Frequently Asked Questions

Yes. Looking up any public inventory and seeing its full value and item-by-item breakdown is completely free.

No. You can value any public Steam inventory just by entering a Steam ID, no sign-in required. Signing in with Steam only unlocks tools for your own inventory, such as history tracking and manual refreshes.

You can paste a 64-bit Steam ID, a custom (vanity) URL name, or a full Steam profile link. Fullbuy resolves it to the right account and loads that account's public CS2 inventory.

We account for many of these where we can, because they can significantly change an item's value. Not every rare pattern is tracked yet, and we are always improving it. You can read more about float and wear, Doppler phases and stickers and charms on our blog.

Prices are refreshed regularly from third-party market data so valuations stay close to the live market. Because skin prices move constantly, every figure is a current estimate rather than a fixed price. There is more on where our prices come from on the blog.

In Steam, open your profile, go to Edit Profile, then Privacy Settings, and set both "My profile" and "Inventory" to Public. Once your inventory is public, Fullbuy can load and value it.

Steam has a 7-day trade hold on recently traded items, but they won't appear in your public inventory until 10 days after the trade completes. This means there's a 3-day visibility delay after the trade hold ends. This is a Steam restriction, not a limitation of our site.

We source our pricing data from third-party market APIs. Different sites use different data sources and update frequencies, so small price variations are normal. Market prices fluctuate constantly, so exact values vary between platforms.

Furthermore, while we account for some rare patterns, floats, and phases, not all are tracked. We intend to improve this in time.

Also, low-tier or common items may sometimes have no listings on third-party sites. If someone lists such an item at an unrealistic price (e.g., $10 for a 3-cent skin), it can temporarily inflate your inventory value if you own that item. These anomalies typically correct themselves as more realistic listings appear.

We require Steam authentication to prevent abuse of our force refresh system.

To prevent abuse and respect Steam's API rate limits, we limit force refreshes to once every 24 hours. If you're on a PRO plan, your inventory will automatically refresh daily, so you don't need to manually refresh at all.

Yes! You can view anyone's public Steam inventory by entering their Steam ID. However, you can only force refresh your own inventory (after signing in).

This can happen if your Steam inventory is set to private, if Steam's API is temporarily down, or if you have no CS2 items. Make sure your Steam profile and inventory privacy settings are set to "Public" in your Steam privacy settings.

Yes. Add a "k" to the start of any Steam profile link, so steamcommunity.com/profiles/76561... becomes ksteamcommunity.com/profiles/76561..., and Fullbuy loads that inventory instantly. It works with both the /profiles/ and /id/ (vanity) URL formats.
