Why cheap skins matter for trade ups

A trade up contract turns ten skins of one rarity into one skin of the next rarity. The cheapest ten inputs set the cost of the contract, so the skins on this page are the raw material: ten Mil-Spec skins under $5 can produce a Restricted worth several times more. Put them into the trade up calculator to see the exact odds and expected value, or let the profitable trade ups finder pick the contracts that pay off at today's prices.
