CS Trader Faces ‘Worst Nightmare’ as Friend Makes Costly Mistake Selling $40,000 Skin at a Massive Loss

This is possibly the most astounding deal Counter Strike has seen. While you might have some interesting nominees for the ‘Best Deal’, here’s one deal that has to top your list. Imagine selling one of the rarest skins in the CS universe on ten percent of your pitch! Sounds like a real bummer deal, right? Well, it looks like a CS collector had their ‘worst nightmare’ turn true due to a massive blunder. 

Valve’s CS: GO has been one popular FPS title especially when it comes to in-game trading. A lot of players manage to make good profits by selling their CS collections through trading. Of course, the values often depend on the popularity and rareness of the skin. So, what price would you account for an AK-47 Asiimov in the Counter-Strike world? Don’t strain yourself with calculations because it looks like some good fortune may land you the deal for just $4,000! 

CS Trader makes a huge blunder costing him a loss of 36,000 dollars

Recently, a hilarious incident about a CS trading deal went viral on social media, inviting a lot of attention from the FPS community. A player sold the AK-47 Asiimov skin for just $4,000. But why? Because they missed out on adding another 0 to the offer. Whoever said zero has no value needs to think again.

An insider took to the internet and revealed the incident. As per the claim, his friend had borrowed the skin and was told to sell it, then forgot to add the extra zero. The seller accepted the offer while driving, so he didn’t double-check the amount. Upon realizing the blunder, the trader requested the buyer to reconsider the deal. “I know I made a mistake, but I hope I can communicate with the new buyer and give me a chance, okay?I know this is a fortune for you, but it will ruin my life,” the player tweeted. 

However, the buyer seemed to be in no mood for reconsideration. After the bummer incident, the buyer posted a meme referencing the fortunate ‘deal of a lifetime’. 

For reference, Asiimov isn’t just any other one of 255 Rifle skins. The rarity of the skin is Covert, which makes the Asiimov a super rare drop with an estimated drop chance of only 0.64%.

Fans are jealous of the buyer 

While the discussions about the incident began, some funny reactions poured in. The players came together to take a jibe at the unlucky incident. Let’s have a look at some interesting reactions.
