Sharking and Scamming are often used interchangeably with each other. But should they? Let's find out.
You guys may notice that I didn't talk at all about steamrep and their policies regarding sharking. I think im gonna leave that for another video :P
If you are waiting for the next keys/refined video, it is currently in production. Hopefully it will be the next video out but it is taking awhile to edit. c:

So, I never thought I would make an unboxing video, but maybe since literally everyone else has already unboxed an unusual, I figured I might as well give it a shot. And honestly, I dont think it turned out too badly :P
This was actually my first live commentary ever, so forgive me if it isnt top-notch muselk quality lol.
Outro music: Ross Bugden - Something Wicked

So I was trying to hold off on making another one of these until after the Pyro Update hit, but apparently it still isnt out, so I guess Im not gonna wait any longer. With my luck the update will come out later today and everything in this video will be irreverent to you guys. ¯_(ツ)_/¯

You guys probably didnt think this was coming this soon, but here is the second (super long) video about trading strategies! At this point I think its safe to assume the pyro update will never come out, so whats the point in trying to upload around it. :P
Also, I hinted at future episodes a number of times in the video, so I figure I should lay it out to be clear. There will be two more episodes in my unusual trading guide,
Episode 9: High/God Tier Trading, and
Episode 10: Cashing Out
Right now I am kind-of burnt out on making trading guides, but Im sure these last two episodes will be out by the end of the summer :)

![[TF2] Keys, Refined and the Currency Disaster (Part 3): The Solution](https://i.ytimg.com/vi/zHcDbb9cAWE/mqdefault.jpg "[TF2] Keys, Refined and the Currency Disaster (Part 3): The Solution
Valve has let keys increase in metal since they were added to the game. But what steps could Valve take to revert this? Lets find out.
For those who will inevitably comment below about this, this video is based on the assumption that Valve will do something about the key to refined problem. Sure, it might not seem likely, but even making this video helps bring up the discussion again, which is exactly what we need for Valve to see :P

Keys have been increasing in metal for quite some time now. But why is this really happening and how does it effect the economy? Lets find out.
Man, this video has been in the works for awhile now. I hope you guys really enjoy it! Hopefully the economics parts didnt fly over your heads :P
