Will the market hold timer reset if I change the price on an item I'm trying to sell?
I inicially bought a CSGO knife for 49€ while the hype for the new case brought a lot of quicksellers to the market, and since then I put it up for sale for 68€ since that's what I thought the price would be at once the market hold would end. But there's just a few more days until the market hold ends and the price is at around 75€. Is there any way I can change the price on my knife without the timer to reset back to 15 days?

Nope. You would have to remove it and then relist it with the new price which would start the whole 15-day hold all over again.

Well that sucks, if they want to add this whole ♥♥♥♥♥♥ market hold thing at least they should let us change the price without having to remove the item and relisting it again and wait 15 more days.

Use mobile authentication and you can list items instantly, otherwise you must wait 15 days. This isn't a "concept", it is a security feature and won't be removed any time soon, if ever.

I also never understand why people blame Valve; 77000 idiots a month were losing access to their accounts and all their inventory, they're the people that caused trade and market holds to be implemented.

The mobile authentication is crap, they just want to make money datamining your phone. Only ♥♥♥♥♥♥♥ would lose their accounts every month. If they want a solution to this then they should just give you an IQ test before creating your account. Anything higher than 10 would get in, since only people below 10 IQ would lose their accounts that easily.

You can still use one of the many alternatives that run on PC.

They don't seem to get that 1:1 trading 5 cent card for another 5 cent card isn't really how anyone's inventory gets emptied, so little hope for allowing anything cheap on market without crapp either.

I was really hoping that at least I'd be able to raise the price on my knife without having to wait 15 more days...

Really. I've had little trouble selling my cards and such. They get snapped up the same day the hold ends.
