CS2 Best Deals

An item is listed here when one marketplace is selling it for meaningfully less than the others selling the same item right now. For every item we take each marketplace's cheapest in-stock listing, require at least 3 of them, and take the median as the typical price. The deal is the cheapest of those quotes, and the saving is measured against that median — not against a long-run average.

Every quote behind a deal was confirmed by that marketplace's feed within the last 24 hours, and the page itself rebuilds every 30 minutes. A marketplace whose feed goes quiet drops out of the comparison the same day rather than lingering, so a dead feed cannot keep advertising a price nobody can buy at.

Because the number is measured against what the item actually costs elsewhere today. Comparing a marketplace price to a Steam average, or to an aggregate that includes marked-up and long-dead marketplaces, produces much bigger numbers that no buyer can realise. Real cross-market spread on a liquid skin is usually single digits to low double digits, and that is what you see here.

It varies item by item — no marketplace is always cheapest, which is the whole reason to compare. Each card names the marketplace with the best current price and how many marketplaces it was measured against. The "Compared" line tells you how much agreement is behind the number: more markets means a more reliable typical price.

An item needs at least 3 marketplaces holding a fresh, in-stock listing before we will call anything about it a deal. Thinly traded skins, unusual patterns and rare knives often fail that test, and we would rather show you nothing than compare a price against itself. Items under $25 are also left out, since a percentage saving on them is worth very little.

Click the price button on any card and you will land on the marketplace offering it. Prices move as items sell, so treat the number as of the moment the feed was last checked — the card tells you how long ago that was.
