Not trusted?!?!

Closed

I just traded with someone for MK9 Komplete Edition, how ever when I select the gist it says "Not Tradable" and below that "Gifts become tradable after a Steam account has been in good standing for at least 30 days. This gift will become tradable on 6 Jul. See the Steam Trading FAQ for more information."

I read the FAQ and it gave no explanation why my trusted standing suddenly broke.

Anyone else had this problem?

Password change might do it. It also happens when you are logged in from a new computer (and trying to trade from there) or just deleted your cookies :) maybe you used a new payment method?

for some things its 15 days, others is 30.

Well... I had a bug earlier today which prevented me to trade with someone. The solution was to delete a file that begins "ssfn" so Steam Guard would be reset again (meaning you have to fill the security code in again).

Could that be the cause?

EDIT: I'm not locked from the market apparently...

No, I do this all the time (actually not the past week but you catch my drift) and although it happened to me as a bug the gifts never actually became untradable, only marked as such.
-edit- your gift is fine, check the tags at the bottom. (known bug)

You mean "Tags: Tradable, Not Marketable"?

Weird... Actually made me little scared tough, but if everything is fine then I think everything is fine then.

Thanks

I know what you mean, the first 10+ times it happened I kinda expected a ban incoming but it's just some lame bug that fixes itself after a few days max, you shouldn't have any problems trading it.
It only happened to me while I was in the steam beta, so that might possibly be what's causing it, ever since I exited the beta I haven't seen any of the bugs I used to see on a daily base (most related to trading like constantly being locked out of browser)

I had that happen on a trade for me too. Problem was I had went first with a Steam key (non-bundle game) then I was unable to trade for my item. Had to get a friend to accept the trade on my behalf. Embarrassing and made me look bad. Turns out it was because my browser updated to a new version and was no longer recognised by Steam Guard.

Thanks for that info, although it doesn't help the OP it does explain why i was locked out of steam in chrome last week.

Maybe it might be caused by adding a new payment method or something. Try contacting Steam support (which will get back to you before the 30 days' end, hopefully) and ask if it's a fixable glitch I guess.
Edit: Logging in from a "new" device only prevents trading from that device for 7 days and doesn't make gifts untradable or trade ban you on "old" devices.
