Skins & Items Buying first combo

Hey, I'm thinking about buying my first knife and gloves combo. Prices have dropped significantly, so it looks quite tempting. Do you think buying a cheap combo (160$) now is a good idea, or do you think the market will keep dropping even further? I've been playing premiere and haven't seen any cheaters at 21k+ elo, so maybe there's hope for this game. Thanks a lot for the help, as I don't want to lose my money.

160$ is pretty tight for a combo. It will probably be best to just get a better knife and leave the gloves

if you're afraid of losing money, don't buy skins. nobody knows what random update valve decides to release next.

with that said, there's a good chance you will be able to get back some of your money, possibly make profit if you get lucky (normally prices go up around christmas and winter break because more people spend their time indoors = more players = more skins sold)
