Major Posted June 23, 2014 Share Posted June 23, 2014 Is he marked on steamrep? If yes, don't trade with him. If no, trade with him. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Kevin the Chicken God Posted June 23, 2014 Share Posted June 23, 2014 He's clean on steamrep then you should be good, as long as the hat you're buying isnt the hat he sharked Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Curly Brace Posted June 23, 2014 Share Posted June 23, 2014 pretty sure trading with any person banned on outpost will get you banned yourself on outpost Outpost says you can't trade with known scammers or scammer alts, but they're very vague on how they interpret this rule, as we all know. You can trade with users that are banned on there, it just depends what you trade with them for and why they were banned. If it were interpreted this way, anyone that trades with Accell would be banned also. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Seminal Inhalation Posted June 23, 2014 Share Posted June 23, 2014 Quadruple check that hats history to see if he sharked it. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
♠Derpeh♤ Posted June 23, 2014 Share Posted June 23, 2014 Outpost says you can't trade with known scammers or scammer alts, but they're very vague on how they interpret this rule, as we all know. You can trade with users that are banned on there, it just depends what you trade with them for and why they were banned. If it were interpreted this way, anyone that trades with Accell would be banned also. Generally speaking: 1) If they are marked on steam rep 2) If they have a lot of pending reports 3) If they are banned off outpost for fencing/hijacking...etc (ie scammer as a reason) if they were banned for spamming trades or swearing it doesnt matter. 4) If it is a blatant hijacker eg. history of hats is weird, hat is like at a very obvious discount, new account..etc. If you bought one from them generally you will get a warning (you might not have checked) but if you bought a lot it gives the red flag that you know what is going on (you have enough pure to buy multiple unusuals "i didnt check" doesnt hold much ground...) They are vague because each report must be evaluated on a case by case basis as steamrep is utterly unreliable and traders always nitpick at the rules to slim their way out of things. Generally if you seem to be a experienced trader they are less forgiving in bans. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Zcrab Posted June 23, 2014 Share Posted June 23, 2014 So It's better not to mess with that Unless that hat is 1 of 1 you could just not bother and get it from someone else Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
