Trading cards not tradable but meant to be?

Closed

So I have been crafting badges to get the mystery card which are meant to be dropped "tradable" but in my inventory it says that they are not tradable.

That's because you used non-tradable cards to craft these badges.

Not really, it happens every time you use non-tradeable cards to craft a badge. :]

Its pretty simple. Did you purchase any cards recently from the Steam market to craft those badges?

See comment above. Plus.. It's because it has a market restriction. It happens when you buy, say CS:GO items for example. You can't sell or trade them for a week or so. It's one of Steam's newer policies to prevent scamming and such.

Yeah I get that but the cards were tradable a couple of days ago, then suddenly, like yesterday I noticed that it had changed.

Maybe something didn't change, or it's Steam's fault or something. I dunno, I don't craft badges anymore.

You sure? The dates only appeared for my other cards like a day ago, I even made a trade thread as well due to the fact that they were tradable. Sorry.

Well, I looked at your inventory and every single Mysterious card you have is 'not tradable' so you're probably just mistaken -- it happens. It always says "Tradable" underneath the reward jsyk even when it's not, because it's inherently a 'tradable item' regardless of current restriction.
