P2P or P2B

[ostinanderson]

Feels like p2p trading kinda died out ever since all that “trade protection” stuff got stricter. Kinda sucks, cause back then it felt way more personal when you dealt straight with other players, Now it’s all middlemen and fees.
Do you guys think it’s even possible to negotiate with platforms or get lower fees if you’re trading a lot? Or maybe some collab-type thing with other traders to make it less painful?

How you even gonna bargain with them?
You either gotta be well-known or move big volume, that’s the only way. They only really care about the big traders, those guys always get the perks. I’m telling you this as someone who’s been looking into how they work

Hey, I’m not really talkin’ about trust here, more like the opportunities they should be givin’ us. Steam’s always been around and prob will be, but the prices they slap on stuff ain’t fair. Why’s it cheaper on third-party sites than on Steam?

P2P ain’t what it used to be. fees everywhere now

I guess it's because you pay more for security the steam market provides
