How to Get Current C5Game Prices
Updated
API reference: GET /v1/prices/latest · POST /v1/prices/history
GET /v1/prices/latestreturns current C5Game asks, bids, active listing counts, and source timestamps for every tracked CS2 item, normalized to USD.
C5Game asks and bids come from independent collection passes. A bid above the ask indicates that the pair should not be combined, even when each side may be useful on its own.
Current C5Game coverage
The c5game source object contains:
| Field | Meaning |
|---|---|
ask |
Lowest active C5Game listing |
bid |
Highest collected C5Game buy order |
ask_volume |
Number of active listings |
updated_at |
C5Game's source update time |
collected_at |
When cs2.sh fetched the data |
C5Game has no bid_volume. Current prices refresh every ~5-10 minutes,
depending on the source.
Supported Doppler, Gamma Doppler, and Case Hardened markets appear under
variants. Variant source objects are sparse, so C5Game appears only for a
variant it covers.
Read and validate a C5Game quote
Fetch the full latest snapshot, select the exact market_hash_name, and read
its c5game object. For a phase or tier, select the corresponding variant by
its stable version before reading C5Game.
Use a positive ask as the current listing floor. Use the bid in a spread or
sell-side comparison only when it is positive and no higher than the ask.
Keep collected_at with the result so stale observations can be excluded.
For historical validation, POST /v1/prices/history returns C5Game ask and bid
OHLC from December 24, 2025. The
C5Game history guide also covers
the long-term archive from 2023.

C5Game-specific limits
- A non-crossed ask and bid pair is still not guaranteed to represent one simultaneous orderbook observation.
- Keep a valid ask when the bid is crossed, but mark the bid unusable. Swapping fields or clipping the bid would create a false spread.
ask_volumeis the full active listing count for the item or variant. It is not quantity at the cheapest ask and does not count sales.- Current endpoints are available on all plans. History requires Scale or Enterprise; a free 2-day developer key covers evaluation of current prices.
