hello and welcome to low-budget gaming
and in this video I wanted to show you
how you can sell items on the steam
marketplace now most of you already know
this but recently I've had a few people
ask me people who are new to steam and
who haven't sold items before so I just
wanted to make a quick basics video
showing you how it's done you would need
to have a steam account obviously and
some items in your inventory to sell and
you would need the steam app on your
smartphone you can get there from the
Google Play Store you need to log in to
both places
now first head over to your inventory
and we'll find an item to sell item
items so these are some of the trading
cards that I have for some of the games
also there are items from specific games
like Bob G has a lot of great so in try
selling some of those as well so out of
this let's pick this card this is lady
Stephanie of town burg this is from
Kingdom Come deliverance and as you can
see this card is currently on sale for 9
rupees 9 rupees would be about 12 13
cents roughly so let's put this one on
sale so it clicked sell and you have to
pick a price whether you want how much
you just want to receive or how much you
want to sell it for so let's say we put
it for let's say a fogies so if I put it
for 8 I'll get 697 so maybe let's just
round it to seven now steam takes a
small cut and the game takes a small cut
so it's roughly about 15 percent less
than 15 so about five of it goes to
steam and 10 of 10 percent goes to the
game itself
so you can agree here and put the card
up for sale now the percentage is not
exactly 15 and the way it works is let's
say you are selling something for 100 if
you were to receive a hundred for it you
would sell it for hundred and fifteen so
it doesn't mean that if you sell item
400 you would get 85 out of it
it's a little less than that you will
still get about 87 something so it's
about thirteen point something percent
to be exact let's see if we can find a
few more items you can sell them to this
card here chadwin of the encounter this
card is selling for 584 rupees about
nine cents so we put this up as well so
we'll put this for five I agree now when
it says agreed next step is to confirm
it on your mobile app I'll do that once
I'm done making all the cars that I need
to sell and let's sell one of the crates
from properties well I have a lot of
press and most of them on our Suleiman
these desperado crates they are
worthless right now so and hold onto
them but I'll sell one of these survival
traits so this is going for twenty-two
and a bit so about thirty-five cents so
we'll put it for let's say twenty three
let's make it twenty one just to make
sure it sells
so this is the price that you are
setting it doesn't mean it will sell
immediately while this is the price that
is currently on right now so I've put
three items next step is I'll go over to
my phone and run from it so here we are
on my phone as you can see I've got
certain apps here I click on Steam and
it'll open up the friends list etc so we
open up the confirmation we need to go
into confirmations and we'll see the
three items that we listed here so we
have the survivor grade the encounter
Trading Card and the lady Stephanie card
from Kingdom Come deliverance so the
prices are set and it also shows in
brackets how much I'll receive after the
cut from Steam and the game so all you
need to do is just select take them and
click confirm selected and that's it the
cards are now listed on the marketplace
so I can go into my market and see if
the cars are still listed or they're
sold now as you can see the encounter
card is still here but the other two are
sold so if we click my market history
you'll see the survivor crate is sold to
buyer is two seven seven zero three six
four one seven somebody and I got 1832
so this is just over 30 cents I would
say and probably just under actually and
then lady Stephanie has sold seven and
somebody bought it as well so that's how
easy it is to sell the items on the
Steam market missing and buying is even
easier you don't even need to confirm
anything so yeah that's a quick look for
anybody who is new to steam now if you
are very new to steam you will need to
have the app installed and you need to
use the app for seven days before you
can buy and sell items instantly what
they do initially is if you don't have
an app or if you just started using an
app you need they will put a hold on
your trades for fifteen days so to be
cold once you have used their for seven
days then you can buy and sell instantly
so that is the only requirement for
first-time users but if you are using it
for a while then you won't have that
problem so yep so hopefully that was
useful to someone and thank you for
watching see you in the next one
