Oh hey, not bad. Starr and I have been sitting on hats to trade (my extra medic hats for her ten gallon) for months now.

When trading does go live, I have a Hustler's Hallmark I'll trade for a Stainless Pot, Soldier's Stash, Officer's Ushanka, or Glengarry Bonnet (in that order of preference) if anybody's open to that.

I like Bill's Hat too, but I'd put good money down that you won't be able to trade items like those.

man I only have sucky hats.

I have uhhh Sniper's hatless I'll trade for any Pyro, Medic or Demoman hat. I might be convinced to trade the Jarate Headband for any Pyro hat. Or the Stainless Pot, that's awesome too.

Seeing as it will be released with a shitton of stuff, I am guessing it will be coming out sometime next year.

Through random drops, even. And I'm right on the verge of having enough metal to craft yet ANOTHER hat.

Anybody have a Bill's Hat they'd let go easy? Apparently they're tradeable.

Also, the item pricing in their shop is hilariously bullshit. I mean, it has to compete with "get it for free sooner or later", "craft it", AND "just trade for it".

Indeed.

I did spend 50 cents for an Axtinguisher, though.  It also gave me the MannCo hat.

Actually, the "tiering by release date" for hats is probably pretty smart.  They'll make money off of the impatient and unlucky that way, while someone who wants an older hat that has been taunting them for a while can blow two to five bucks instead of seventeen.

ugh since the trophy belt is just the band around the hat and not a full model itself I can't paint it :((

I got one of those locked supply crates, so I bought a key to get my Mann Co Hat and see what would pop out of it.  I got a paint color that isn't available in the store: white!  So now my Spy's fedora is snazzy clean looking.

Can someone who's been playing answer something for me?

I understand that items will still drop normally.  I also understand that there's a new "locked box" item that you need to buy a key with real $$$ to open.

Are these boxes among the items dropped normally in the game?  Do they randomly replace normal items that are dropped, or are they acquired another way?  Can the keys also be dropped, or are they purchase-only?

Keys are purchase only, boxes drop randomly like anything else.

The box contents are here http://wiki.teamfortress.com/wiki/Mann_Co._Supply_Crate#Series_.231

I'm not sure if I should trade mine for a hat or buy a couple keys.

Boxes were simply added to the list of "random stuff that can drop". keys for now are purchase only,. although it won't surprise me if they're either a rare drop (IE, with hats) or added to the drop rot later.
