As I now own the hat I'm obviously going to say no, but even before I'd still disagree. Many people have traded lots to obtain it, it would be very depressing for every owner of the hat if their hard work was all for naught and the hat came back on sale. For those bringing greed into this, you need to take a step back. The hat is one of those things people work up to get to, it's sort of an achievement. And god knows how hard trading can be on this game. There is nothing wrong with expanding your inventory, taking pride in the items you obtain, etc. Just because some people might not care about items as much as others, there are people who like the idea of collecting, it gives you something to do; and setting goals for yourself in terms of items is very common among us all. It is never going to be impossible to get your hands on the hat, even though newer items aren't as favored as old, rare items that will not always be true. Inferno is due to come out in the competition quite soon, and it's a new item thats going to rise above in value compared to the other items. There ARE ways to make newer items more valuable, therefore new players will always have a shot if they take it for themselves.
