Breaking a skin down is permanent. A listing is an asking price, so the cheapest one may sell before you get to it. Buy prices don’t include any deposit or withdrawal fees a site charges. Prices on trade sites (CS.Trade, Tradeit.gg, Swap.gg, Loot.Farm, RapidSkins) are their effective cash cost after deposit bonuses.

Rust skins currently listed for less than the Cloth, Wood or Metal they break down into. Each skin's cheapest listing across Steam and the third-party marketplaces we track is compared with the resource's Steam Market price, refreshed about every five minutes.
