OP is full of scammers and price gougers

If you post the trade on TF2OP and SOP, then there really is no question of weather it was an SOP thread or not. Just don't ask the person which place they found you, assume they found you on SOP and ask them to leave rep there.

I've still been seeing these idiots with the trades still on Autobump but they are not trading at the moment. I wish these people were just be banned, I do not do that, and before the per trade autobump I closed my trades and made new ones when I didn't want them Autobumping (like I was away for a couple days or not doing the trade at the time) and these people create negative opinions of all donators to the point that even I look for non-donators when searching trades so I can find people who will be online.

The Once, you are incorrect.

If your trade contains items A, B, C, and D, if someone searches for ANY combination that includes at least one of those, it will come up in the results.

Someone does not have to search A + B + C + D to find your trade, just A or B or C or D

Do you read??? I am talking about the items listed that I would be selling but are not included in the trade so would not show up in searches. I recommend learning English.

I think instead of insulting Watson, you should just elaborate to him, which I will do for you:

If I have 16 weapons to sell and I can only post 8 per posting, I will open 2 seperate trades, each trade will list 8 and then 8 totally different items all with a bounty of 1 scrap each (if the case may be). I would not have the same weapon in both trades as it is redundant and will only create an offence of the rules.

IF however I have 2 strange rocket launchers and one I am selling as a regular one off and the other I am selling in a set only format then it is not a double listing and is not a violation of the rules.

I aslo know what the damn rules are. I was pointing out why having multiple same function trades are acceptable and answering the question of the original poster rather than attempting to criticize people. Apparently I am on the discussion for the wrong reason, I didn't realize the point was to criticize other peoples comments for things that are unrelated.

I would count the first one (scrap-banking) as relisting, one trade is enough for buyers to find you, but I wouldn't do that on the second one, because if he can not re-list the weapons he is selling he can not use the matches system to find buyers, but I might be wrong

I would agree. The reason for making multiple weapon/strange weapon/hat trades is so that people using the match system or the search system can find you. Without more than 8 items per trade people can only find the trade with a search for the 8 items you are selling so I might be selling a strange RL but it is not one of the 8 items on the one strange trade I have so I have to make multiple trades so people can find the weapons they are looking for.

No, TF2 bazaar is much nicer just needs more people. Too many people trying to jew on Outpost. Try to sell an unusual and all you find are people trying to buy quicksells for like half cost.
