Buying and selling skins in Counter-Strike 2 is the foundation for the game’s massive trading economy. Every day, hundreds and thousands of weapon skins, knives, gloves, and stickers are bought and sold on the official Steam community market. There are several other places to sell CS2 skins as well.
For those that have acquired one or more CS2 skins and are looking to sell, here’s how.
How to Sell CS2 Skins
Counter-Strike 2 skins are sold directly on the Steam community market, which is the most accessible location for buying and selling skins. Players can sell weapon skins, agent skins, stickers, cases, music kits, and graffiti. Skins can be sold on the Steam community market for Steam Wallet funds.
To sell a CS2 skin, open up Steam, and go the Inventory page. Navigate to the CS2 section, and select a skin. At the bottom of the right-side skin display window, it shows the current lowest selling price for that item on Steam, and how many sold in the past 24 hours. Click Sell to create a listing and set a price. For higher priced items, players may have to confirm the listing either through email or through the Steam mobile app.
As of the Armory update applied in the beginning of October 2024, all skins acquired through the market, from opening cases, or from trading are subject to a seven day cooldown before they can be re-listed and sold.
The Best Tool for Selling CS2 Skins
The Steam Inventory Helper browser extension is incredibly useful for players looking to buy and sell skins. This browser extension will compare skin prices between the Steam community market and a variety of third-party skin websites.
Additionally, the extension also includes a “quicksell” option that automatically lists the skin on the Steam community market at the lowest current price, or one cent cheaper. This guarantees that the skin sells in a timely fashion.
