So I have a Stat Trak M4 Zebra Field-Test. Its an okay gun, worth about 5 bucks. I bought a Howling Dawn sticker back when they were like 40 cents and (regrettably) put it on my gun like a week or so before it went rare. Kinda salty. Anyways, the gun itself is now selling for like 5 bucks, but I didn't know if the sticker would raise its value any, so I'm asking this community, because I figured why not, and I don't really know where else to post this. I appreciate the feedback!

i visit a lot r/GlobalOffensiveTrade/ and this is what i saw with many skins, it adds more based in if it looks good, where the sticker is placed, the wear. and if the skin itself is wanted by many

i suggest you to visit r/GlobalOffensiveTrade/ and do a "pricecheck" to see what others say, keep in mind that this is not offering the weapon, you are just asking for its value

A sticker like that would probably raise the price of the gun (Assuming they could find the more expensive gun in the muddle of lower priced trash). Probably would be easier to try and trade it for keys or something that you could sell easier/faster. I know some people who find the idea of an expensive sticker on a crappy skin funny and appealing purely for the sense of memes.

I know the sticker is rare, I was just wondering whether it was possible to get a better deal. Like, if someone offered $10 for the skin, would that be worth it?

nope, push it way more bud, seach for reddit/r/csgotrading or something :) sometime ago I think stickers would add up to 20% to the price of the skin, and that sticker goes for 500$? Making the calculations is 20% off 500$ + 5$ :)

Normally it wouldn't (add value), its not a lie, but that one for sure will.

Low-ballers will try to scam you out of it, saying sticker doesn't add to the value - they're not technically wrong, normally it doesn't, but in this case it surely does.

But also don't expect anything close to the value of the sticker tho.

You should do some research on a trading sub-reddit or even the /r/globaloffensive itself, then post a trade offer on CS:GO Lounge and wait for the fair offers, just see what comes up, ignore the low-ballers. And test people. If someone offers you like $10 bucks, say "Nah, I've got an offer for $15 already" and see how they will react. If its still cheap they will try to cover instantly. Then forget this guy and try to trade with another one that would offer $15 and say you already got an offer for $20, and so on.

See how far it will go, at what range of price people will instantly try to cover the "offer" you had and at what range they will hesitate in negotiating it further. Then you'll get a clear picture. But that can be a hassle tho.

Just make sure you won't get fooled.

The only sticker that adds REAL vgalue to a gun is the Ibuypower sticker.

The rest might add a few cents but most people dont want to pay extra for them afaik

Any sticker raise value of skin, only depends how real you are :)
So if your skin is 5$ and sticker 0,40 you can sell your gun at 5,25... etc etc

I personally don't mind paying some extra for the stickers, but I won't pay full price for the sticker, that's a no-go. hahaha

Who ever votes no doesn't have knowledge of the game. It'll add 5-15% of the value of the sticker to the skin.
