iBUYPOWER Sticker
Katowice 2014 Value & Guide

The iBUYPOWER Holo Katowice 2014 is the single most valuable sticker in CS2 history, currently valued at approximately $85,000. Understanding what makes this sticker so valuable — and how it affects skin prices — is essential knowledge for any serious CS2 trader.

The History Behind the Price

iBUYPOWER was an American CS:GO team that competed at the first Major in Katowice 2014. In 2015, the team was permanently banned from Valve events after a match-fixing scandal involving deliberate losses. This ban meant no new iBUYPOWER items could ever enter the game, creating absolute scarcity for their Katowice 2014 stickers. Combined with growing collector demand, this fixed supply drives one of the most extreme price points in the entire CS2 economy.

SP% by Slot — How Position Affects Added Value

The sticker's value is calculated through SP% (Sticker Percentage), which varies by position on the weapon. In slot 1 (the best position), the sticker adds 15% of its market value to the skin's real value — approximately $12,750. Even in slot 4 (least visible), it adds 7% or ~$5,950. This means an iBUYPOWER Holo in any slot position adds a significant premium to any skin it is applied to.

Scrape Condition: The Value Destroyer

Scrape condition is critical. An unworn iBUYPOWER Holo retains full value. Even light scraping (0.01–0.20 wear) reduces the sticker to 60% value — a loss of over $34,000 in contributed skin value. Fully scraped stickers (0.80+) retain only 2% — just ~$1,700 of the original $85,000. Use our inspect tool to check the exact wear value of every sticker before any trade or purchase.
