hey guys, i am new to subeta and i am trying to figure out if there is a easy way to covert currency. any help would be awesome. thx a bunch. :-)
it's purposeful that there's not a way to do this.
Hi, and welcome to Subeta! ^_^
The reason there is no official currency conversion is to ensure the prices vary as supply/demand fluctuates and is based on user need/supply. c: The only real official currency conversion is for lounge->steamworks trinkets and vice versa, at a 2:1 ratio both ways. You can usually get a better deal by trading with other users.
Here's a link to a handy currency conversion pricing guide!
Most currencies can be bought and sold via your shop/shop search, or via trades. People also often advertise selling/buying currencies in the Advertising/Wanted subforums, although unfortunately the Advertising subforum is (mostly) down at the moment. :c
Let me know if you need any further help/info! (@ me or I won't see that you've replied!)
NB: If you're selling CSC, buy gift cards from the cash shop and sell them in your shop. Don't discount them from shop search unless you really want to - they usually sell pretty quickly. c: They've been selling at 9-10m per 100 CSC lately.
These are not really currencies, they are game scrip.
The reason the currencies are not officially frangible or fungible is because they are meant to encourage people to play the game of Subeta instead of arb-ing currency or sailing close to the wind financially by speculating on/about/with some official agio. The reason there are so many currencies is to encourage individual participation in different holiday activities, separate from the main economy of subetapoints. This prevents established players from dominating these activities with their already amassed capital.
It helps to know if there is a specific currency you are after, because advice would fluctuate based on your goals and when you're asking. Is there one in particular that you want?
