How do you feel about not being able to obtain dirty items?
Well wasn't the only way to get dirty items from the Mann Co. Store? Well it looks like they are all clean.. Do you think it will change the whole TF2-cononmy? Like maybe ruin it or maybe increase the value of dirty items?

Every wep/misc/hat you buy is clean.

Not weapons.

I kinda prefer this way, less confusion less people riped off, less people giving dirty weps to scrapbankers and at some point its kinda guaranteed that the uncraft stuff will be worth more then the clean stuff.

Maybe uncraftable hats would be worth more?

I was going to pay a good bit for this kid's clean Last Breath with no craft #, but now it won't be worth shit because you can get the same thing from the MannCo store.

wouldn't this make vintages and genuines skyrocket? since it proves its not a stupid dirty hat

Uncraftables would be worth a lot.
P.S.: After all, remember the volcano shard?

The shard was never worth alot, it was just hype and price manipulation, same thing with the Archimedes and the Balloonicorn

In my opinion, it kind of sucks, if dirty hats rise in value then it will defeat the purpose of trying to get a dirty hat in the first place, i just hope they won't be worth more then their craftable counterparts.

If it's the cost of hats that annoys you, consider getting an all class, like a pillar or modest, they look good and go on all classes. Deus specs and a merc's scarf/flair also make nice, cheap all class miscs.

I find it irritating how people are expecting more when buying an uncraftable. Just because its not possible to get it anymore doesn't mean the price will rise. There are probably millions of uncraftables in existence and its not like people are just deleting them because they feel like it. Additionally, remember that economy deals with supply and demand. Who the heck is going to WANT an uncraftable, let alone paying more for one?

tl;dr
The price will not increase, as with vintages, which apparently were supposed to.

well looks it true that dirty hats aren't going to skyrocket by next month and the first question is will the store keep the items clean if soo the dirty hats will take time to risemaybe a year or2 everyone is expecting them to rise right now but they dont understand that you need to wait for lots of new players to join and for them to get premium and look at the shop and be like hmm no dirty hats i want one then go on to buy one you know what i mean?
Well I was around before they were made dirty. Things in the store were clean and a huge sale hit the store & everyone was buying craft hats up like crazy. The other side was beating their drums about how the new craftable items would ruin the tf2 economy. Valve took a stand and made everything uncraftable from the store. Huge amounts of crap hit the fan when people had their craftable items turn uncraftable.

This in fact never really hurt the economy nor does it. The fact is when the sale hit everything was dropping in price while they were still craftable. Craft hats were hitting record lows and if had stayed that way..how could that have been bad for your average joe?

To encourage more people to buy form the store keeps the economy going.

I believe that valve should've retroactively made all uncraft hats clean since this will actually promote buying from the store as there will no longer be any cheaper/dirtier alternatives. Personally i'm not complaining cause i'm still starting my collection of dirty hats.
