they are raising slightly!..Slightly I believe

I have 5 strange rainblowers

Fyi guys, there is 61,717 S Rainblowers out there according to Stats.tf

got a s rainblower with name tag and 3 s parts i loove it so much xXx

@cagmlg A strange rainblower is unobtainable now by any means other than trading with another player. A normal rainblower can come from drops, etc.

i dont want to sound desprate but how do u get a rainblower

Awesome... let it keep it drop... That way we can buy them all... Buy Cheap... Sell High... I have 45 BTW and counting... :)

@beksiq you cant get them anymore they were from crate 46
you will have to buy them so look on outpost for cheap ones and keep it

how i can get one :3

only have 1 but can people send me links to cheap ones

I only have 3 :<

yo guys, anyone feel like increasing their collection of rainblowers? im trying to get a 2nd unusual so i can raffle it on tf2pc, but i nobody takes rainblowers as currencies.

"I see so many people selling them for 1 key and even more people buying them for less I'm starting to think they might actually decrease in price"

They will for now, that is a given, but once supply runs out and we have waited long enough for their to be new players in the TF2 market they will start to become profitable.

This is by no means a quick source of cash, it's a long-term investment that will pay off really well if everyone in the group co-operates. It's simple economic theory :)

For the time being however I would recommend posting a trade filled with rainblowers and ask for three keys each. It is unlikely anyone will buy them, but it will encourage other traders to raise their prices and if someone does buy one you can just use the three keys to buy more :D

"2 - 2.33 Ref now.. -.- Time to buy more?"
Probably a good idea. I'm away at exams the next while, but if we can buy out the cheaper rainblowers we should be fine.

The supply is already gradually dying down and many people are reluctant to sell for less than one key, now all we need to do is hang on to your rainblowers for several months to a year and try to ensure there aren't very many cheap ones on the maret.

After that prices will go up steeply due to a lack of supply. And then we shall make our move >:)

I have ~ 40 xD

Just wondering, could everyone post how many rainblowers you have cause i wanna see the amount of people who have more then 1 or 2. I personally have 20 so try and beat that :D

2 - 2.33 Ref now.. -.- Time to buy more?

I see so many people selling them for 1 key and even more people buying them for less I'm starting to think they might actually decrease in price

I've done the same as well, everyone should post them for 3 keys and invite anyone who is selling them for less to the group - I've been doing my best to do that.

As Doni said, it is not a quick-rich scheme. Raising the price will take time and collaboration on the part of everyone in this group.

Guys, I have posted mine for sale for 3 keys each. I reccomend you do the same, go to TF2TP and TF2Outpost and do the same.

lol just picked 1 up for 2 ref i love it and 2 ref is cheap :)

You people are acting like this is a get-rich quick scheme. It's not. It'll take at least a full year for strange rainblowers even begin to make themselves valuable. If you can't be patient, you made the wrong investment

Otherwise, we could simply refuse to sell our rainblowers and as people get desperate for them their prices will inevitably rise.

Then at a time in the future, which we all agree upon, we SLOWLY start to reintroduce our rainblowers to the market - say one at a time per trader- with slowly being the key word, as if we do it too quickly then prices will plummet quickly as well.

"na 1bud is a bit much make u gotta do it slowly u know start at mabey 5keys then 7keys then a bills then 13keys ect.. till u get to 1bud"

As they're so common raising the price excessively in one -go would work best, that way when we start to lower prices and undercut each other (which will inevitably happen) the price will not fall too excessively.

Prices of common items are more likely to fall than they are to rise, so making an allowance for the fall in prices will be necessary.

I have a feeling this will end up like the BMOC fiasco...

well if u want to buy cheap i post on outpost buying for 2ref each and ive got 18now

you know what would be the ultimate price riser? getting like 70% of all strange rainblowers and deleting them. then the remaining 30% would have their prices increased like hell. Of course this is only theorically possible because probably nobody is that rich xD

What if we were to set a price for these, then, once we start getting people interested, we double the price, and continue a doubling chain?

I really hope the price rises. I'm not sure though because they are fairly common :/

First we need to buy the rainblowers from anyone who is selling them cheap

I believe Doni has a point.

it would probably be most effective to have some people post a price of 8 keys as their buyout. Then other members of the group would ask for 5 keys, and people would buy them thinking they got a deal.

I like that idea..

na 1bud is a bit much make u gotta do it slowly u know start at mabey 5keys then 7keys then a bills then 13keys ect.. till u get to 1bud

Would anyone here like to buy mine off me cheap? 2 for a total of 3 keys + 1 ref ... i'd rather give it someone here for cheap than post it on tf2tp

Post'em http://tf2tp.com/trade.php?trade=7753652

Requesting kick of members no longer keeping to our rainblower pricing policy. And I agree, EVERYONE IN THIS GROUP NEEDS to put them up on TF2TP & TF2 Outpost for ONE BUD EACH - that will encourage other buyers to raise their prices and will start another price rise. It is the only way we can have our plans come to fruition.

While most of them are unlikely to sell at this price, if we can get the prices going upwards and add momentum to that we are still likely to make a decent profit of several keys per Strange Rainblower.

I would like clarification on the below too, I *think* that we set the price for higher than anyone will buy, as that will raise the price eventually :P

Alright, so just to clear things up for myself: We say we're selling them for a certain price, but we don't actually sell them. Instead, we keep raising the price up to the point of at least one Bud?
