I honestly like TP. Obstipator is a really nice guy, and we work together to make sure both sites are clean.Originally Posted by Ras

Yeah I'm not saying I don't like TP, its a great site too. Each site has its pro's and con's imo. For instance I do like the fact that the offers you receive are private on TP, whereas on Outpost for them to be hidden from everyone you have to ask the poster to hide his/her own post. Thats just one example. But overall I do feel that outpost hits most of the right buttons for me
But hey there are upgrades in the works, from looking at the TF2TP homepage, so things will only get better on there too.
Got offered a searing gonzilla on my beams buto...

"Quickselling this unusual"
99% of the time, it isn't a quicksell at all. Sadly this happens not only on TF2OP.
The biggest complaint I have about TP is how under-maintained it is. The search has been broken since last year but no-one has bothered to fix it.Originally Posted by Jailbait

I love TF2OP, though I don't use it much for my own trades (as I never trade) but I've figured out the issue.
Words.
If they figured out a hieroglyph system it'd fix nearly 200% of the issues. The two trades I have open are very clearly explained, and out of the ~10 offers I've gotten, 0 have bothered to read.
If there was a picture of a hat, a cauldron with a circle and check mark next to it, a cash symbol with a big X through it, a promo symbol with a big X through it, maybe, just maybe that would work.
OP has its place, usually when I can't find anything good on SourceOp and I absolutely must have a pair of strange Mantreads right the effing now.
It's fun to buy a load of keys, and go hunting for strange parts (why are they so expensive on SOP?) and you meet a lot of interesting people (read: kids and foreigners)
I wish there were more traders like Trunks and Sripakdp that have loads of junk for sale, easily spending as much as a mid tier unusual and then not even using the items.
Someone could easily turn a profit skimming TF2OP and other trade sites so I could get back to owning every item there is, and play some of the other video games I'm neglecting.
