'The Trade is on!'
« on March 23rd, 2017, 10:15 PM »
https://lestrades.com/offer/1/

First official completed trade at Lestrade's ;)

You can now go to your Matches page, find a match you want, and click 'Send Offer' next to the user name to start creating your offer.

You can add items, remove items (simply by checking or unchecking the box next to them), preview the offer with the Preview Offer button (I thought it would be a fitting name for a, well, preview option), then send the offer once the preview satisfies you. You can also select the number of items per side.

Once sent, the other trade will receive a notification in their top-left corner. The offer shows as 'Pending' in both traders' Offer page. Once the trader reads the offer, it's marked as 'Active'. The trader has 7 days to decide what to do (no setting up an expiry date for now, of course everything will come in time but I didn't feel it mattered so much). They can then decide to 'Decline' or 'Accept' the offer. Once accepted, you both have 3 days to do the trade and 'Mark it as Completed'. It's pretty self-explained.

There is no countering for now. You can send multiple offers to the same person. There are no declined/expired stats for now. The 7-day/3-day delay isn't currently enforced. You can leave an offer in Editing mode forever if you'd like, but I'll eventually auto-cancel them after a while (like a day).
Tradables are removed from your list automatically once the offer is completed. Wishlist items are supposed to be removed, but I found out at the last minute that it wasn't the case, I'll try to fix that ASAP.

There is still SO MUCH to be done.
But the system WORKS, and you guys waited long enough for a replacement!

I'm not done yet! And neither are you! ;)

My real wishlist is on steam.
My wishlist here is for trading purposes.
I like to trade for games I do not own based on Want/Have Ratio, rather than other approaches.

  • Made my first offer
  • Went to edit it
  • Browsed back to the previous page while in edit
  • Trade is now stuck in edit mode with no way to edit it

11/10 would break the page again. :niark:

Given that 99.99% of all bugs come from 'last-minute changes', I've changed the most likely error I introduced. Hopefully it'll work this time.

It looks really nice! I have sent out a few trade offers and not encountered any bugs so far. It seems to be getting close to Barter's functionality already :)

It better have, with these 2 weeks of work lol! I feel like I didn't get to see my kid in that time! It was just ruthless.
I'm annoyed that there are still a few bugs left though, such as wishlists not being removed because...... Oh wait, I just realized what caused that bug. My queries remove tradable/wishlisted games from the offer by checking for user ID, when it shouldn't bother, since both sides of the trade need to be removed-- one from your wishlist, one from your tradables.
Hear that, devotee? That was it :P

Oh, I forgot to thanks Quantum for doing the initial round of heavy testing for the offer system (he really did his break to break it, and managed on a few occasions!), and devotee for helping me test it today!
