Cant buy anything from market.
so basically when im going to the steam market this appears ''You must have a valid Steam purchase that is between 7 days and a year old with no recent chargebacks or payment disputes.'' the problem with that is that i already bought some skins from the market before and now it shows me this. not only that but ive bought csgo. does this message mean i must buy another product from steam in order for me to access the steam store?

you have to have a purchase from the steam store that is LESS then 1 year in age. the market is not a one purchase and lifetime access, it is 1 year of access from last purchase from the store.

if you dont keep buying at least once a year, then you will need to wait 1 week after a purchase to use the market again.

Adding non-gifted wallet funds will also meet the valid purchase requirement.

You don't have to keep using the market recently - you just need to meet the valid purchase requirement.

it does not matter how often you use the market. the market REQUIRES you to have a purchase from the steam store or be adding funds directly to your wallet if you want to keep access to the market.

this is a STORE, they want people to spend money on stuff. the market is not you spending money on stuff, its you transferring money to someone else's account. steam does not care how much you spend on the store so long as you are spending on the store, your purchase can be a crappy 50 cent game.

Users confuse "market" to mean the same thing as "store" when they are two separate entities. They'll insist they just made a purchase buying a skin off of the market, or something, not realizing the requirement is for the main Steam Storefront where games are sold.

So buy something from the Steam Store (NOT market) or add wallet funds to meet this requirement and then you'll be able to access the market again. You can buy something from the market to access the market.
