Will purchasing a booster pack on the Community Market and turning it into cards still have trade restrictions applied to it?
To my disappointment, Steam now prevents you from trading purchased items right away. I'm wondering if there is a way around this by purchasing a booster pack, then immediately opening it and trading the cards you get?
Will Steam allow this, or will the waiting period on trading still apply?
Best Answer
Any item purchased on the Steam Community Market has a trade restriction applied to it immediately for 1 week, so no, you won't be able to bypass the trade restriction as that also applies to the cards unboxed that way.
