Play Steam, Make Money

  1. So it has come to my attention that Steam has introduced a "marketplace" in where you can sell certain things for actual factual cash to fill up your steam wallet to buy more stuff via steam.. xD ..I "made" $0.30 selling a couple of my gift copies of the beta steam TCG invite earlier.. At the moment, all that they have are the boxes from TF2 and DOTA2, DOTA2, and a few other random things as well as all of the Trading Cards from this new beta.. Some of which are selling for $20+ "foil".. o,o' ..At the moment though, only a few games are supported.. TF2, DOTA2, CS: GO, Don't Starve, HL2 and Portal 2. By supported, I mean by dropping the Trading Cards.. This has seriously made me reinstall TF2, although I haven't really enjoyed it, because I get way more confused playing DOTA2 than I ever did playing LoL and I unfortunately don't own any of the other games.. :( ..I am wondering if the Market Beta is part of the TCG beta though.. <,<

  5. o,o'... Sooo I opened TF2 and had 7 items waiting for me.. Including the Black Rose that I [complained] about not getting for completing an achievement in another game.. I also was given several items for preordering Tomb Raider.

  6. I didn't know about the marketplace until earlier when I was trying to level up my profile in the TCG beta.. xD ..I usually play games and don't pay attention to the steam client itself unless I see something is on sell or whatever..

  7. This has been around for quite a while although it has always been in beta... Still is... But yeah it is "sorta" a way of making money :D
    Might I ask what is TCG?

  10. This seems like a good way to get some ground in trading does anyone have a spare invite for the cards?

  12. I thought about using this system. My back-pack is worth several hundred dollars, and since this is reliable it's been extremely tempting, but I don't have a good enough computer to warrant so much money on my steam account haha.

  14. The only game that is tradable on the system is DOTA 2, unfortunately.. :\
