Q:

Could it be that it’s not on the TP due to the same bug as the Zodiac sword (these cannot be sold currently)?

I suspect it’s because people follow others – “it’s not been listed on the TP yet, so it must not be in demand”, or “people probably think it doesn’t look good”. And since it’s a big gamble, people won’t use their precious ticket on a rifle.

Yet somehow, I don’t think that’s the case.
Does anyone know, or has anyone tried?

A:

To whoever listed the fused rifle just now: I love you. The price is a little too ambitious, but at least now I know it’s not bugged.

There’s no fused rifle from the ticket merchant, so either they are super rare, or simply don’t exist. If there is a bug. Looked at the merchant myself and didn’t see any. Only the pistol.

No there is. For a second, you had me doubting there.
I just went to the merchant and took a screenshot. Rifle indicated with a red arrow.

Ah, my apologies. Jumped the gun. Mixed them up with the winter’s day skins.

In this case, I would assume that they are bugged much like the zodiacs and such were for a bit, or… No one’s put it up on the TP yet. Given their expensiveness and rarity, it might be some time before you see some of them.

It is because very few people have them and nobody really wants to be the first to put them up.

Lets say 3 people have them that are actually willing to sell them. Since there is no set market price, the first person to put it up will be basically setting the price. Now, as soon as that person puts it up as a listing for lets say 250g or whatever, the other two people can just undercut that person by 1c or whatever they want. Nobody wants to be the first person to put up their stuff cause of this.

The turnover of fused skins is quite fast, this wouldn’t worry me in the least if I had a ticket.

Just this morning, someone filled my buy order for a fused staff of 156g.
I would consider buying a rifle for 200g straight off the TP without a buy order. Just saying.

(And no, I’m not buying to resell. I’m buying for me me me)
