Trade error 15 is one such error that you will have to encounter at some time while you are trading something or making an offer on the steam and here are a few things that you will need to do in order to have this fixed.

How to Fix Steam Trade Error 15?
1. Inventory Problems

You will have to get this error when you are trying to make a trade offer to someone and it will say, trade offer failed, error 15. This is something common that you might have to come across quite often. The most common reason behind you facing these problems is that the other person that you are making a trade offer should have some slots on his inventory empty to accept the trade offers from you.

If their inventory is full, they will not be able to accept any trade offers for you. To begin with, you will be facing this error and the trade offer will not go through in the first place. You will have to make sure that there are some empty slots in your inventory as well as the other person’s inventory who you are trying to send out the trade offer and that is going to help you out perfectly in making it work for you.

Afterward, you will not have to face any sort of problems like this at all and you will be able to get around the trade error 15 by ensuring that inventories have these empty slots.

2. Multiple Trade Offers

Another possible reason that can cause you to face such errors on the Trade offers is that you might have a pending trade offer to the same person that is not accepted or rejected yet, or you might have initiated a trade offer for the same thing previously and that might be pending as well.

So, you will have to check on all the pending trade offers and ensure that there is no such problem with some pending trade offers that might be causing you to face this problem. After you get that sorted out, you will be able to ensure that you are not going to face this problem again on your steam account.

3. Relog

Another thing that you will need to be careful about is logging the account. If you are using some VPN, you will have to disable that and login to your steam account with some IP that you have used before. This will certainly be helping you out greatly and you will not have to face any such problems afterward on the Steam account while making the trading offers.

If you are using the VPN, steam might block trade offers at times to ensure the security of your accounts. Once you log out and log in using some known IP Address, that will help you out perfectly in sorting out the problem for you.

4. Reinstall

If nothing has worked for you, there is not much that you can do. You will need to uninstall the steam engine from your PC, restart it once, and after that install the latest version on your PC. That will certainly help you out in solving the problem for good and you don’t have to worry about a thing after that. If the reinstall doesn’t work for you, you can reach out to Steam Support and they will be able to fix the problem for you.

This thread was quite old before the recent post, so we're locking it to prevent confusion.
