[Invalid] A problem with the search feature

when i set up a trade or just go into the search tab it will display my backpack just fine, but when I go to the other side to actually search and pick what I want to trade for my items it never actually comes up with items. I will search for refined metal for example and it will infinity search. I left it on one time for 4 hours and it still did not display what i searched. I've tryed it on different browsers, changing my settings and logging in and out but nothing works. It used to work back when I used it last, but now it wont seem to work. Any help would be lovely.

What are you trying to search and where?

Sorry if i dint make what i said very clear. On the TF2 Outpost I try and make a trade or just search for trades going on that have items that I want dont work. I will put something in the search bar and search for it but I get this Infinite buffer and will never come up with what I searched.

Again, what are you trying to search?

The same happened to me. I was making a search on "Bleed" and it showed me this.

I then made a search for "Skyrim" and the same happened. Someone even showed me that there was some Skyrim up for trade....

I then searched for "Mann Co. Supply Crate Key" and the same happened. I have no idea why.

Skyrim works fine: http://www.tf2outpost.com/search/238305748
Keys too: http://www.tf2outpost.com/search/238305835

It doesn't work with Bleed probably because there is none for sale at the moment.

So what't you're saying is if I type Skyrim in search results should appear...

... but then how come I get the "Couldn't find any matches" message?

If you try to find Skyrim under Team Fortress 2 you won't get any results, of course.

I searched under steam inventory too.. Still no results.

Aramax 26 Jan, 2015 @ 8:12am

I even made the search with the "Match all items, not just one" option seletced and still no results... it always gives no results no matter what...

I even found a tutorial on how I should inteligently use TF2 outpost but when I get to 2:03 mark when I type in scrap like the guy does... nothing show up...
