Frequently Asked Questions
What's the difference between Factory New and Minimal Wear for the SSG 08 | Blue Spruce?
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 SSG 08 | Blue Spruce, 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 SSG 08 | Blue Spruce a good budget option?
Yes, the SSG 08 | Blue Spruce is an excellent budget-friendly choice. Priced affordably, it offers the Blue Spruce aesthetic without breaking the bank. Budget skins like this are ideal for players building their first inventory or those who prefer spending on multiple skins rather than one expensive item. 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 SSG 08 | Blue Spruce?
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 SSG 08 | Blue Spruce?
Prices vary across marketplaces due to fees, regional pricing, and seller competition. The Steam Community Market is convenient but charges 15% fees.
