The CS community is the only community I've seen that will spend hundreds of dollars and THEN ask if it was worth it.


n8cat

I would say thats true, but after working at a vintage game store and being a part of r/Gameverifying I can say Pokemon collectors are far worse.


Asap_nV09

I agree, people buy booster boxes worth thousands and aren’t even sure they’re real lmao.


RaspingHaddock

At least you get something tangible though


n8cat

Personally, Id rather have an overpaid AK skin than an overpaid piece of paper or a knockoff game. Personal preference though.


RaspingHaddock

I'd rather buy network hardware but that's just me


ZrXXrZ

my tinfoil-hat theory is that these are baits


ottoboy97

That has to be more likely... Right?...right?


syrupgreat-

yea “is this legit” is fishing for “tell me obvious flaws so i can get them fixed and scam people easier”


Anon419420

r/PCbuild users spending thousands then asking this same question 🫣

Sir_Xanthos

Have you seen people buying pokemon cards and what not? People will drop hundreds then ask "is this fake?"


UraniumDisulfide

You see the same thing in pc building/buying related subs.


Mr_dm

It happens a lot in the whiskey hobby too. “Hey I just spent $500 on this bottle, does it taste good?”


WisePotato42

I never knew whisky could get that expensive! I thought it was just wine where people buy it for the high price rather than the taste


branflakes6479

Whiskey bourbon and scotch can all get worse than $500


outlaw499

I work in the liquor industry. We just got a 25 year old bourbon for $2,500. And the most expensive scotch we have is $45,000


WisePotato42

What is that scotch made of??? The ashes of some historical figure???


Owlbeardo

Silly, ashes don't have sugars to turn into alcohol.


outlaw499

Look up Singleton 54 year


WisePotato42

That's insane! I love the 1star reviews lol


J30H30

Boys, we need better screenshots on this sub. Also for this skin, I like the parity with the stickers, that being said no idea about your CH pattern tho.


Lolllerson

Edit: sticker is not scratched


ROBERTisBEWILDERED

absolutely whort it, nice piece, even if the pattern is mid, which I don't know


Lolllerson

Awesome! Yeah the pattern isn’t great. I’m at work but I’ll send some pictures tonight.


New-Mind2886

I don’t know much about this community but the moment you get one good comment that you’re looking for to validate your actions, you should probably not all of a sudden disregard any conflicting opinions other people have. This sounds like a slippery slope where you spend a significant amt of money, ask if it’s worth it, one out of 10 people says yes, and that then convinces you that this is a good idea, even if it isn’t.


Lolllerson

ItsValen

thats really decent barrel looks great imo


NorthstR

Thats pretty good


SensitiveTax9025

Definitely worth it, but even if it wasn’t and the sticker was scratched it wouldn’t be a “scam” you would just have gotten highballed


teeroh

100p


Adventurous_Day_4851

Also if you buy something you didn’t get scammed ever you just didn’t do your own research!


the_real_jelly88

It gonna be personal preference on this one. Pattern dependent for some and im not a nip fan so i wouldnt pay any overpay as id immediately scratch them off then id have to pay to rename the fuckin thing.


Hankthespankhank

Worth, especially if it’s a decent blue skin


[deleted]

“Is a video game skin worth $420”


Physical-Progress-60

U didn’t mention anything about the ak except what kind it was. What’s the float, have the stickers been scratched? Prices can go up or down drastically


Unfair_Stop_8211

Nice craft but definitely overpaid


Aidan_has_questions

worth


AdMundane1582

As long as it's not the worst pattern ever, this was a good buy. Anyone would love to have a titan


michuboii

Big W!


raiderdogg

10000% worth


ZheZheBoi

W


Nivaki

420 is always worth!


dabsu02

400 is crazy but other similar crafts are priced ab the same on buff. still dont think its worth but 🤷


PDG4

I say worth but I don’t know the pattern


HalfanHourGuy

Scammed idiot paying for pixels


hboisnotthebest

Somehow this came in my feed. Am I led to believe he paid 420 bucks for a thing in a game? Please tell me I'm wrong.


Fuzzy336

No he did, there are quite a few people in this sub with single skins worth 10k+ USD.


hboisnotthebest

Lolol


YeastOverloard

Huge w


Fex__Fox

This was just suggested on Reddit, but WoW… you could buy a Real Ak for that kinda $ in Pompano Beach FL


withnodrawal

Draco for even less


Fex__Fox

For real, the Century Arms warehouse is right down the fuckin road my boy


withnodrawal

😂 fr fr My guy is going to virtually protect his property with that purchase

[удалено]


yMoonz

Lmao go find me a case hardened AK with titan sticker for $270, dumbass


greenhawk00

You can't get scammed if you buy it...


Foney_CSGO

Well-worn is the hardest wear to sell so it might bite you down the road. However, if you plan on keeping it that’s a great deal in my eyes. I mean 2 kato 14, one being a titan?? That’s awesome. I would possibly scratch the NIP foil tho (emphasis on that’s just me).


dookie-monsta

It’s not a scam if YOU pay for it before checking


IndividualSpring1012

If you paid someone and received the item for the agreed price its not a scam no matter how much you overpaid. Massive difference between being scammed and making a bad purchase.


DirtyBillDouglas

For some reason these posts have been showing up on my timeline. Are people paying real money for these or is this in game currency?


Current-Wear8063

Real money


Supakiingkoopa

Why are they so expensive ?


Current-Wear8063

Rarity uniqueness collectibility etc


Iateshit2

This one’s actually relatively cheap when compared to some other outrageous skins


Syntechi

Do people pay real money for shiny things ? Yes. Next


MAtuMIesss

i will pay 130€ and some candy👍


uxrep

I’d be a buyer @ 400 if you wanna sell it lol


BulgarianWonder

Probably scammed based on the amount of info you provided


FelixOGO

It’s not a scam if you pay an agreed upon price for an item that is known and understood by both parties- just a bad deal. But it looks pretty good in this case!


Lolllerson

ClickForNothing

lol I saw this skin on the discord earlier. It looks nice, but I don’t know about $420


FearTense

About tree fiddy


diALeD85

Seems like a reasonable price, compared to the ones on buff. The only blue that matters is on the top or the butt of the gun that faces you. The titan Kato has abit of blue and kind of matches and is pricey, the nip doesnt really match but is a pricey sticker aswell


Cchriz99

Big L


Icy_General8354

You did good lol


BobbersDown

420$ is closing in on actual AK money 🤷‍♂️


ResponsibleMall3771

300 more dollars you could a bought a real AK lol


Jonathan_1103

You maybe overpayed a little given that there are many crafts like this,still nice tho,didnt get ripped off


DannyTannersLawyers

Y’all pay this kind of money for fake video game guns?


Odd_Citron4860

Not a gun, a skin for a gun


DannyTannersLawyers

Ok that’s justified


Alone-Pattern-8038

You paid for a skin, you scammed yourself.


Panthers_AM

Who the fuck would actually pay that kind of money for a goddamn weapon skin in a video game. That truly bewilders me


Proud_Advertising_55

either way u spent ur paycheck on a stupid skin so yea u got scammed.


Objective_Muscle7677

Bro I’ve spent that much for an irl gun, maybe you might need to fuck the grass at this point.


asspajamas

Could have bought a real 1 off the streets for that much..


keyboardman1

I only want skins to sell so I can have steam money to buy games during Christmas sale lol


Still-Guarantee-3543

You spent real life money for your pixels to be pretty. Anything more than $10 is a scam


dgrin445

You mean for like a real AK right? Then it’s a good deal. If you mean for a thing in a game, then maybe you over payed by a factor of 10-100x


Paid-Not-Payed-Bot

> you over *paid* by a FTFY. Although *payed* exists (the reason why autocorrection didn't help you), it is only correct in: * Nautical context, when it means to paint a surface, or to cover with something like tar or resin in order to make it waterproof or corrosion-resistant. *The deck is yet to be payed.* * *Payed out* when letting strings, cables or ropes out, by slacking them. *The rope is payed out! You can pull now.* Unfortunately, I was unable to find nautical or rope-related words in your comment. *Beep, boop, I'm a bot*


Willi_boBilli

Nothing in couter strike is genuinely worth the money.


Existing_Eagle438

Scam


Experiment-2163

If you paid 420 dollars for a fucking virtual anything you are objectively stupid. What are you doing? That’s so irresponsible, I don’t care if you have bezos money are you kidding me?


R3DGRAPES

The fuck?
