Frequently Asked Questions
What's the difference between Factory New and Minimal Wear for the SG 553 | Anodized Navy?

Minimal Wear (MW) floats range from 0.07-0.15, with slight scratches or fading visible on close inspection. For the SG 553 | Anodized Navy, 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.

Yes, the SG 553 | Anodized Navy is an excellent budget-friendly choice. Priced affordably, it offers the Anodized Navy aesthetic without breaking the bank.

The lower price point also means less financial risk if you decide to trade or sell later.
What is the float value range for the SG 553 | Anodized Navy?
Float values in CS2 determine a skin's wear level on a scale from 0.00 (perfect) to 1.00 (maximum wear). This is a restricted float skin that can only drop in Factory New or near-FN condition, making all examples relatively clean. 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.

Prices vary across marketplaces due to fees, regional pricing, and seller competition. The Steam Community Market is convenient but charges 15% fees.
