How to Refund Purchases in CS2

Pawn shop within CS2, who would have thought?

In one of the better additions to the game, CS2 now allows players to refund purchases during buy time each round.

Here’s everything you need to know about how to refund item purchases in CS2 and the rules for this process.

Why Can’t I Refund an Item I Bought in CS2?

When it comes to refunding stuff in CS2, there are some rules which I will gladly explain to you below:

  • You need to be the original purchaser of the item, and you must not drop it.
  • You cannot sell stuff you kept from the previous round.
  • Refund of the item/weapon needs to be done during the buy time period, which is visible at the top of the shop at all times and within the borders of the buy area.
  • If the weapon was shot from, it’s no longer refundable. You break it, you buy it.
