Won't be able to sell items after buying till 7 days? New CS : GO Market Rule?

[Mr. Alien]

So I get a steam message which says

Well, so basically my wallets going to suffer badly, I mean say if I buy a skin for a dollar and then suddenly price starts dropping, I won't be able to sell it even for a lower price to prevent more losses.

So I don't get why this rule now, surely its to maintain the value of items but 7 days is like more then normal. in a day or 2, M4A4 Griffin reaches 4 to 30$ and then back to 8$ so people who bought for 30$ will suffer heavy damages.

Any comments over this?

This is so stupid, why would they do it

[cJ ツ...]

Yeah i saw the same message. Pretty strong restriction..
You also wont be able to buy some Skins to bet them, you would have to do it a week before..

[✅PreX' Stylez]

facts, what if i had to buy an item to trade it for something better?

[BigCousin]

New trading law for cs go?

If you havent read this here it is:

I personally think this is stuipd. I do a lot of trading in cs go and i some time need to buy stuff for trading in steam market for filling the gap price. This completely stop us from doing it.

Do they think we are ♥♥♥♥♥♥♥♥?Are we NOOBS?..Who scams people with cases?? Aaa..if they have problems with people who are making profit with this is another ♥♥♥♥..So stop considering we are bots..Thanks to us you have profit..
And about knifes or other expensive weapons..How do we scam people using steam market?I think people are scammed using steam trade system VALVE noobs and all those bot account and viruses which are stealing our items.
Valve you are doing a great job..Continue doing stupid updates : IM BEGGING YOU INCREASE KEY PRICE TO 2.10€.. and make us pay for competitive matches..Why not?

Maybe you should stop ♥♥♥♥♥♥♥♥, and realise this update is to protect your steam wallet funds. For example: I have 50 euros on my account and suddenly i get hacked. 50 Euros are gone due to the fact there's no safety measure, and the hacker traded the items/game to his own account.
With this the hackers can't trade it to theirselves, buying more time in case if you get hacked, and thusly more chance that you don't lose your cash when you get hacked.

Its the stupidest idea ive seen in a while from valve, i mean i could understand if they made it like for 1 day but 7? Just stupid

[Mr. Alien]

I used to buy skins and sell them if prices increased or sell them if I feel prices would drop too much compared to my purchase rate, also, rate charts will be useless, no one's going to risk buying a skin that he can sell after 7 days...

I can just guess the current market stats, buy and sell, no question of guessing what would happen after 7 days...
