Selling games I bought for less money than what Scrap.tf offers for the same game?


Recommended Posts

Please help me. I am so confused right now.

 

Scrap.tf has this built in game selling system where you can trade keys for the games in your gift inventory. This is great stuff, but not without concerns. What if I bought a game like Half-Life 2 on steam right here, right now. Currently, with the steam summer sale, Half-Life 2 has a price of 1.99 USD, with a base price of 9.99 USD. Here's the problem: Scrap.tf tells me they will buy it from me (from what I can tell) for 2 keys and 55 refined metal. When converting that metal into USD, that becomes about 4.30 USD. So if I buy Half-Life 2 for 2 dollars, and I recieve 4.30 instantaneously after buying it, I make a profit of 2.30 USD??? Infinite money glitch IRL?

 

I need somebody to tell me if what I am saying is right, because it's got me going crazy. And if this is right, I would like to know if this is a problem for or with Scrap.tf (it probably isn't a problem, probably)
