CS2 cases not to sell today
Every price on this site is what an item costs to buy. This is the other side: the best standing buy order on BUFF163, C5Game or YOUPIN for each item, beside its price, so you can see what selling right now would actually return.

Price is the SteamAnalyst reference price. Best bid is the highest standing buy order across BUFF163, C5Game and YOUPIN, converted from yuan at the live rate; “you’d get” is that bid as a share of the price, and the spread is the bid against the cheapest believable ask. Bids counts the orders standing at the named venue. Items under $5 and quotes outside the plausibility bands are left out; 8,544 priced items had no believable two-sided quote.
How to read this board
What is a "bid" here?
A standing buy order: money somebody has already put up to buy the item at that price on BUFF163, C5Game or YOUPIN. Selling into it is immediate, which is what makes it the honest answer to "what would I get today". The venue holding the best bid is named on every row.
What does "you'd get" mean?
The best bid as a share of the SteamAnalyst reference price, the number the skin page prints. Below 100% is the normal state of a market: the difference is what immediacy costs. Above 100% means someone is bidding more than the item lists for, which is arbitrage rather than a spread, and the arbitrage pages exist for it.
What is the spread?
How far the best bid sits below the cheapest believable ask, as a percentage of the ask. Measured in August 2026 the median across the three venues was about 17.5%. Past 40% the gap is wide enough that listing and waiting usually beats selling into the bid; that is what the "Do not sell today" view collects.
Why does "Sell now" leave some items out?
Because one bid is one person. Where the feed reports how many buy orders stand behind a price, the view requires at least 3; a board telling a seller to act on a single order would be the bid-side version of quoting a one-listing ask as the price.
Which quotes are believed?
The same rules the skin page's sell panel applies. An ask has to sit between a quarter and four times the reference price; a bid has to be above five percent of it; a venue whose own bid sits above its own ask is not reporting a bid and is ignored for that item. Prices arrive in yuan and are converted at the live rate.
Why is an item I own not here?
Either no venue we read quotes a bid on it, or no quote survived the checks above, or it is priced under $5. In each case the board stays quiet rather than implying a spread it cannot measure.
