Have you tried again?
Just did and the issue surrounding their lag has substantially improved [was probably due to their servers].

P.S. They advertise their stores/services on Sythe, but mostly do the talking on Discord.
Unfortunately, Discord isn't an option due to my current location [I can't even access it with a VPN or dedicated IP; I have to use Tor and I prefer not to].

I think I'll just use CS.Deals for the missing items from Skins.cash. Regardless of that, thank you for your suggestion Smiley

Sorry, I should've been clearer... I was referring to its UI/UX being unresponsive.
- Main page loads normally [almost] but it took a couple of minutes for other pages to load [I've tried both with and without a VPN connection].
- It probably has something to do with their servers.



Oh wow. I've been using that site for like 8 years now and I can confidently say that this level of lag on that website hasn't occurred to me once(besides my own internet problems). Have you tried again? This is definitely not normal, and I use a VPN as well.

What do you mean by "wasn't that responsive"? You referring to the UI/UX or are you saying that people don't respond?

Thank you for your suggestion but it doesn't seem to tick all the boxes and their forum wasn't that responsive [not sure if it was just on my side].

Have you tried Skins.cash?
Just did [thanks to you] and it looks like we can also sell our cases in there Smiley
- Having said that, some of the items aren't shown [either due to their AI or because of its type].

It should tick all the boxes except for the fees/rates, which I'm not so sure about.
Not sure about the normal fees but they do charge 15% for accounts with a trade hold status.
- I have to wait 7 days due to not having the mobile authenticator app installed on my phone.



If you want non-KYC peer-to-peer, head over to Sythe[1].

If you want non-KYC peer-to-peer, head over to Sythe[1]. It's pretty much the de-facto gaming markets forum that's being used since forever. Something like a Bitcointalk for gaming skins. It might not be as user-friendly because you'd have to talk to people manually, but yea it's P2P.

Watch out for scammers, of course.

Have you tried Skins.cash? It should tick all the boxes except for the fees/rates, which I'm not so sure about.

Unlike with other sites, this one allows you to instantly sell the skins to the site. From my experience (a long time ago), the fees were not fixed so it might depend on the type/rarity of the skin you're trying to sell.

The other day, I stumbled upon a thread that was about gamers earning BTCitcoins, and two of the comments that mentioned "BitSkins" caught my attention [#3 and #5]. I did some digging and it looks like it requires users to go through some sort of KYC process, so I looked around for alternative options and the closest that I could find was CS.Deals but the main issue with it is their userbase; In other words, I have to price my skins lower than other marketplaces and even then, it takes a while before I could sell those.

Note: I already checked all of the mentioned alternatives [CS.Deals, Skinport, SkinBaron, and LootBear] from the following two threads [thread #1 and thread #2] and none of them seem to tick all the boxes...

I'm after the following things:

  • Non-KYC marketplace
  • Support for BTCitcoin payments
  • A similar amount of traffic [or userbase] to BitSkins
  • Reasonable fee
  • Legit

Does anyone know a better BitSkins alternative than CS.Deals?
