Markets, fees and payout rails
Every figure carries its source and the date it was read. Where sources disagree, the page says so and uses the less favourable figure.
A review score is one signal, not a safety check. Scores can be gamed, and a market can fail after years of good reviews. Keep balances small, and check the domain before you log in anywhere: fake skin sites are common.
Since 16 Jul 2025 received CS2 items are trade protected for 7 days and the trade can be reversed in that window. Markets hold seller proceeds until it closes. source, read 2026-11-03

- Steam Subscriber Agreement limits use to personal, non-commercial, bars commercial exploitation and non-human scripts (sections 2.A, 2.G, 4). A cron on priceoverview does not fit that, so Steam prices are left out. Calculator only. Terms, read 2026-11-03.
Data sources and terms
- Shown on this site: Skinport (public API; lowest asks via the free csgotrader price files, sales from Skinport directly) and BUFF163 as a labelled reference price (csgotrader). csgotrader publishes no terms for those files.
- Left out because their terms forbid reuse: CSFloat, Market.CSGO, Waxpeer. Steam prices are left out too, because the Steam Subscriber Agreement limits use to personal, non-commercial and rules out scripts.
- Left out because no public permitted feed was found: DMarket (needs a key), HaloSkins, CS.Money and Lis-Skins (terms sit behind a bot check we do not bypass), White.market (feed host does not resolve).
Fees and trust scores are facts read by hand on the dates shown. They are not live.
