@sun why wouldn't this work? it sounds plausible

@kaia @sun I'm not seeing anything online that says you can't buy a Deck with Steam Funds, but there's absolutely no fucking way you can get 180$ from a skin (you'd have to have been exceedingly lucky or gambled on waiting for years) > 180$ Steam Deck > 180$ money, you'd 100% lose some while selling the Steam Deck, the market would be oversaturated

They're making at as if you can gamble and instantly cash out, but there's no way man

@coolboymew @kaia @ooignignoktoo @sun there's lots of drops bigger than that, but the cheapest deck is also more than double that

lots of the examples are taken out their ass and no longer true, another easy "stop wasting time with ai" judgement awaiting

@i @kaia @ooignignoktoo @sun Yeah, I thought the price to be weird too, pretty sure it never even reached that in most first world currency even on sale. The amount of people that transferred CSGO winnings into a deck into money is probably extremely negligible

@coolboymew @kaia @ooignignoktoo @sun they will probably add a scanner like they did in France a few years ago

but the amount of money shuffling people have done with CS items is no joke, it's a whole shadow economy
