If you consider buying skins and stickers not only as a way to diversify your game, but also as an investment on which you can make money, you have to be especially careful when choosing which game item to buy. This is especially true when it comes to stickers: while the price of skins can change in a short period of time, then investing in CS:GO stickers – This is an activity for the patient, as most rare stickers have a steady price increase over the months and years. Here are some tips that will help you make money on stickers in CS:GO.
Prospective purchases from past collections
If you have enough free funds, you can replenish your inventory with stickers from famous tournaments of past years, the demand for which continues to this day:
- 3DMax (Holo) Katowice 2015. The cost of a sticker can fluctuate around two hundred dollars, and since the release of the sticker it has increased about twenty times. The striking design, coupled with the fact that the team in question no longer appears in the majors, makes this sticker a coveted item for many collectors.
- Team Liquid (Foil) MLG Columbus 2016– another example of a sticker whose value is steadily increasing. Unlike the previous one, it is dedicated to a team that continues to perform, so there is less uniqueness in it, and therefore the price is somewhat lower. But the design of the sticker is noteworthy: it is made using negative space and will look great on plain skins.
- Dragon Lore (Foil) – An example of a sticker that is just gaining popularity. Thanks to its design with many small details and a style reminiscent of one of the most famous skins, it is in considerable demand. The sticker drops from the CS20 Sticker Capsule, so unlike team stickers, this item is slowly becoming more available on the market. However, its price also continues to rise, and you have a chance to take advantage of this by buying it soon.
Another potentially profitable option – follow the competition schedule and pay attention to new stickers associated with them. For example, at the beginning of May 2023, capsules with stickers in honor of Blast Paris Major 2023 with team symbols and player autographs appeared in the game. It is possible that in a few years some of them will increase in price just like the skins from the old collections mentioned above. When choosing which sticker to invest in, you should take into account several factors at once – its design, rarity, popularity of the player or team, the success of their performance in the tournament. The smartest thing to do would be to buy several stickers at once – You'll definitely be lucky with one of them.
