TF2 Items Best Sellers in 2024 (By Purchases on DMarket)
Another year of active matchmaking and items trading have been added to the longevity of Team Fortress 2. Moreover, the game bravely faced the releases of some new hero-based shooters and took this hit like a boss. The solid position of TF2 as a great classic and still a thriving title won’t be shaken any time soon.
This is positively reassuring for the community of players and item traders. If you want to invest money in TF2 cosmetics, you definitely want to play matches to show off with new items, and to make good revenue.
Team Fortress 2 is one of the primary games on DMarket. Each year, we reveal key stats for it. Here are the best-selling Team Fortress 2 items in 2024.
Tour of Duty Ticket
- Category: Tool
- Used by: All Classes
- Starting Price: $0.75
This item is an actual ticket for TF2 players to access a specific game mode: Mann Up. After activation, a player is allowed to complete one of the available missions. The very activity is fun enough to use the Tour of Duty Ticket, and there is a reward at the end: a variety of possible drops.
A great thing about this item is that the game doesn’t take the ticket away if a player is unsuccessful with the mission. This is quite a good motivation for people to buy it and thus obtain some pretty good cosmetics (which may cost much more).
This practical role makes the Tour of Duty Ticket the best-selling TF2 item on DMarket in 2024.

Refined Metal
- Category: Crafting ingredient
- Used by: All classes
- Starting Price: $0.04
In Team Fortress 2, players can use internal crafting to get themselves various items, such as weapons and cosmetics. Refined Metal is used as a possible component, and it’s present in different blueprints.
As an in-game resource, TF2 Refined Metal can also be obtained via crafting. It is possible to smelt weapons to get lower-class Metal and then smelt these types of Metal to create the Refined one.
Refined Metal is used to craft a limited number of items. Smelting three pieces of Refined Metal creates one Reclaimed Metal—which is a component in a lot of blueprints for all TF2 classes.
Such a crafting game fascinates players, so Refined Metal is among the TF2 best sellers in 2024. The item is cheap, and people willingly buy it to have the resource for something new and exciting.
Battle-Worn Robot KB-808
- Category: Crafting ingredient
- Used by: All classes
- Starting Price: $0.04
This item is another crafting ingredient, and TF2 players purchased it actively in 2024. Battle-Worn Robot KB-808 is used to create Killstreak Kits: Specialized and Professional. Players should complete the crafting via a Killstreak Kit Fabricator.
The end result applies visual changes to the character depending on the current kill streak. A Specialized Kit adds color sheens if a player reaches specific numbers of kills without deaths. With a Professional Kit, the character’s eyes get an extra particle effect.

Backpack Expander
- Category: Tool
- Used by: All Classes
- Starting Price: $0.80
It’s no surprise to see the Backpack Expander making it to the TF2 best sellers again. It’s helpful for optimizing items in a player’s backpack: it adds 100 extra slots. The Backpack Expander was the top item in the Team Fortress 2 stats on DMarket from 2023.
Sure, there will be no real advantages over opponents. But many people in the Team Fortress 2 community have been playing the game for a pretty long time and have accumulated quite a few TF2 items. Additional slots are never excessive for them, hence the popularity of the Backpack Expander.

The Festivizer
- Category: Tool
- Used by: All Classes
- Starting Price: $0.69
The festive spirit is not limited to a specific time of the year or to some weapon skins. Thanks to this tool, Team Fortress 2 players can add it to their entire Decorated arsenal.
The Festivizer applies a string of Christmas lights to a selection of TF2 weapons or to Decorated variants. It may be weird to see bright colors around the deadly guns—but doesn’t this juxtaposition reflect the whole idea of cosmetics in shooting games?
The TF2 community appreciates the decorative opportunities with The Festivizer, so the item is one of the best sellers on DMarket in 2024. For rather practical customization, delve into the topic of TF2 launch options. Our dedicated guide explains all the details.
Secret Saxton
- Category: Action item
- Used by: All classes
- Starting Price: $0.55
Having this item featured in our list clearly proves how friendly the Team Fortress 2 community is. It turns out that the players love taking the role of Secret Santa to deliver a gift to a random person on the server. Secret Saxton is exactly such a present.
The recipient receives a random item in their backpack. Everyone else gets notified of this action. Seeing the gifting happening, many people decided to head to DMarket and buy TF2 Secret Saxton to do the same. Isn’t this sweet?
The Conscientious Objector
- Category: Melee
- Used by: All Classes except Engineer and Spy
- Starting Price: $0.16
On the one hand, The Conscientious Objector is just a melee weapon to hit opponents in Team Fortress 2. The item doesn’t add any practical improvement. On the other hand, players use this wooden sign with nails and blood stains to look like a dangerous, mad person on the server. Quite a few people enjoy this role.
The Conscientious Objector has an extra customization layer. With the Decal Tool, TF2 players can add their own image to the sign.
The victims of such a weapon will be marked with a hilarious kill icon—so no one misses the use of The Conscientious Objector.

Taunt: The Schadenfreude
- Category: Taunt
- Used by: All classes
- Starting Price: $3.51
The name of this taunt means “malicious joy” in German. And it nicely reflects what’s happening after the activation of The Schadenfreude. The character starts laughing—at someone, obviously.
The potential usage is pretty clear. For example, laughing at a fallen opponent will break their spirit even more.
These tricks may be quite effective in Team Fortress 2, as many people bought Taunt: The Schadenfreude on DMarket in 2024. At least, the item supports the fun spirit in the game.

The Frying Pan
- Category: Melee
- Used by: All Classes
- Starting Price: $0.08
This item has become legendary among Team Fortress 2 players. Why attack your opponents with the default melee weapon if you can do this with… The Frying Pan?
Not only is the item hilarious and boosts the fun atmosphere in TF2 matches (at least for teammates), but The Frying Pan is also pretty cheap. Many players can go for this purchase with no hesitation. It feels like one of the recipes for success in the items trading business.
The Frying Pan regularly makes the yearly lists of best sellers on DMarket, and 2024 is no exception.
The AWPer Hand
- Category: Primary
- Used by: Sniper
- Starting Price: $0.26
Shooting once and scoring a kill feels pretty satisfying. In Counter-Strike, it’s possible with the sniper rifle AWP. With this item, the CS2 weapon comes to Team Fortress 2 as well.
The AWPer Hand is a primary weapon for the Sniper class. If a player has the blueprint, they can craft the rifle with Class and Slot Tokens plus Scrap Metal. Many people prefer buying the ready thing on a TF2 marketplace. To be effective in shooting, you need to see everything happening around you. Check out our guide on how to change FOV in Team Fortress 2. This trick may be especially helpful for Snipers.
Taunt: Kazotsky Kick
- Category: Taunt
- Used by: All Classes
- Starting Price: $5.87
Team Fortress 2 successfully combines serious shooting action and a generally hilarious atmosphere. The in-game fun is nicely supported by taunts—that’s why we have a few of these items among the TF2 2024 best sellers on DMarket.
If a player activates the Taunt: Kazotsky Kick, their characters start dancing Ukrainian Hopak, a traditional folk dance. The moves are difficult to perform in real life, but in TF2, Hopak is a quick and easy taunt that shows the player’s light-hearted spirit and confidence.

Taunt: Conga
- Category: Taunt
- Used by: All Classes
- Starting Price: $4.11
This TF2 taunt is pretty special, as it’s not meant to be toxic but rather to share the party spirit: with teammates and even opponents.
Upon activation, the character starts doing the conga line dance moves and slowly advances forward. When other players on the servers see this, they can join by pressing the taunt key when a dancing character is nearby. The dance continues even if the original initiator stops their taunt. Let the entire server dance with joy!
All Team Fortress 2 classes can do the Conga Taunt. For Scouts, the moves are slightly different: claps over the head are added.
Max’s Severed Head
- Category: Cosmetic
- Used by: All Classes
- Starting Price: $62.00
It’s the most expensive TF2 item in our list of best sellers—and by a pretty substantial margin. Max’s Severed Head is a cosmetic hat for all character classes in Team Fortress 2. It copies the appearance of Max, the rabbit investigator from the media franchise Sam & Max.
The hat can have a few color variants after being combined with the tool item Paint Can.
The popularity of Max’s Severed Head is most likely based on the generally awesome look of this hat during TF2 matches. Players just want to have it! Also, there is the layer of limited availability, as this item was released back in 2010 during a special promo event around the graphic adventure game Sam & Max: The Devil’s Playhouse. The rarity boosts the community’s interest and the market price.

The Bruiser’s Bandanna
- Category: Cosmetic
- Used by: All Classes
- Starting Price: $0.35
With this item, TF2 characters hide their faces behind a bandanna—a kerchief placed over the mouth and nose. It can be applied for all classes, and it changes only the appearance, without affecting the gameplay.
The Bruiser’s Bandanna was among the Team Fortress 2 best sellers on DMarket in 2024. The item is popular thanks to its generally nice style and the pretty cheap price.
There are three possible versions of The Bruiser’s Bandanna: Original (with white TF2 logos), Skulls (with skulls instead of the logos), and Clean (a plain kerchief). The item’s color changes with the Paint Can tool.

Dead of Night
- Category: Cosmetic
- Used by: All Classes
- Starting Price: $1.70
When it’s cold around, even TF2 characters should feel warm and comfortable. The Dead of Night overcoats will do the trick!
The cosmetic skin changes clothes for all classes, and the exact overcoats have some unique features for specific characters. To make further changes, players can use one of four styles and apply colors with the Paint Can tool.
The Dead of Night concludes the list of the most popular Team Fortress 2 items on DMarket 2024. We clearly can see how many people play TF2 and how fond they are of the game’s fun customization.
