How to compare CS2 skins by appearance
Choose a budget, compare finish designs and save the options you like. Prices refer to the selected condition; catalogue images show the design.
Start with your budget
Enter a maximum reference price per skin, choose a weapon and a version: Normal, StatTrak or Souvenir. Each result states the condition and price period. USD references use Steam sales over 24 hours, falling back to 7 days and then 30 days. Current offers can differ. Remove the price limit to see designs without a reference price. After 72 hours, saved prices are labelled historical with their check date.
Compare finish designs
Place two or three finishes side by side and compare their colours, artwork and overall style. For example, compare AK-47 Slate with Ice Coaled. The catalogue images below show their designs. They are not screenshots of the exact items offered for sale.
Choose the condition
The condition selector chooses the item variant you want to keep. Changing it does not change the catalogue image or simulate wear. A price is shown only when a checked quote exists for that exact finish and condition. To assess scratches, pattern placement or stickers, inspect the actual item before buying.
Find a cheaper option
On a card with a checked price, choose “Find a cheaper option”. The selection will show checked variants of the same weapon below that price. If nothing matches, increase your budget or clear the price filter. An unknown price is never treated as zero.
Save and share your selection
Save your comparison under a name, open it in My loadouts or share a link with the selected skins, versions and conditions. Sets stay in this browser. The selection covers weapons, knives and gloves, including Doppler phases and vanilla knives. A phase without a separate price remains unpriced; it never receives the price of a shared Steam listing.
Images and prices
Catalog art shows the design, not an exact item’s wear, pattern or stickers. Steam references use the shortest available sales period: 24 hours, 7 or 30 days. Where Steam has no quote, skins use the lowest recorded USD listing from public marketplaces. The price type and check date appear beside each quote. Patterns, stickers and the owner’s exact item are not valued. After 72 hours, saved prices are labelled historical with their check date. Generic Doppler prices are never applied to individual phases.
