CS2 and CS:GO Skin Prices
Skin value is not a single number - it moves with wear, pattern and StatTrak. This guide maps popular rifle, pistol and sniper finishes across the five wear tiers so you can see how float shifts price. Every figure below is an illustrative example for research only, not a live market quote. Confirm the current price on the market you actually trade on before you buy, sell or open a case.
The basics
What determines a skin's price
Four variables do almost all the work when you look at CS2 skin prices. Learn them and any listing stops being a mystery.
1
The finish
The base skin and its rarity tier set the ballpark. A covert rifle or a classified sniper starts far higher than a mil-spec blue, before wear or StatTrak enter the picture.
2
Wear (float)
A hidden 0-1 float decides the visible condition, from Factory New down to Battle-Scarred. Cleaner examples usually cost more, sometimes several times more on the same skin.
3
Pattern index
The random seed controls how the artwork lands. Blue-heavy Case Hardened, low-float fades and favourable Doppler phases command their own premiums.
The fourth variable - StatTrak - adds a live kill counter and its own premium; both get their own sections below. Supply and demand tie everything together: a discontinued collection finish holds value while a fresh drop-pool skin stays cheap.
Condition
The five wear tiers
Every skin is rolled into one of five wear brackets based on its float. The bracket is the single biggest driver of the spread you see in the table below.
| Wear tier | Float range | What it looks like | Typical price effect |
|---|---|---|---|
| Factory New | 0.00 - 0.07 | Crisp, almost no scratching | Highest |
| Minimal Wear | 0.07 - 0.15 | Very light wear on edges | High |
| Field-Tested | 0.15 - 0.38 | Visible wear, still colourful | Mid |
| Well-Worn | 0.38 - 0.45 | Heavy scuffing across the finish | Low |
| Battle-Scarred | 0.45 - 1.00 | Faded, heavily worn artwork | Lowest |
Not every skin exists in every tier - some finishes have float caps that mean a Factory New copy is impossible, which itself creates scarcity and lifts prices for the cleanest available wear.
Price guide
Skin price table by wear
Illustrative ranges for popular finishes across three wear tiers. Read across a row to see how much value a skin sheds as float climbs from Factory New to Battle-Scarred.
| Skin | Rarity | Factory New | Field-Tested | Battle-Scarred |
|---|---|---|---|---|
| AK-47 | Bloodsport | Classified | $180 | $52 | $28 |
| Desert Eagle | Printstream | Covert | $210 | $68 | $38 |
| M4A1-S | Printstream | Covert | $260 | $88 | $45 |
| AWP | Hyper Beast | Covert | $95 | $34 | $22 |
| M4A4 | Poseidon | Covert | $320 | $140 | $95 |
| M4A4 | Neo-Noir | Covert | $70 | $32 | $18 |
| AWP | Desert Hydra | Covert | $650 | $300 | $120 |
| AWP | CMYK | Classified | $34 | $16 | $9 |

Variants
StatTrak premiums
StatTrak adds a live kill counter to a skin and is rarer than the standard variant, so it almost always carries a premium. On popular finishes that premium usually lands between roughly 10 and 40 percent, but on low-supply skins it can be far larger.
| Skin | Rarity | Standard (FT) | StatTrak (FT) | Approx premium |
|---|---|---|---|---|
| AK-47 | Bloodsport | Classified | $52 | $68 | ~30% |
| Desert Eagle | Printstream | Covert | $68 | $92 | ~35% |
| M4A1-S | Printstream | Covert | $88 | $118 | ~34% |
| AWP | Hyper Beast | Covert | $34 | $41 | ~20% |
StatTrak does not change the wear tier or the pattern - it is a separate flag layered on top. That means a StatTrak Battle-Scarred can still be cheaper than a standard Factory New of the same skin, because wear usually outweighs the counter.
Seeds and phases
Rare patterns and their premiums
Two copies of the same skin at the same wear can still be worth wildly different amounts because of the pattern index - the random seed that decides how the artwork lands on the weapon.
◆
Case Hardened blues
The percentage of blue on a Case Hardened finish is set by the seed. A near-fully-blue AK pattern can sell for many multiples of an average tan roll of the same wear.
★
Fades and low floats
Full 100% fades and record-low float examples are hunted by collectors. A tiny float advantage on a clean finish can add a meaningful premium to the asking price.
◈
Doppler phases
Doppler and Gamma Doppler finishes come in phases - plus rare Ruby, Sapphire and Black Pearl variants - each with its own following and price ceiling.
Because pattern premiums sit on top of the wear-based price, the ranges in the main table describe typical rolls only. Standout seeds trade privately and can exceed those numbers by a wide margin.
Method
How to check a live price
The ranges here build intuition; the real figure always comes from the market. Work through these four checks before you commit to any trade.
1
Fix the exact item
Note the precise finish, its wear tier, whether it is StatTrak and the pattern index. Those four together define the item you are actually pricing.
2
Read sold listings
Compare recent sold prices for that exact combination, not asking prices. Sold data reflects what buyers really paid, which is what matters.
3
Account for fees
Marketplace fees, cashout costs and regional pricing all move the net figure. Factor them in so you compare like with like across markets.
Put a price to your next skin
Confirm you are 18+ and continue to the external case opening platform, or keep researching prices in the stash first - the choice is yours.
FAQ
CS2 skin prices - frequently asked questions
Why does the same CS2 skin have several different prices?
A single finish is really many listings. Wear (float), pattern index and whether the item carries StatTrak all change the value, so a Factory New copy of a covert rifle can be worth several times a Battle-Scarred copy of the exact same skin.
What is float and how does it affect skin prices?
Float is a hidden value between 0 and 1 that sets the visible wear of a skin, mapped to Factory New, Minimal Wear, Field-Tested, Well-Worn and Battle-Scarred. Lower floats look cleaner and usually sell for more, so price tends to fall as float rises.
How much does StatTrak add to a skin's price?
StatTrak adds a live kill counter and is rarer than the normal variant, so it usually carries a premium of roughly 10 to 40 percent on popular finishes. On some low-supply skins the StatTrak premium can be much larger.
Are the skin prices on this page live market quotes?
No. Every figure on StashClash Guru is an illustrative example for research and learning. Always confirm the live price on the marketplace you actually trade on before you buy, sell or open a case.
Do rare patterns really change the price that much?
Yes. Certain pattern seeds - blue-heavy Case Hardened finishes, low-float fades, favourable Doppler phases - are far scarcer than an average roll of the same skin and can sell for multiples of the standard price.
How do I check a live price for a skin?
Note the exact finish, its wear tier, whether it is StatTrak and the pattern index, then compare recent sold listings for that precise combination on your chosen market. Use the ranges on this page to build intuition before you check.
