How do I change the price of my market listing?

[LadGaga]

I'm not seeing an option to lower the price of something I have listed up on the marketplace.

When I listed the card I put the price a good ways lower than anything listed. Knowing that after waiting 15 days for it to list there was a good chance of the price lowering.

Unfortunately for me the price dropped even lower than my pending price. So I now need to lower the price.

Obviously it would an absolutely broken system that made me remove the listing to lower the price. And then jhave to wait another 15 days for my newly priced item to appear on the markets.
So I'm obviously missing the 'adjust price' button somewhere. Where is it?

How does that not apply? What's preventing a piece of malware to rewrite your "Sell knife for 300$" action into "Send all items to my master"? Answer: Nothing. How can you distinguish between those two? Answer: You can't. How can the Steam servers distinguish between those two? Answer: They can't. The code is valid!
Sk how exactly dows that not apply to you?

Well you know what I'm going to say next.

How does that not apply after 15 days then?
Does the magical 15 days wait for my listing to appear make sure that there's no malware on my comp?

Surely the email I ALSO had to click to even pend the item let me see what I was wanting to sell and for how much? Why the 15 days?

It gives you 15 days to prevent the trade or market listing and fix your system, if you do get malware.

As Steam, your e-mail and the malware would be on the same system, using e-mail would not be secure since if they got your Steam information, they most likely have your e-mail information too.

But they might have also stolen my phone?

I know what I think. I think the 15 days is intentionally punitive to make it unuseable for people. To FORCE them to get the authenticator.

As said, it's cool. No phone for me ever so I'm stuck with the 15 days.

And fwiw Steam and my email aren't even on the same system. I play Steam from a dedicated gaming rig. Can I request a lower pending time please? Call it 1 day to make it seem like you're still giving me a bit of a kicking to keep me under the thumb.

Nope.

No, you can't. But if you can afford two computers, you can afford a cheap used Android phone.

Don't forget the animals he says he has on his profile plus kids, games and he could get a cheap tablet too.

Someone taking your phone is far less likely then someone getting your Steam and E-mail information. Even if they get your phone, they still need your log-in infromation as well. They would also have to have the password to get into your phone.

There are many ways a phone is more secure.

There is no way for Valve to confirm that and there is nothing preventing you from using one system for both at any given time.

It is also not a common set-up. Most use a single PC for everything, not a dedicated on just for gaming.

Valve we getting 77k hijacked accounts a month before the mobile authenticator and the cooldown. Now they get far less then that. It used to be a 3 day cooldown. That helped a bit, but not nearly as much as the 15 day.

If someone in your friends list has been your friend for a year (could be less, not sure) then there is only a 1 day cooldown for trades, if you wanted to give the cards away to someone who could sell them.

With that many kids, am supprised he doesn't. A table is a great educational tool.

HEY! This topic turned into a 'let's pick on the rich guy who refuses to get a mobile phone.' lol

I'd literally make £3 a year from excess card sales. No one in the whole world is going to tell me that buying a mobile specifically to do that would be value for my money.

The kids have got loads of tablets between them. And 3 of our 4 kids use Macs specifically for net browsing because they are far less likely to get any viruses or malware. (and yes, I know they still can.)

I stick to my PC's. And I have 4 on the go at a time. And yes, I know it's an unusual set up as you say. It's from my days of running 3X FFXI accounts at once so I could farm on two comps whilst actually playing the game on my main comp.

I still say you could implement what I addressed in my post #1 right up there, and put in a way of adjusting the price of listed stuff. That shouldn't be as open to abuse if it needed email verification.

Aah, and good shout on the trading to friends list. Just noticed that.

My daughter's partner lives with us and is on my friends list. Not quite a year yet, but when he has been he could sell all my spare cards to make pennies here and there for his Steam wallet.

Well, if there was a way to adjust the selling price, then it would have a 15 days cool down as well, for obvious reasons.
