Steam Market vs Third-Party Prices
The Steam Community Market usually lists Survival Knife | Fadehigher 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 | $159.57 | $118.87 (SkinFlow) | +34% |
| Minimal Wear | $315.88 | $178.57 (DMarket) | +77% |
Steam takes roughly a 15% fee from the seller and balances can't be withdrawn, so a positive spread doesn't automatically mean arbitrage — it reflects the premium buyers pay for wallet-funded convenience.
