Error (34) when trading is caused when you change your name and attempt to trade soon after. Do not change your name and attempt to make a trade if you do not want to wait for a bit.

Can you get around this error by renaming back to the old name?

No. You have to wait and try it again later.

Give it a few hours. That seems to be what fixes it for most people. It didn't work for me for around 6 hours

It has to be a new bug or something, I am just now seeing people post about it and it has never happened to me before

[B-o-B]

Why does it need to be a bug? what it sounds like is Valve have found another clever way of hindering trade scams/scammers.
Your mobile auth will alert you to this "name" change.
Punished, hmm no. Securer? i hope so.

Valve, literally have to break the entire process down into little iddy bit's and spoon feed the entire process so the " " can actually take a moment to think.

Funny that 'thinking' only happens when they appear here...
I really hope this is the new norm
...brekky anyone?
