What the numbers don't cover
Everything above is sticker price. It says nothing about Swap.gg's fees, which come off what you actually receive when selling and vary by payout method — and we don't publish fee figures because we haven't verified them and a stale one would mislead more people than it helps.
Unlike Steam, Swap.gg can pay out to methods you can actually spend elsewhere, which is the reason to use it — and the reason to read its fee and withdrawal terms before you commit rather than after.
Check the exact skin before you buy. A market that's cheapest 0.1% of the time is still dearer on most individual skins, and the spread on any one skin can be far larger than the averages here suggest.
