About IGXE

IGXE is a Chinese CS2 skin marketplace that has been trading game items since 2004, run from Chongqing. It sits alongside BUFF163, YouPin898 and C5Game as one of the four mainland venues whose prices set the floor for CS2 skins. The seller fee is 0.6% of the sale price — lower than YouPin898 and BUFF163 — with a further 0.8% taken when you withdraw to Alipay, capped at ¥10,000 per withdrawal.

Everything settles in yuan through Alipay or WeChat Pay, so for anyone without a mainland Chinese payment method IGXE is a price reference rather than a place to buy. Its asking prices are one of the benchmarks Western marketplace prices get measured against, which is worth knowing when you are judging whether a Western listing is fairly priced.
