Collecting rare or unusual skins for weapons in CS:GO– isn't the only way to add personality to your game. There are other opportunities for self-expression, and one of them is – stickers. You can get stickers in different ways – from capsules that drop out in the game, through purchase or exchange on the Market Steam or on other services. Stickers can have value in themselves, and sometimes affect the value of the weapon they are applied to.
Many stickers are available for a limited period, for example, during a major eSports championship or another operation. Since the number of these stickers on the market is limited, their price increases over time. Here are some examples of stickers that can cost a large amount of money to purchase.
Titan (Holo) – a sticker that can rightfully be called the most expensive sticker in the history of CS:GO. Now its value exceeds 70 thousand dollars. The sticker, released in honor of the 2014 tournament in Katowice, is notable not only for its high price, but also for its design: iridescent shades of blue make it one of the most beautiful stickers in the game.
The second place in the list of the most expensive stickers is taken by iBUYPOWER (Holo). Its distinctive design and rarity make it worth more than $59,000. Even the fact that the iBUYPOWER team, to which it is dedicated, was involved in one of the largest match-fixing scandals in the history of professional tournaments in the same 2014 does not harm the interest in this sticker.
Third place goes to another sticker, released in honor of Katowice 2014 – ReasonGaming (Holo). Featuring shades of yellow and orange, this sticker's shiny finish will add a splash of color to any gun's body, making this $41,000 sticker a draw for investors and gamers alike.
Which stickers should I buy?
If you just want to decorate your weapon, there is absolutely no need to chase expensive and rare skins. In our skins store for CS:GOyou can purchase weapons that already have stickers of your favorite teams, or choose a skin without stickers so that you can decorate it yourself.
If you consider their purchase as an investment, you should pay attention to recent operations and championships – there is a possibility that they will become more expensive over time. This was the case, for example, in 2020, when many tournaments were canceled due to the pandemic, and the cost of existing stickers from events and operations increased quite noticeably.
In addition, you can expect original design solutions from the new stickers. In particular, in the sticker capsule added to celebrate the game's tenth anniversary, many of the stickers now have interesting erase effects, noticeably changing their appearance and giving them double meaning. It is possible that in the future, stickers with such effects will also become collectible.
