Does buying Dota 2 InGame items unlimit my account?

[Prodigy+]

I redeemed a steam wallet code for 250php (5.42USD) any thoughts?

As long as you meet the $5 USD amount in your currency that is actually added to your Steam wallet, as you maybe seem to have done, your account should become not limited. Sometimes, it may take a short while for it to update so you are no longer limited. If you spent that much so far in Dota2, that also covers this, yes.

If you are talking about the market, then you have to indeed make a purchase and wait 30 days. A purchase does include items such as ingame Dota2 items, yes.

Purchase Limitations

Your account must have a successful purchase older than 30 days, but not older than a year in order to access the Community Market. The purchase of wallet funds, games, DLCs and software meet this requirement. Retail CD key activations and gift purchases do not satisfy this requirement.

Sorry to bother you but ingame items/dlcs are not included in this purchase. It MUST be a game worth at least 5$ to gain access to the market.

How do I gain access to these features?
You will need to spend at least $5.00 USD within the Steam store.
Some examples of purchases that grant access to these features are:
Adding the equivalent of $5 USD or more to your Steam Wallet
Purchasing GAME(s) that are equal to $5 USD or more from the Steam store
Adding a Steam Wallet card that is equal to $5 USD or more to your Steam account
Purchasing a Steam gift that is equal to $5 USD or more from the Steam store (Receiving a Steam gift from a friend doesn't count)
Each Steam purchase total will be tracked in USD. If your Steam store's currency isn't in USD, it will be tracked and converted to USD automatically using daily exchange rates.

Yes, a purchase is a purchase. An ingame transaction is considered a microtransaction and covers the market restriction. OP is talking specifically about having a limited account.

There are no details about dlc or items

It clearly says "some examples of purchases".

OP, go here and see how much money you have actually spent on your Steam account.

I am not telling YOU anything now. I said "OP" not Scar. If you buy a game that is over the $5 USD amount then that covers BOTH the market restriction of 30 days AND the limited account issue. You seem to be mixing up two different things here entierly. You just quoted text above from the limited account pinned thread and then before that you said a user has to spend $5 on a game to access the market. That is not accurate.

If that is indeed more than $5 USD in your currency, then yes, that should make your account not limited. The market is a totally sepearte issue. If you want to use the market, then you have to make a purchase and wait 30 days.

If the "treasures" were over $5 USD, then that should make him not limited anymore. I don't know because he is not here right now. I can only try to help you here and give you official sources of information to support what I am saying.

I'm pretty sure it was 5.42USD

Are we back to talking about you here or your friend, please ? This is getting a bit confusing...

And you are "pretty sure" ? Why not go on Google and search PHP to US Dollars and do the math and make sure, please. PHP changes quite often as far as I know, so that can matter.

Well steam tracks any purchases right? So i guess my friend bought lots of treasures, which all adds up to the 5 USD... i think?
