| Wear | Steam Market | Cheapest Third-Party | Spread |
|---|---|---|---|
| Factory New | $1851.93 | $1127.22 (DMarket) | +64% |
| Minimal Wear | $1269.83 | $863.20 (CSFloat) | +47% |

Steam takes roughly a 15% fee from the seller and balances can't be withdrawn, so a positive spread doesn't automatically mean arbitrage — it reflects the premium buyers pay for wallet-funded convenience.
