What happened to OPSkins

OPSkins was a skin marketplace built on Steam bots. In June 2018 Valve said its ExpressTrade service used Valve's intellectual property and violated the Steam Subscriber Agreement. Valve shut down OPSkins' Steam bots on 21 June 2018.

OPSkins kept running after that. By January 2020 it sold VGO and WAX items instead of Steam skins.

On 24 January 2020 OPSkins' former co-founder wrote that the owners had told staff that day the site was shutting down for good. By 31 January opskins.com redirected to the WAX marketplace. WAX is a blockchain for NFTs and virtual items co-founded by OPSkins' CEO.

There is no way to sell skins on OPSkins today.

What to look for in an OPSkins replacement

If you used OPSkins to sell skins, these are the things to check before you pick a new site.

  • A buyer that pays right away

    On a marketplace you list your items and wait. SkinCashier buys them itself: an offer for every item, no listing and no waiting for a buyer.

  • Money you can withdraw

    Check that the balance can be cashed out. SkinCashier pays to PayPal, Bitcoin, Ethereum and Litecoin.

  • A company you can check

    SkinCashier is run by Global Ecommerce Soultions sp. z o.o. in Warsaw. Look it up in the KRS register before you sell.

How fast you get paid

  1. Sign in with Steam

    Through Steam's own login page. Add your trade URL once and you're set.

  2. See your price

    Every item gets an offer straight away. No listing, no waiting for a buyer.

  3. Accept the trade

    Our bot sends the trade offer. You confirm it in the Steam app.

  4. Withdraw

    Pick PayPal or crypto. Payouts are sent automatically, not from a manual queue.

CS2 items: Steam lets the sender reverse a CS2 trade for 7 days (trade protection), on every site. We release the money as soon as that period ends. Rust, Dota 2 and TF2 items are paid right after the trade.
