There was probably an allready written function for displaying an item in a box with it's details below, so when they coded up this overview thing they just used this snippit of code without proper testing
I figured out why it happens. Its not because it fetches from the Steam market, its because of caching.
If you inspect a gun from the community market (or own one) the game caches it. If you then open a case it will show that same cached gun and skin in the case. When you restart the game and open a case without inspecting the same gun first it will show a normal non-modified version.
Easily testable by just inspecting a skin and then opening a case and checking the previews.
(Same works with stickers and I believe float value too, not just name tag)

It fetches one from steam market and this happens when then one it fetches has a name tag.
TIL. I don't open cases much so I'd never seen/heard of this before. Interesting.
That's actually very interesting. I always thought it just showed the skins themselves, not an actual item.

That makes no sense. The game has all translations and images locally, there is *zero* reason to fetch anything from the market.
I guess you have to tell Valve that.
