No. Absolutely no. Only trade for what fits in a single trade window. Never trade outside the Steam trading system.

It will be at your own risk. Since that is a trade outside the system, Steam will see it as a gift, and if you do get scammed, Steam Support will not help you.

If you still feel the need to ask here after all that, RIP items won't last long.
He doesnt want to buy knife from market because knife would be untradable for 7 days.

No, it doesn't. +rep is just text. Scammers can +rep themselves, or +rep each other, or use hijacked accounts to +rep. Even if you believe the person knows a YouTube guy, that does not make them trustworthy. Furthermore, even if the person who owns the account knows Anomaly, the account could be hijacked.

Rep is useless, he can remove any bad rep. Or just block people he scammed.

Also if you check on Steamrep.com he has been reported for scamming.

He is lying to you so he gets the knife for free. This reason is not worth the risk for you, that is his problem not yours. Sell it on the market to someone else.

Helpfull thx ^^

I reported him and blocked him. Thank you for your help <3
Forcen Jul 13, 2015 @ 7:12pm 
For the future, if you need to have rep and trust to trade safely you are trading the wrong way.
If you trade right you can see exactly what you are being offered, you can always check if the item is the thing offered is actually what the other person said it was and what they ask for and so on. If you use gifting instead of trading there is risk with them chargebacking and so on. The links i posted above shows many types of scams.

And if he's such a high level trading expert how come he doesn't know the report function won't do crap and might infact put you at risk since money trades are illegal so even if you're the victim, you'll be trade banned. Notice how he also pushes you to do this trade quick, so you don't back out and make you feel like you have no choice, and then notice how he insults you when he thinks you've figured him out.

^^^ This ^^^
You want my knife for 70, fine, no prob, I just listed it on the market, go buy it there.

+rep is worthless. Infact; any profiles littered with this should be held under suspicion. It's best to deal with Level 10+ users with a market showcase which displays their trade history success.

What trades should I avoid?
''Do not trade for anything that cannot be added into the trade window within Steam. The most common examples of these scenarios are the following:
Trading items/gifts for money outside of the Steam Community market. You cannot add Wallet credit, PayPal, gift cards or any form of money into the trade window''

4:05 - OriGaMi l Buying Skins: You send offer, and before I accept it, I will send you the codes, and when you say they work, I will accept the offer.

Oh yeah this makes him sound really trustworthy.

You cant fit it in a trade window, don't do it. Rep means nothing, you can beg for rep, you can do it yourself with fake accounts, you can delete all the posts saying "omg you scammed me good and proper'.
