Guide: Steam trade restrictions: why you can't trade and how to check

3,838 skins where buying on a 3rd-party marketplace and selling instantly into the highest Steam Market buy order still turns a profit after Steam's ~15% sale fees, biggest spread first.

Marketplace Overview: Live Listings & Best-100 Arbitrage Rate

Ordered by each marketplace’s arbitrage rate, best first. Dots: the median of that marketplace’s best 100 listings (or all of them, if it has fewer), priced against selling instantly into Steam’s highest buy order after Steam’s ~15% fees — green means its top flip candidates are genuinely profitable. Bars: Rust listings live on that marketplace right now (~5 min refresh).

Seller fees when selling on-site: RustSkins 1% · CSDealsMarketplace 2% · TradeRust 2% · LISSkins 5% · DMarket 5% · RustTM 5% · ManncoStore 5% · Waxpeer 6% · Skinport 8%. Trade-site prices (CS.Trade, Tradeit.GG, Swap.GG, Loot.Farm) are shown as their effective cash cost after each site’s deposit bonus.

Cross-market arbitrage - Rust skins priced lower on a third-party marketplace than their Steam Community Market exit price, whether selling instantly into the highest buy order or undercutting the lowest listing, refreshed directly from each marketplace's own API rather than a cached aggregate.

Frequently Asked Questions

Third-party marketplaces set their own prices independently and often undercut Steam to attract buyers - the gap shown here is the actual, current spread between the two, not a stale estimate.
