#1 they have no way to know Steam's sales, Valve NEVER publishes them
#2 source is FADE aka vgchartz aka not reliable

tl;dr the info is not reliable at all

Uh.. But this is how Steam works. You pay real money for digital items (games).
TF2 hats are no different in that respect.

not sure if you're trying to be clever or not, but no.. a digital item is not the same as a digital entertainment product. you KNOW what i mean, theres no need for a comment like that just for the sake of pointing out a technicality.

unless you're really suggesting that a real hat is the same as a store-bought game, because they are both tangible items? yeah sure i guess you could argue that, but not in any relevant manner, come on...
