I have gathered a huge amount of low-tier Rust skins over the last few months and my inventory is a complete mess. I was wondering if there is an official way to combine them into something better or if I should just sell them all on the market. Do you guys usually keep your cheap skins or do you try to swap them for one high-value item? Is there a specific strategy to get the most value when upgrading your inventory?

I used to just dump my skins for cheap on the market, but trading up is way more efficient if you know what you are doing.
