Frequently Asked Questions
What's the difference between Factory New and Minimal Wear for the AWP | BOOM?
Factory New (FN) skins have float values between 0.00-0.07, showing minimal to no visible wear. Minimal Wear (MW) floats range from 0.07-0.15, with slight scratches or fading visible on close inspection. For the AWP | BOOM, the price difference between FN and MW can range from 10% to over 100% depending on how visible the wear is on this particular finish. Some finishes hide wear better than others, making MW versions excellent value alternatives.
Is the AWP | BOOM worth the price?
The AWP | BOOM sits in the mid-to-high price bracket, offering strong value for several reasons: It features a distinctive BOOM design that stands out in-game, maintains good liquidity for trading, and has historically held its value well. For players who main the AWP, this skin offers an excellent balance of visual appeal and investment stability compared to budget alternatives.
What is the float value range for the AWP | BOOM?
Float values in CS2 determine a skin's wear level on a scale from 0.00 (perfect) to 1.00 (maximum wear). This skin cannot be obtained in Factory New condition due to its minimum float of 0.06. The best possible condition is Minimal Wear. Lower float values within any condition category (e.g., 0.01 vs 0.06 in Factory New) result in cleaner appearances and typically command higher prices. For high-value trades, always verify the exact float value using inspection tools.
Where is the cheapest place to buy the AWP | BOOM?
Prices vary across marketplaces due to fees, regional pricing, and seller competition. The Steam Community Market is convenient but charges 15% fees.
