Hi! I've managed to get myself about 1300 trading cards in 3 months and now i want to trade them for keys, but no one wants my cards.
The thing is that I actually have Trading card Sets (ready for badge), that should count even more right?
Saw that scr(censore?)p.tf has trading cards banking, but im not really sure about it.
What should i do with them?

i also lose 12% (or even more if the prices go lower) from selling them on market :-/

Like Mallorn already said: yes to both questions. However, it might be the fastest way tho, as trading cards for keys is not very popular.

Yes and yes.
However, like you said there arent many people who would want your cards.
Trading vs bundle games maybe, but most likely not vs something as valuable as a key

So shouldnt i try to get the keys directly from scr*p.tf ? Wouldnt it be a better deal or something? If im not wrong they ask for 82 trading cards for a tf2 key.

5-6 sets for a CS:GO key is a common price and something that happens from time to time. Card to goods trading is small, but it is a real thing.

Or try to put up a trade offer here. Sometimes people trade cards for keys and the other way around.

Interesting. Normally there are a few people showing interest in these things, and your low trade rep is not a factor when you are selling trading cards. If my wallet wouldn't be running completely dry, I might even buy a few random cards for PayPal money.

mhm... from scr*p.tf i'd get a key for around 82 t-cards and selling them on steam (which would take years) would give me about 2.3-2.4 euros for 82 cards.

82 random cards for 240 cents? Sounds awfully bad. I usually pay that much for 60-65. Sometimes even less cards.

Yeah, my usual offer is looking at the prices on the Steam Inventory Helper/Expert window, and offer money with the formula of (Market list price + Price after fees)÷2. This way I get it cheaper than the market fee, buyer gets more than selling on the market.

sigh Good question. Frankly, I'd try to sell them for PayPal money, and just use that money to buy the keys. PayPal and other virtual currencies are much easier to calculate with, and people could buy in small amounts as well.

I dont really go in when it comes to trust strangers, just like this...
"you go first, i send you money, i promise xD" things.
So paypal aint really a thing for me when it comes to trading. Heard enough sh*it about scams lately so... yah...
