No single market is cheapest for every skin. Prices shift by the hour and depend on the exact wear, float and StatTrak, so the smart move is to compare the same item everywhere before you buy. SkinWise does that automatically: every item page shows the cheapest live listing across all 26 markets, and the deals feed surfaces the biggest price gaps right now. The deepest catalogs we track are Steam Community Market, HaloSkins, CSFloat. Start from the full catalog or one of our best-of guides.
When selling, the trading fee decides how much you keep. The lowest-fee markets we currently track are LOOT.Farm (0.0%), Tradeit.gg (0.0%), SkinsMonkey (0.0%). Each review breaks down the real cut, what you net on a $100 sale, payout methods and how fast the cash actually arrives. Avoid the Steam Community Market if you want real money: its ~15% fee stays locked to your Steam wallet.
We only list established, clean markets, no gambling or case-opening sites. Every marketplace gets an honest review covering legitimacy, escrow and buyer protection, payout reliability and the exact fee. Read the full reviews for Steam Community Market, HaloSkins, CSFloat, Market.CSGO, Skinport and the rest of the 26 markets above.
There is no single cheapest market for every skin: prices move constantly and the best deal depends on the exact item, wear and StatTrak. That is why SkinWise compares the live price of each skin across all 26 marketplaces and shows you the cheapest one for that variant. Start from the item page or the deals feed rather than committing to one site.
To keep the most money, sell where the trading fee is lowest. Right now the lowest-fee markets we track are LOOT.Farm (0.0%), Tradeit.gg (0.0%), SkinsMonkey (0.0%). On a $100 sale the fee is the difference between roughly $100 and $85 in your pocket, so it matters.
The established markets we list use escrow, buyer protection and 2FA, and we exclude gambling and case-opening sites entirely. Each marketplace review covers the company's track record, payout reliability and how disputes are handled so you can judge trust before you trade.
The Steam Community Market charges around 15% and locks funds to your Steam wallet, so you can never cash out. Third-party markets charge lower trading fees (often 5% to 10%) and pay out to real money, which is why most sellers use them. Each review breaks down the exact fee and payout speed.
