how is it that the keys are cheaper in-game than on the market?

[suicidal_monkey]

the case key seems to cost £1.99 in-game, but on the market it's at least £2.20 ...do you get a limited number or something? :g:

I think its just that people buy them and don't want them, so try to sell them for more than they bought them for. It's stupid. Always better buying them in-game.

what cheese said....
If you're looking for a particular skin, you are pretty much always better off buying it straight from the market rather than hoping to 'win' it in one of the cases.

No particular skin. I just have a small amount of steam-money from selling all the cards from the xmas steam sale, thought about gambling it for an expensive awp or knife

If your luck is anything like mine, you'll get a potato coloured SMG that's worth all of 0.03p!

similar to yours it seems, only potato-with-ectoplasm-coloured and worth 8p ...didn't realise it might be battle scarred already

Linking in with what no peanuts and Blunt said, you are better off just buying a half decent skin for £2 then opening a case.
