So recently a few of my trades were taken down for relisting, and I want to make sure that if I put up new trades they won't be taken down as well.

As I understand that if I just create a bunch of posts advertising that I'm buying quicksells, this would be a clear example of relisting. I talked to a few of the major quicksell buyers on outpost, and came to the following conclusion; If I open a bunch of posts on outpost looking for specific items, and I post prices for those specific items , I am not relisting.

So lets say that I open on 2 trades. In one trade I'm advertising that I'm looking for:

Trade 1:
◘Scorching Bomber
◘Purple energy crone's
◘Sunbeams Beak
◘ Blizzardy team captain
◘ Green energy nunhood
◘ Vivid Tyrolean
◘ 13th hour heer's helm
◘ Anti-Freeze Slick Cut

I specify a price for each of these hats and effects. I explain that I am willing to buy other effects of the same hat (such as the scorching beak), but I will not buy altogether different hats (such as the galvanized Gibus).

Trade 2:
◘ Arcana Viewfinder
◘ Frostbite Brotherhood
◘ Sunbeams Hong Kong Cone
◘ Death at Dusk Law
◘ Scorching Flames Surgeon's Stahlhelm
◘ Vivid Plasma Killer Exclusive
◘ Haunted Ghosts Merc's Mohawk
◘ rning Flames Modest Pile of Hat

I specify a price for each of these hats and effects. I explain that I am willing to buy other effects of the same hat (such as the frostbite law), but I will not buy altogether different hats (such as the galvanized Gibus).

I came to the conclusion that these 2 posts would not be reslists of each other, but I would like to confirm that with a moderator.

This also seems to agree with rule #5:

Originally posted by rule #5:

No relists. Relisting is creating multiple trades for the same purpose or listing the same item in multiple trades excessively. You cannot have multiple trades open with the same goal, and you cannot have an excessive number of trades open for the same item.

In this case, each trade would be looking for those hats, and those hats only. They would not be serving the same purpose.

I also dug up 2 past posts that I believe to support my hypothesis:

However if you list the hats you are buying and what prices you are buying them for, then it is not considered relisting.

Since I already got a few of my trades taken down for relisting, I do not want to risk a ban by angering the staff. So, I put up this post to confirm that what I would do would not be considered relisting.
