Your account is currently unable to use the Community Market. Any way to fix this?
I just put 60$ on my account and am trying to sell some items to pay for the 5$ tax on the game.
Im trying to sell some skins from my inventory but I get "Your account is currently unable to use the Community Market." Every time, this is the first time this has happened and i've been using steam for probably 3-4 years. Any way to fix this?

exit the Steam client entirely, and log back on after a bit. If you've done what is required to use the market, it may just need to be kicked to start up properly.

Or, there may be specific items that you aren't ABLE to trade - some are not tradeable right away, some not at all.
