We will use one of the new 2021 StockHolm Major discounted items.
As an example, we will take Finalists Autographs Capsule.

We buy the container in the game store, not on the Community Market!


After the 14 days Trade Ban on the item, you can sell it at a loss of $0.03.

You can get 25 Steam Points for one capsule
That means you paid $0.03 for 25 Steam Points, but you can spend less if you waited for the item to become more expensive.

As I said you can sell these items at no loss. You can use this method whenever there are discounts for Capsules or the Major Stickers.

These are all the items in the Major reduced, and in which you should invest:

These are the items that are on sale:

• Autograph Capsules

Champion Autographs
These are one of the worst one to purchase. This will comepletely flood the market with thousands of each sticker, even the gold ones.

Finalists Autographs
If you want to invest in autographed capsules there's no doubt that the finalist capsule would be a much better option.

• Team Stickers

Legends Team Stickers
With the legends you have some options. Some of the best because it definitely wins the popularity contest:

• Team Liquid
  
• Natus Vincere
  
• G2 Esports
  
• Ninjas in Pyjamas
  
• FURIA Esports

Challengers Team Stickers
This capsule has some pretty cool stickers but you can't tell that there's enough demand in this capsule to make it better option than the others.

Contenders Team Stickers
This one has some nice and clean Holos, like: Entropiq and Copenhagen Flames. I would prefer buying the Legends Team Stickers but Contenders is something to consider.

• Team Patches

There are some sad news about the Patches.
With this sale hitting hard at 74% I think the team badge gamble is not something you should invest in. Hopefully demand increases for these patches but even if that's true at the sale price we have there's going to be thousands of these patches. There is not any real potential but that depends on the CS:GO community and how much they value patches going forward.

The items you need to invest in so that you are not certainly at a loss are: Legends Team Stickers, Contenders Team Stickers and Finalists Autographs.
