The Youpin898 price API from cs2.sh provides real-time and historical CS2 item prices, buy orders, and trade volume from Youpin (youpin898.com), the largest CS2 marketplace by sale volume. Youpin is a peer-to-peer platform based in China and is typically used alongside BUFF to establish the "fair value" of an item.
cs2.sh collects Youpin prices every few minutes: listing prices, buy orders, and volume for all items. Prices are normalized from CNY to USD. Doppler phases, Gamma Doppler, and Case Hardened tiers are priced individually, with variant prices refreshing every ~10–15 minutes.
