Frequently Asked Questions

Prices are calculated from aggregate market data supplied by CSGOSKINS. The radar validates available cash-market signals, removes suspicious outliers, and keeps Steam Market pricing separate where available. Individual marketplace prices are not published.

The server synchronizes prices in the background, normally every five minutes. Pages load the latest completed database snapshot, so opening or refreshing the site does not trigger a full API scan.

The item may not have enough recent, consistent market sources to produce a verified radar price. Skin Radar keeps uncertain one-market spikes away from alerts and waits for stronger market confirmation.

The exact Steam market name may not yet match an item in the current price snapshot, or the item may be non-tradable. Non-tradable collectibles and items without a reliable market price are excluded from portfolio value calculations.

Your Steam inventory must be public. Steam can also temporarily rate-limit or reject inventory requests. Confirm your inventory privacy settings, wait a few minutes, and scan again.

24H % is the verified percentage movement from the nearest stored price around 24 hours ago. 24H $ is the corresponding dollar change. Volume represents the aggregate market activity supplied for the item and may differ from completed sales.

Add an item to your watchlist and configure its buy or sell thresholds. The background price scan checks verified prices and sends eligible notifications. Delivery timing can also depend on your email provider.

Unverified spikes are deliberately blocked. A single abnormal listing or unsupported source must not trigger a notification. Also check your email address, notification settings, threshold, and spam folder.

Authentication uses Steam OpenID. Skin Radar receives your public Steam identity and never receives or stores your Steam password. Always confirm that the login page is on Steam's official domain.

No. Skin Radar is a market analytics, portfolio, and alert service. It does not operate a marketplace, hold user funds, transfer skins, or provide financial advice.

The free plan supports a small active watchlist. Plus and Pro plans provide larger watchlists and additional history or alert features. Current limits are shown on the Membership page.
