I have a question about how the buy order works on the Steam Market. I will use the following picture for my examples.

Scenario:

Let's say I list my buy order at $11.41, after someone listed the $12.12 price. If a seller puts up the item for $11.41, will I get the item, or will the person who put their buy order higher, and before mine receive the item?

Essentially, if the listing price is equal to or lower than the buy order, will the item go to the person with the highest buy order, or the person who placed the buy order first?

People actually sell their items under the top buy order. I've seen CSGO knives sell for pennies when their top buy order is in the hundreds. Here is an example. This knife was sold for $0.14 just a few weeks ago.

FYI:

This does not function like "basic forex" softwares. I've listed a CS:GO trading card for $0.04 when the highest buy order was $0.05 and I received $0.04 not $0.05.
