Trade CS2/CSGO skins with non-inflated prices
Skinflow is proud to be one of the very few sites to not inflate our on-site skin prices. At Skinflow, we believe in fair, transparent skin trading. Unlike many CSGO/CS2 trading sites, we do not inflate prices to hide our fees. Whether you want to buy skins, trade CSGO skins, or just check marketplace prices, you’ll always see the real value on Skinflow.
What does “non-inflated” mean?
Most CSGO/CS2 trading sites inflate their prices for skins by 40-80%, which includes both the items you’re trading away, and the items you’re trying to get. These inflated prices are misleading, since they make it difficult to tell if you’re actually getting a good deal for your skins. Many users believe they are, since the site offers higher prices for their own items, but they don’t realize the site’s items are highly inflated as well. This tactic makes it easy to hide high trading fees.
Low fees, full transparency
At Skinflow, we do it differently. We keep all our CS skins at the real market value. The price you see when you want to buy skins on Skinflow is the same you’ll see when you want to trade skins. No surprises, no inflated prices, full transparency.
Instead of inflating skin prices, we charge a low 4-7% fee in a clear way. When you trade skins on Skinflow, the price of your CS2 items are slightly decreased to account for the fee percentage. No tricks, just honest numbers and fair prices, which is one of the reasons why we’re one of the most trusted CSGO trading sites.
Frequent Questions
Why am I not receiving all the skins I traded for in one trade?
Skinflow owns over 10,000+ CSGO skins at any given time. Because CS2 limits each Steam account to only 1,000 inventory items, our trusted marketplace has multiple bot trade accounts to manage our inventory. When you are trading for multiple CS2 skins on Skinflow, it’s unlikely that all your requested skins will come from a single bot’s inventory. To ensure instant skin trades, the CS skins trade bot with the most expensive item(s) from Skinflow included in your trade sends the first offer, and once you accept it, the remaining skins will be delivered through separate trade offers from our other bots. This setup ensures quick delivery without delays, even when you're getting multiple AK-47 skins, AWP skins, or other items from our CSGO marketplace.
What are Skinflow’s trading fees?
Skinflow is proud to offer low fees when trading skins, compared to other trusted CSGO trading sites. We charge only 4-7% trading fees, while many other CS skin trading sites take 10% or more, and trading through the Steam Marketplace can cost roughly 16% in fees! With Skinflow, you can trade CS2 skins instantly and fairly, keeping more value in your inventory and getting the best prices.
How does trading on Skinflow work?
- Update your Steam trade link: Go to your Skinflow profile and confirm that your Steam trade link is working, and up-to-date!
- Make sure your Steam Account is ready to trade CSGO skins: Your account must have Steam Guard fully activated (it takes 15 days of being enabled to become fully active), and no other trade restrictions on your account. These other restrictions mostly come from recent account changes, such as your password.
- Choose which CS skins you want: Browse the listings on our CS2 marketplace, using the search filters to narrow your search as needed, and pick the skin(s) you’re interested in trading for, whether that be a cheap knife skin at a good deal, or the most expensive CSGO skin!
- Check your inventory and trade balance: If your inventory items + trade balance are enough to cover the value of the CS skins you want to purchase, you’re all set. If not, you can deposit crypto or cash through easy deposit methods like PayPal or your credit/debit card and add to your trade balance instantly in order to cover the value of the trade!
- Trade instantly with our CS skins trade bot: Click the “Trade Now!” button, and head over to your Steam trade offers page. Our CSGO trading bot will have sent the skins trade within seconds. Accept it, and enjoy your new skins!
How does Skinflow trade balance work?
Your trade balance on Skinflow is very easy to use on both our “Buy” page and “Trade” page! You can add trade balance to your account by making a crypto deposit, or paying via PayPal or your debit/credit card.
- Add value to a trade if your CS skins aren’t worth enough to cover the trade value.
- Buy CSGO skins, AK-47 skins, AWP skins, or CSGO knives at a good deal without trading your own items.
- Store leftover value from trades (if the value of the CS2 skins you traded was worth more than the skins you received) that you can use for future skin transactions on Skinflow!
Can I withdraw my trade balance?
No, unfortunately trade balance on Skinflow cannot be withdrawn, as this would cause Skinflow to essentially operate like a crypto exchange, (e.g., you could deposit ETH and withdraw BTC). However, you can always find cheap CSGO skins and good deals on our CS skins marketplace, so your balance is always valuable!
How to protect yourself from API/Phishing Scams when trading on Skinflow
Protecting your CS2 and CSGO skins from CS skin phishing scams (incorrectly but commonly referred to as API scams) is easy - as long as you stay alert and follow a few key steps. Even when you're using a trusted CS2 marketplace like Skinflow to trade CS2 skins, it's essential to understand how phishing scams work and how to avoid them.
How do these scams work?
A CS skin phishing scam occurs when you log into a scam website that is designed to look like a real Counter-Strike related website. You enter your Steam username and password, and the scam website uses them to log into your Steam account. Even if you have Steam Guard enabled, you end up approving the login request on your phone, thinking it was made by yourself. Once the scammers have access, they wait for you to make or accept a real trade offer (like trading AK-47 skins or AWP skins to CS skins trade bot), cancel that offer, and immediately send a similar fake trade offer to their own Steam account, hoping you won’t notice the difference, and confirm that trade on the Steam mobile app.
How to prevent these scams:
Staying safe when using a CSGO marketplace like Skinflow is all about double-checking every CS2 skins trade before you confirm it on your mobile phone.
- Is it the same Skinflow bot that sent you the trade? Confirm that the Steam account you're trading with has the same account name (typically something such as “Skinflow BOT#11”), profile picture, and account creation date as the original Skinflow bot you accepted the CSGO trade offer from.
- What if you notice a trade has been altered? If you notice that the trade offer you originally accepted from a Skinflow Bot has changed or the account seems suspicious, your Steam account may be compromised. Here's how to fix that immediately:
- Deauthorize all devices (https://store.steampowered.com/twofactor/manage).
- Change your Steam password.
- Deauthorize all devices again (https://store.steampowered.com/twofactor/manage).
Skinflow vs. Other Trading Methods: What's the Best Way to Trade CS2 Skins?
If you're looking to trade CS2 skins or buy CS:GO skins efficiently, securely, and with low fees, there are several options — but not all are created equal. Here's a breakdown of how Skinflow compares to Steam trading and P2P marketplaces in terms of ease, time, pricing, fees, and security.
| Method | Skinflow | P2P Steam Trading | P2P Marketplaces |
|---|---|---|---|
| Ease | Trading your CS2 Skins doesn’t get easier than with Skinflow. Simply pick the CSGO skins you want to trade and what skins you’d like in return: the trade is instant and only takes a few clicks. | Trading directly with other players on Steam is typically regarded as an outdated method and frustrating to do. In order to find the item you want, you either have to sift through hundreds of inventories or hundreds of social media trading posts. | Most P2P marketplaces aren’t direct trading platforms - they require you to sell your CSGO skins first in order to obtain balance on the site, and then buy other CS2 skins with that balance. |
| Time | You won't find a faster way to trade your CS skins faster than by using Skinflow’s instant trading page. Your new skins are delivered within seconds through our automated bot trading system! | Trading with other players on Steam takes quite some time - from finding someone to trade with to negotiating good prices, to posting skin trading advertisements yourself. | Selling skins on P2P marketplaces can be quick if you underprice them, but if you want to get a good deal for your CSGO skins, you may wait days or weeks for a buyer. |
| Pricing | Skinflow uses real-time pricing based off of Buff163 (the most accurate pricing source). When trading on Skinflow you’ll never have to worry about overpriced skins. | With Steam trading, It’s up to you to figure out an accurate price for each item. Even with helpful pricing extensions there can be inaccuracies. | P2P platforms can offer accurate pricing on popular items, but some rare or manipulated skins can be massively overpriced. |
| Fees | Skinflow charges cheap 4-7% fees, making us one of the best CS2 skin trading platforms for low fees and ease of use. | Fees for trading directly on Steam vary wildly depending on who you trade with. Some players may ask for small overpays (~5%), while others demand 10-15% margins or more. | P2P marketplace fees range from as low as 2% to over 15%, depending on the platform. Steam Market has some of the highest fees. |
| Security | With over 100,000 users, a 4.7-star Trustpilot rating, and $2.5M+ in transaction volume, Skinflow is a safe CS2 trading platform that you can trust. | Steam trades can be risky, as there is always a high chance of encountering a scammer. Trading safely requires experience. | Many P2P marketplaces are pretty secure, but others can be sketchy. Always be diligent! |
Frequently Asked Questions
What are CSGO skin trading sites?
CS skin trading sites are third-party platforms where you can buy, sell, and trade CSGO and CS2 skins outside of Steam, and the Steam Community Market. These sites act as better alternatives to Steam’s marketplace, since they offer lower fees (typically), faster transactions, and the ability to cash out your skins for real money.
What is the best CS trade site?
Skinflow is the best site to trade CS2 and CSGO skins due to our low fees, instant trades, and strong reputation as a trusted CS2 skin trading site.
How can I trade my CS2 skins safely?
The safest way to trade CS2 skins is by using a trusted CSGO trading site like Skinflow.gg. With a 4.7-star rating on Trustpilot and over $2.5 million in sales across more than 35,000 transactions, we are one of the most trustworthy CS2 skin trading sites available.
What is the difference between CS bot trading sites and P2P skin trading?
The main difference between CS bot trading sites and P2P skin trading marketplaces is who you’re trading with.
- On bot trading sites like Skinflow, you trade directly with the site’s automated Steam trading bots. This allows for instant CS2 skin trades, and an easier trading experience.
- On P2P marketplaces, you list your skins and wait for other players to buy them. While this can sometimes lead to lower fees or good deals on CSGO skins, the process is much slower (it can take days to weeks), more complicated, and less predictable.
