How come two Factory New skins with similar floats can still have a huge price gap? I thought float was the main thing.

I once got offered a Karambit that looked amazing but was priced much lower than others with the same float. I didn’t understand what I was missing. While comparing listings, I ended up reading a section on https://dmarket.com/cs2-wiki/ that explained pattern IDs and how they impact visual appeal and value. It turns out some patterns are considered more desirable even if the wear is the same. That helped me avoid overpaying for looks alone. Now I always double-check patterns, especially for knives and rare skins.
