Why won't this command work? [duplicate]

/summon Villager ~ ~2 ~ {Offers:{Recipes:[{buy:{id:371,Count:15},sell:{id:264,Count:4}}

I'm using this as a recycler villager, and I can't get the first trade to work. What's going on?

If you remove the text from the NBT tag, you get this:

{{[{{},{}}

This shows that you have unbalanced brackets. To correct this, just add ]}} to the command, to close all the brackets.

/summon Villager ~ ~2 ~ {Offers:{Recipes:[{buy:{id:371,Count:15},sell:{id:264,Count:4}}]}}

In future, you could use MCStacker, a tool for generating longer commands.
