I'm not in an asian Time Zone, but I'll throw it out there again cause it's beautiful when Bay12'ers get together to frag eachother, that I play too much and I'm open to friend requests:

Hey, all. I just went premium recently, and was wondering if I had anything worth trading or selling. I'm not even really sure what's valuable, but I trust B12 to not screw me over too badly.

Holy crap, why did I not start watching One Punch Man earlier? This is the best thing.

Well, that site you linked tells you the value of all your items. Your Rancho Relaxo is the most valuable item in your possession, at a staggering value of 2(!!) dollars.

And I'm guessing that you ascended to premium by buying pink paint, that you then used to paint your Ghastlier Gibus??

My Gibus has been pink for a long time. I got the paint on a random-drop over a year ago. I bought the Pretty Boy's Pocket Pistol. Wanted a new Scout gun, although I don't scout very often.

Hmm, I wasn't even aware that paint could drop for non-premium players. The more you know I guess.

But Welcome to Premium.

You don't really need to worry about trading right now, unless you want to cash out the Rancho Relaxo for a ton of refined metal, which you can then turn around and trade for unique versions of every weapon in the game with. It's not necessary at all, mind you, but you'll never be left with that thought of "Oh I wish I had that weapon" cause you'll have it. EDIT: Though personally, I'd advise holding on to that taunt. It's SUPER AWESOME.

But please don't buy weapons from the mann co. store :X That's an awful waste of money, when you could get premium with something harmless like a giftapult that only costs like 10 cents. Or if you're intent on something more expensive, buy a key or something that'll hold its value :I

Oh, no worries. I didn't spend any actual money. I got the cash from selling trading cards. Also, whatever it was that I actually bought, it was only $.49 to begin with.

Then PFFFT, take your purchased noncraftable Buff Banner and HORN IT UP.

Well that 10 cent giftapult is waiting for you. Unless you want to withhold the dime just outta the principle of the matter.

If you bought it then you do. I would know, since I did and do.

I know I should be since I have the Proof of Purchase, but as far as I can tell I've never had a non-free drop.  I guess I do have the backpack expansion though.

OH OK then, but I should let you know that premium drops are VERY rare. It's noteworthy when you get one, cause it'll probably only happen every 200 or so hours of playtime. The really unlucky people will only get one every 500 hours or so. Every hat drop I've ever gotten could be counted on both hands, and even then only maybe.

I was actually kinda surprised to see that Max got a taunt drop, like LITERALLY just after turning premium. That's astounding, jaw-dropping good luck. I've never got a taunt drop ever.

Valve playing really close to the chest with the hat/taunt drops yo. But surprisingly enough, it keeps the hatconomy afloat just with the sheer number of people that play :O

The hat drop thing is a lie, I've gotten atleast 12 hat drops with 1230 hours.

I'm a lucky sumbitch. Managed to get 3 hats back when the idler was a thing; I ended up losing one of them because I only managed to get one hat while using the idler program. The one I lost was the Engineer's only hat at the time, the Mining Light, and I happened to get another one about 4 hours after the first one (two hats in a row at the time, which was less than a 1/100000 chance to happen IIRC; the drop system was different then). Now, I have plenty hats.
