I was trying to get one Skyrim card to complete my collection but I could never get even one. It is really scary how Steam could market a virtual card that barely cost anything to draw (assuming they just re-use some of the game scrap arts) and still earn load of money from it. It was around 14-18 cents when I first started F5 last night and by the time I quit, it was a steady 25 cents market for Skyrim card.

It also gives me a feeling that someone got a bot or really fast fingers in snapping any cards that are less than 20 cents.

me too!

I kept clicking F5. I clicked on nearly 100 cards and all was sold by the time I click buy.
Really seems like there was a bot buying all the skyrim cards.

Then after that I saw 1 user selling nearly 5 skyrim card at 30 cents at the same time.

The price of cards are definitely on the rise now.

Good. I might be able to sell my stuff soon. Give it a month or 2 to recover to higher prices.

From Dota2 to Steam cards, Valve is an awesome place to work at now. The bonuses will definitely be a very good one unless uncle GabeN send the money to his Swiss account already.

I gave up in the end and just click on a 20 cents Skyrim card and be done with it. Was hoping to complete more badges but with how scary the market is, I gonna stick with trading only. If can get, then I will do it else I will just stick back to gaming.

At least you managed to click 20 cents Skyrim. Anything < 25 cents was gone whenever I clicked.

Yup, either a lot of patience in finding the right trade or a lot of pennies and start buying it off market, haha.

Build a bot! My interns did a recorded test script for software testing previously, and last night it makes me considering in changing it to click cards for me instead.
