Account not trusted?
I bought the Postal 2 4 pack yesterday, and I noticed today all my spare copies are untradable until June 7th since my account isn't trusted; I bought Kerbal space program just last month, and I've had an account for quite some time now. What's going on here?

Is your Steam on? also did you pay fro two of the games with the same payment way? (as in same card/same Paypal account and so on)

My last purchase from a prepaid card was early Febuary, and after that I used the same paypal I always use to buy Kerbal space program last month. I used that same paypal to buy postal yesterday.

and you did not turn off Steam guard right?

Was your purchase of kerbal MORE then 30 days ago(and obviously less then 1 year)? if not

Only gifts that are purchased on trusted accounts can be traded immediately; otherwise there is a 30-day cool down before the gift can be traded. Any account that has made any valid purchase from the Steam Store more than 30 days ago is considered trusted. This is to ensure that all games traded are valuable, and help prevent fraudulent purchases for the purpose of trades. If you do not make a purchase on your Steam account after being labeled as trusted within a year your status will be reset and you will need to wait an additional 30-days before being trusted again.

Otherwise, have you turned on/off steam guard recently. just a guess but that might change your account status.

Edit...little slow to post.

I bought a game (2 or more actually) in February, so I've made a purchase more than 30 days ago, within a year. My steam guard hasn't been turned off. I do remember somewhat recently verifying my email after a prompt came up one day; would that mess up trusted status?

no it will not... you did not change mail right?

Also did you maybe try these on the Browser as well as the Steam client?

The only time I have ever used my steam account in my browser was March 27th to redeem a humble bundle key. I have never changed my associated email address.
