Clear Steam Store Transactions History
Hello, I would like to be able to clear the history of my purchasings from the steam market, simply because I dont want to be reminded of how much I spent on things that I consider silly such as cs go skins, and I think that it is well whitin my rights to have the option to do that, what do you guys think, and what do you think I should do to get help about this matter?
thanks
Oh and my trade history as well, I did some trades that I regretted and want to forget about them

Then, should you get hijacked, the hijacker can easily cover its tracks by deleting the transaction history, leaving you with no clue about where your Steam Wallet money or inventory went and stopping you from finding out the profile which benefited from the transaction (who is either the hijacker, one of his alts or a stolen account).

So, no, I don't think users should be able to do it, if only to prevent the above.

I understand, that's a very good point, I thought about that and was thinking about email confirmation, something like the one you get to do when you login from another device, but I guess I'll just have to learn to live with my market history lol

Then you have no less than three friends lying to you. The transactions history is stored at Valve's not accessible to the user. Valve is required by law to have full transaction histories of the accounts for a certain time frame.

That time frame is functionally indefinite
