Index -> Interface -> Trade Lobby -> Posted Trades

In a posted trade, one player specifies the exact trade he is looking for (both what he wants and what he is offering in exchange), and leaves it in the Trade Lobby like a message board post, waiting for another player to reply and accept the trade. To access posted trades, you can:

• Type /ptrade into the chat; or
• Click on the Posted Trades button in the Trade Lobby.

When you access posted trades, you'll see a window displaying all trades currently being offered by other players.

If you see an offer you'd like, and you have what is specified in the Wanted column, double click on the listing. You be shown a detailed listing of the items involved, and be given the choice to Accept or Close the trade. If you accept, the server will first confirm that both parties still own the items in question, then automatically complete the trade.

You can click the Refresh button to update the window with any new trades added since you opened the posted trades window. You can also use the Search field to look for trades involving specific items. The trade list updates immediately, as you type.

Creating a Posted Trade

To post your own trade, click the Add button at the upper left of the posted trades window. You'll be taken to a special version of the Trade Screen. It works the same way as it does during a live trade, but you will have to specify both sides of the trade yourself by toggling between the Their and Your tabs at the top of the trade binder. Once the You get and They get windows correctly display your proposed trade, click Accept to post it. From there, all you have to do is wait for another player to come along and agree to your terms.
