I've been trading my hats for hats + metal until I get enough metal to buy a high end hat then just repeating the process. Free hats!

Got a bunch of dueling minigames and paint for free last night basically by being a middleman to trades on some west coast server.

I asked for reclaimed metal and got refined metal plus another alien swarm hat...done.

just traded my milkman and attendant for 2 cheiftan's challenges LOL
I figured since you can now craft the new polycount hats i'd trade for the cheiftans

Sorry to say it Xanthur, but that is not really a great trade.

Medic mask is very rare, most people pay two hats for it. Fez is super easy to get now, all you need is 4 refined metal. Older hats are more valuable because (1) no specific crafting recipe and (2) many are still vintage.

I traded most of my new poly hats for older vintage hats. Only two hats remaining (Pile and Amassment) until I complete my vintage hat collection...

BUT... if you are happy with the Fez, then enjoy it, that's all that matters.

Well, I appreciate everyone's concerned words. And yes, I took the quick way to getting the Fez. (I had no metal though, and my drops would be so rare, I got impatient)
Yeah, I do miss my Medic Mask, and the Ushanka too even though I play Heavy rarely. But Spy's my main class, and I was dying to try out his new style. So far so good.

In retrospect I wish I could have known how valuable my hats were, but oh well. Nothing can be done now but to see if I can get them back by trading :/

So uh... "Looking for a Medic Mask!"

Also to Wats: I really appreciate your offer. I'll be sure to repay you sometime if that day does come

Most amazing trade I have ever seen!!!!

Not sure if anyone will believe this one.

I then proceeded to trade that hat for the following:
2 keys
earbuds
bills hat
v. soldier stash
v. bonk helm
v. trophy belt
tippler tricorn
v. pyro beanie
v unshanka.

Can you believe that?!?!?!?!?!
