Understanding Sticker Value

Sticker value depends on the sticker itself, the skin it is applied to, its position, scrape level, rarity, age, and market demand.

Sticker percentage (SP) is the portion of a sticker’s value that gets added to the base skin price. For example, 5% SP on a $1000 sticker adds $50 to the skin’s value.

Position Impact by Weapon

For most weapons, the best position is position 1, closest to the player when holding the weapon. For AK-47, the best position is usually above the magazine. For AWP, the scope position is usually the most valuable.

Best positions typically get 2-3x higher SP than worst positions, especially on expensive or highly visible crafts.
