The Steam Community Market is Valve's official marketplace, available within Steam for every player. It has the highest fees (15%) of any marketplace and does not allow withdrawals – so in effect its prices are typically ~20–30% above third-party platforms. There's no official market API, prices are localized by region, and its undocumented endpoints have low rate limits. cs2.sh collects current prices, buy orders, and full orderbook depth for every item every few minutes (/v1/prices/latest), in USD. From every snapshot it builds continuously updating OHLC price history at 5m/30m/1h/1d across all items (/v1/prices/history). /v1/market/steam/latest and /v1/market/steam/history add full-depth bid and ask orderbooks, and /v1/archive/steam covers native median sale price and volume daily since 2013. Steam doesn't distinguish Doppler phases or Case Hardened patterns, so per-variant pricing isn't available; use BUFF, Youpin, or CSFloat.

common questions

How often does cs2.sh update Steam Community Market prices?

cs2.sh collects Steam listing prices, buy orders, full orderbook depth, and native Steam market-history buckets for regular items every few minutes.

How far back does Steam price history go?

Dedicated Steam endpoints expose more than a decade of Steam's native sale history – median sale price and purchase volume daily since April 26th, 2013, and hourly since May 9th, 2026. Full-depth orderbook history is recorded since June 9th, 2026, and OHLC candles at 5m/30m/1h/1d intervals since December 24th, 2025.

Does the Steam API cover Doppler and Case Hardened variants?

No. Steam's market listings don't distinguish Doppler phases or Case Hardened patterns, so cs2.sh does not provide per-variant Steam pricing. For Doppler, Gamma Doppler, and Case Hardened variant pricing, use BUFF, Youpin, or CSFloat.
