What are we supposed to do? That's a built in feature. We don't have the ability to turn that off.

IP Rate Limiter

Change your IP address. Your probably using a shared IP address assignment, so too many people with that IP address are sending too many page requests to steam.

It will not go away, this is in place to stop bots and browser add on's from bombing steam with too many page requests.

Wait, there is a legitimate way to avoid this?

Get a dynamic static private IP address.... or use a VPN, just make sure you turn your vpn off when purchasing anything on steam store.

You hit an API quota limit. This quota limit is IPv4 based. If restarting your router doesn't help, you'll have to wait it out.

IPv4 addresses are not unique anymore. As there are more humans (8 billion) than IPv4 addresses (4.2 billion), ISPs have chosen to route users together on an identical IPv4 address. This technique is known as CGNAT.

For Valve's community market API this bundled together group of users using CGNAT or Dual Stack Lite looks like a single user.

If you waited several days to weeks, your only recourse is getting a public IPv4 address. It doesn't matter whether this one is static or dynamic. Ask your ISP on how to obtain one.

If you already have a public also known as dedicated IPv4 address, you should stop spamming inventory actions.
