Market searching.

[Carcon]

Is there a way to search and view specifics in the market like backgrounds, badges, items etc?

Thanks.

When on the market click on a game you want, then advanced options and use the search filters they have.

Yes, U have the mark ✓ option
Mark what U want to fiind or write name of a specific item

yes guys sorry i meant to add into that, i'm not looking for things from a specific game as such.

For example say i'm looking for a Dog background, i type in Dog but i get everything related to Dog, badges, items, emotes and backgrounds.. so could i narrow it down to just search for backgrounds?

i very rarely buy and search in the market so this might be a simple thing to do!

Yes go to the Steam market tab, advanced options, check backgrounds and add in cutom search. It's still limited and won't search for everything but it's the best we have on Steam right now.

Some 3rd party sites could do a better job.

See this is whats throwing me off because i don't see any options under the advanced options, just a drop down list of random games and a search box but nothing to narrow it down at all.

Your talking about the market tab under the community tab right? Don't tell me theres another somewhere i've totally missed

Don't just throw that out there because cs:go and dota 2 scam trade sites do that. No need to make it sound like they all are doing that. If you have common sense and can see the differnace in them and check they are fine to use.

Try this. that is for background only. You can do it with the rest.

When you go to the Steam market, you need to go to the right hand panel and click on the Steam tab (large list of games). Once there, there will be an "advanced options" on the right side.

Thankyou! Exactly what i was trying to do! I'll need to try and figure this out for myself, it's bugging me now!

Appreciate your time dude

(and i like your shiny gold profile! )

Edit, found it under the steam tab, never actually seen that there!

Last time when i've log into a trade site, i got my Api key hijacked,
That moderators of trading sites don't have any common sense, they want to steal from people
I know U can restore an Api key every day, but for me would be a waste of time to do it frequently, so i'll keep my 👎

It's super easy to not fall for them.

1. Stay logged into Steam and then go to login into a 3rd party site, if you have to relogin (it's fake). You won't have to input your credentials each time if you are logged in.

2. Check the source of the login page and make sure it goes to Steam servers and not some radom place.

My common sense tells me to don't shame that 3rd party site - here, because many people use it
I was log thru Steam, but once U add your trade link and save it in their site, to get hijacked is not far away 👎

Nevermind, our Dude find what he was looking
