Steam Market vs Third-Party Prices
The Steam Community Market usually lists Karambit | Damascus Steelhigher than third-party marketplaces — but Steam sales keep the funds in your Steam wallet, while third-party sales can cash out. The spread below compares Steam's listing price with the cheapest third-party offer per wear.
| Wear | Steam Market | Cheapest Third-Party | Spread |
|---|---|---|---|
| Factory New | $1171.08 | $645.05 (CSFloat) | +82% |
| Minimal Wear | $1008.13 | $590.00 (CSFloat) | +71% |
| Field-Tested | $928.69 | $566.18 (CSFloat) | +64% |
| Well-Worn | $1129.13 | $562.81 (CSFloat) | +101% |
Steam takes roughly a 15% fee from the seller and balances can't be withdrawn, so a positive spread doesn't automatically mean arbitrage — it reflects the premium buyers pay for wallet-funded convenience.
