DejaQ Posted February 25, 2015 Share Posted February 25, 2015 I had two up with all the class tokens split between them but they were closed for being relists, but I can't say I agree with that decision. Here's my new one after the other got closed http://www.tf2outpost.com/trade/25192231 How do I create them so that they get traffic but also aren't classed as relists? Thanks.

Pretty sure they won't get deleted if you put specific hats on the right, so for example, do one trade for soldier hats, one trade for scount hats, etc. I find that auto bump is key to getting many offers on quickbuy threads and it plays a much more important role than how your trade is designed.

Rainford Posted February 25, 2015 Share Posted February 25, 2015 Try creating individual trades for each class. 1 slot for the class token, the rest for examples of the unusuals. E.g: Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
cringelord Posted February 25, 2015 Share Posted February 25, 2015 In wishlist put placeholders like "Any item", "Craft hat" etc with unusual quality. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Curly Brace Posted February 25, 2015 Share Posted February 25, 2015 You don't need more than one unusual buying trade. The one you have now is fine. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The Recluse Posted February 25, 2015 Share Posted February 25, 2015 setting up a buy for every hat/multiple quickbuy threads will get deleted. It happened to me a few months ago. However, putting "craft hat" on the right and setting the effect to unusual, doesn't allow the "match" feature to work for people selling a random unusual, so it's basically worthless. In otherwords, outpost sucks way worse than it should for quickbuyers. It's so much less effecient than it should be, which means more clutter and spam. I made a claim that they should set "craft hat" on the right to match with anyone selling a craft hat so sellers can actually see quickbuyers much more easily, and they said they're working on it, that was probably 8 months ago. lol outpost updates.

The Recluse Posted February 25, 2015 Share Posted February 25, 2015 slot tokens don't work for matching, either. In fact, nothing works for matches except the exact item. So if you're selling a burning el jefe and hit match, the only trades you will find are those with an El Jefe listed on the right. That's it. And it's terrible. Also, if you don't want, or can't afford $5/month for outpost premium you don't stand a fucking chance at making money in unusual trading, so that's actually a good thing.

LaughingLollipop Posted February 25, 2015 Share Posted February 25, 2015 this one was highly successful for me http://www.tf2outpost.com/trade/23113510#latest slot tokens don't work for matching, either.

I do not have or pay for any trading related premium service. (bt.tf, outpost, bazaar, trade.tf or whatever the kids are buying nowadays) I have never paid for any trading related site or service. I think I'm doin' alright. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
scout608 Posted February 25, 2015 Share Posted February 25, 2015 i guess you should check prices to make sure you pay the most becuase theres already SO MANY quickbuy trades out there, you have to set yourself apart (this is from a qseller standpoint, not a buyer) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
