Fees and net proceeds
Steam lists a 5% transaction fee and a 10% CS2 fee, with minimums and cent rounding. These are not a flat 15% deduction from the buyer total. Use the displayed buyer total and seller proceeds.

How the marketplace works
Wallet value versus cash
Steam proceeds remain in Steam Wallet. Compare cash-market offers separately; the same nominal price is not the same withdrawable amount.
Pros
- Official Valve marketplace
- Steam Wallet settlement
Cons
- Steam Wallet funds cannot be withdrawn
- Eligibility and listing limits apply
