talking about gambling, because you can sell the skins for real money with valve. There’s an expectation of a financial prize.
CS:GO started it.

When he done that they were worthless.
Nice then, I was just worried about some hijacking of the subject by you saying « yes, but we made money! » :)
Good thing you can get something (more) out of it now then! Yea it’s difficult to sell those, I can relate
