Keep profile private but show inventory.
Hey, I don't want to show my time played etc. but still want to show my inventory, is that possible?

Nope
It is not possible due to the steam hierarchy.
On top of everything there is your profile. Within your profile there are your games and your inventory and so on.
To keep the explaination simple: You can let people inside your house and keep specific rooms private, but you cant show people specific rooms if you dont let them inside your house ;)

For this metaphor your profile is your "house" and the gameslist or your inventory are the "rooms"

Long explaination is:
Your gameslist, friendslist and so on inherit the privacy settings of your profile in general, means if your profile is public, your friendlist is public or your games list is public.
But steam gives you the possibility to keep your inventory private even for people you let inside your house (friends in steam), behind the scenes you tell the steam network to make the privacy settings independent of your profile settings

Ye ty, I know what a hierarchy is.
Shame Steam doesn't have more fine tuned privacy settings.
I don't care if someone sees my items but I care if someone sees how long I played and when I last played.

People that feel the need to hide their profile for whatever reason no ones gonna trade with anyway because only people who i see hiding their profile is certain type of scammers, cheaters and people who hate everyone and everything and dont want anyone adding them. and yes only reason people even need/want to see someones inventory is to trade, else its useless.
