DropMarket Value Database

How We Value Murder Mystery 2 Items

Every MM2 value on DropMarket is a price in real US dollars, read from live listings by reputable sellers and refreshed every day. This page explains exactly how — and where the limits are — so you can trust the number and cite it.

Real Money, Not Value Points

Most MM2 value lists publish one number per item in community “value” points, set by hand. Points are useful for comparing two items, but they cannot tell you what an item is worth — and they go stale between updates. We do not use them, or copy them. Every value here is a price in US dollars, measured from what reputable sellers are asking right now.

Where The Prices Come From

Every day we read the live Murder Mystery 2 listings on a third-party marketplace — each asking price and each seller's review count. We currently price 918 items from 9,161 reputable listings. Item names, rarities, origins and images come from the community wiki (images under CC BY-SA, credited on each page); the wiki's trading values are not used.

Reputable Sellers Only

A listing only counts if the seller has a real track record — a cheap price from a brand-new account is usually bait, not a deal. The bar rises with the money at stake:
  • • 200+ reviews for items under $100
  • • 500+ reviews from $100 to $500
  • • 1,000+ reviews above $500, when enough such sellers list the item

An item needs at least three reputable listings before we publish a value. Below that the list says “No Price Yet” — a gap is more honest than a guess.

Cheapest vs Market Price

From the reputable listings we publish two numbers:
  • • Cheapest — the lowest price a reputable seller is asking that has other listings close above it. A lone low listing far under everything else is skipped: it is usually a mislabelled item or a fake.
  • • Market — the typical price: the middle of the cheapest handful of reputable listings. What you should expect to pay if you are not hunting for the floor.

We also drop placeholder prices (a listing at ten times the next one, kept up while a shop is out of stock) and anything priced below a cent per item.

When A Value Changes

Prices wobble by a few cents every day. A value only moves on the site when it shifts by more than 3% or 5 cents, whichever is larger, compared with the value we last published — not with yesterday. Small drifts still add up: a steady climb publishes as soon as it crosses the line. Every day's price is kept in the item's history, which draws the 7D / 30D / 90D chart on its page.

Updated Daily

A fresh read of the market runs every day. Each item page shows when its value last moved, and the list shows a 7-day change once a week of history has built up — we never backfill history we did not record.

Chromas, Sets And Commons

A Chroma is priced as its own item, never as a multiple of its base weapon — they sell in different markets, and each item page links the two so you can compare. Sets are not priced yet. Every item on the list has a price where the evidence allows, and every item has its own page with how to get it, its forms and its price once sellers list it.

Limitations You Should Know About

These are asking prices on active listings, not completed sales — we do not have sales history for Murder Mystery 2, and we do not pretend otherwise.

We currently read one marketplace for Murder Mystery 2; the second source we use for other games does not carry it yet. One source means less protection against a distorted market, so treat an item with only a handful of listings as a rough guide, not a quote.

Methodology — Frequently Asked Questions

No. Community value lists rate items in points set by hand, and points only compare items with each other. Every number on DropMarket is a price in US dollars measured from live listings — what an item actually sells for.

Only established sellers: 200+ reviews for items under $100, 500+ for items from $100 to $500, and 1,000+ above $500 when enough of them list the item. An item needs at least three such listings before we publish a value.

Cheapest is the lowest price a reputable seller is asking that has other listings close above it — what a buyer can actually pay today. Market is the typical price: the middle of the cheapest handful of reputable listings.

We re-price every item every day. A value only moves on the site when it shifts by more than 3% or 5 cents (whichever is larger) against the last published value, so pages follow real moves rather than daily noise.

Because fewer than three reputable listings back them. We would rather show a gap than a number we cannot stand behind; the item gets a price as soon as the evidence is there.
