Market delivery and mail FAQ

Open

Check the FAQ before repeating purchases or assuming an item is missing. Steam inventory, in-game mail, sockets, and sync delay can all affect the next safe step.

Use Market as a decision page, not a price promise

This page is strongest when it helps players separate live listings from real value. The useful questions are whether the item is listable, whether it fits the current build, and whether recent update rules changed the safe next action.

Do not describe this page like an official API or guaranteed price feed.

Price screenshots age quickly when listings, cooldowns, or restrictions change.

TradingRarity

Market value starts with rarity

Immortal, Arcana, and higher rarity gear deserves separate review because market-facing value can matter outside pure stage progression.

RulesItem state

Sockets affect eligibility

Before treating a drop as sellable, check its socket state and upgrade layers. Some enhanced items need sockets removed before they can be listed.

Current Market Status and Player Actions

Open

Use the current Market guide before spending a listing slot. It now needs v1.00.21 context: 4 slots, 8-hour cooldowns, Soulstones listable, top-three-grade gear restricted, and Mailbox checks still matter.

TroubleshootingNot marketable

Listing not showing or not yet marketable

Open

If an owned item, Beyond bow, Arcana bow, or high-rarity gear does not appear in Trade Ship, separate ownership from listing eligibility. Check Steam inventory, Mailbox, 4 listing slots, 8-hour cooldowns, grade restrictions, Soulstones, item state, and Market activation delay before reporting it as missing.

New Player Market Reminder

Open

Do not build your whole early plan around selling drops. First confirm whether the item can be listed, whether sockets or upgrades affect it, and whether recent updates changed restrictions.

ChecklistKeep or sell

Keep vs list: use a short value test

Open

Before listing a rare item, ask three questions: does it solve the next progression wall, would it be expensive to replace, and does its socket or unique state make it more valuable than a generic listing?

Progression valueReplacement costSocket state

Items with immediate build value should not be dumped only because they look marketable.

If the answer is unclear, wait until the current market state is stable instead of forcing a fast sale.

FAQ

Quick answers

Is this Task Bar Hero Steam Market page a live price tracker?

No. It is a decision guide. Use it to understand listing rules, item checks, and risk points before you look at the live Market page or spend a listing slot.

Should I sell every high-rarity drop?

No. First compare build value against trade value. If the item solves your current wall or would be expensive to replace, keeping it can be stronger than listing it.

Why is my item visible in inventory but not listable?

Ownership and listing eligibility are separate. Check Mailbox delivery, slot cooldowns, restricted grades, item state, and current market activation timing before assuming the item is missing.

What should I verify before buying from Market?

Check build fit, hero slot, sockets, update state, and whether a cheaper progression upgrade would solve the same problem first.
