How CS2 skin prices work

A CS2 skin's price is set by supply and demand on each marketplace, and five things drive it: rarity, exterior and float, StatTrak™ or Souvenir quality, how many copies exist, and where it is sold.

What drives a CS2 skin's price
Price driverWhat it changes
RarityCovert skins drop in about 0.64% of case openings, so they cost far more than Mil-Spec skins from the same case. Rarity tiers explained
Exterior and floatFactory New copies usually cost the most. Some skins can't reach every exterior: the AWP | Asiimov starts at 0.18 float, so no Factory New exists.
StatTrak™ and SouvenirStatTrak™ is about 1 in 10 case drops and usually costs more. Souvenirs can be historical package drops or converted weapons; their tournament provenance matters.
SupplyCases that leave the weekly drop pool stop adding new copies, which can push older skins up over time.
Where it's soldSteam Market balances can't be cashed out, so Steam prices usually sit above the cheapest third-party total. BO5's median Steam premium is 32.7%.
How it is calculated

Median of (Steam ask / lowest fee-inclusive third-party price - 1), using the same skin, exterior, quality and phase. Only standard-quality states with at least 20 listings qualify; Steam's all-phase Doppler quote is never compared to one phase. Data through 2026-11-03.

How BO5 lists prices

  • Prices come from each marketplace's own data feed, plus the Steam Community Market. BO5 tracks White.market and the Steam Market.
  • “You pay” includes each marketplace's buyer fee.
  • Rows are sorted by the total you pay. Partner status never changes the order.
  • Each row shows when it was last updated; popular items refresh at least every 15 minutes. Rows gray out after 6 hours without fresh data and hide after 24 hours.
  • BO5 may earn a commission from marketplace links.

How to get skins in CS2

You can get CS2 skins five ways: weekly drops, opening cases, trade-up contracts, the Armory, or buying them from another player on a marketplace.

Weekly drops

Leveling up your CS2 profile each week earns a care package, picked from a rotating drop pool.

Current drop pool

Cases and terminals

Opening a case needs a $2.49 key, and odds are fixed by rarity.

Best cases to open

Trade-ups

Ten skins of one rarity from a collection give one skin of the next rarity up.

The Armory

Armory credits from the Armory Pass unlock some cases and limited collections.

Marketplaces

Buying directly is the only way to choose the exact skin, float and stickers.

CS2 skin questions

Do CS2 skins wear out?

No. A skin's float value is fixed when it drops and never changes, however much you play with it. A Field-Tested skin stays Field-Tested forever. Only applied stickers wear, and only when you scrape them.

Can you sell CS2 skins for real money?

Yes, on third-party marketplaces that pay out to a bank, card or crypto wallet. Money from the Steam Community Market stays in your Steam wallet and can only be spent on Steam. Payout methods, fees and trade holds differ by marketplace, which is why the price you receive also varies.

What is a Souvenir skin in CS2?

A Souvenir is a commemorative weapon tied to a Major match. Older copies came from souvenir packages; the Cologne 2026 Souvenir-O-Matic also converted eligible existing guns. Package provenance and a converted Souvenir are not the same thing.

Can you trade up Souvenir skins?

Yes. Since Valve's May 2026 update, Souvenir skins can join normal-quality trade-ups. Their Souvenir attributes are removed and the output is normal quality. StatTrak™ inputs still form a separate contract.

Is a skin changer bannable in CS2?

Downloadable skin changers modify the game client, which breaks Valve's rules and can get your account banned. Many also carry malware. Server-side skin plugins on community servers, like BO5's inspect servers, are different: they run on the server, change nothing on your PC and are VAC-safe.
