Any safe way to sell stuff without the steam market
All I hear is that people getting scammed no matter how they trade for example expensive skins.
Even a middlesman sounds risky.

Any suggestions?

Nope, everything outside the Steam Market is basically the wild west, do it at your own risk.

Selling and trading outside of the system Steam has in place is always going to come with varying degrees of risk associated with it, as it's not meant to be done.

Because of a temporary trading lock

Anbd that lock is what makes it safer than just about anywhere else.
Not recommended to trade outside of the Steam trade window or Steam market, if you do then you have a higher risk of getting scammed, on top of that there are more and more sites that are just phishing sites so instead of getting scammed you are more likely to lose the entire account.

If you do go outside Steam just remember to not make a forum post about getting scammed later (since you won't bother to follow the trading rules and guidelines) if you do since there won't be anything done about it and the items will be gone.

PUBG items can't be traded anywhere.

Market purchases have a 7 day restriction on them.

CS:GO 7 day trade restriction was added for a few reasons.

All these things can't be bypassed by using 3rd party sites.

That is why you report them, not call them out.

Naming and shaming is not allowed, please report such scammers by their profile.

You got scammed because you were trading codes for promises outside of Steam.

Now you see why this is another reason why PUBG Corp disabled trading for their game items?

Why did you close my thread? Its the only way to make people aware of this scammers. Steam will not do anything. They will get away with this and you closing my thread :(

Is it allowed to re-open my thread? With not naming them?
