Community Market to Buy, Sell & Trade: Your Perfect Loadout

Dear Legends,

Your complete guide to buying, selling, and trading skins in Legend Battles

The world of Legend Battles will be one of the most active and valuable cosmetic economies in gaming—and at the center of it all is the Steam Community Market. This is Valve’s official, secure platform where millions of players can buy, sell, and trade LEGEND BATTLES items every day. From rare knives to high-tier gloves to the newest case drops, the Market is the smartest place to take control of your inventory, earn Wallet funds, and shape your style on the battlefield.

Whether you're collecting, investing, flipping, or just searching for that perfect skin, this guide gives you the full breakdown on how the Market works and how to use it safely and effectively.

How It Works: A Player-Driven Economy

Buying

On the Steam Market, you can purchase:

• Metahuman, clothing and gear skins

• Weapon and vehicle skins

• Emotes, spray tags and weapon charms

Two ways to buy:

1. Buy at the Listed Price Select a seller’s listing and purchase instantly using your Steam Wallet funds.

2. Place a Buy Order (For Commodity Items) For high-volume items like cases, stickers, or cheap skins, you can set the maximum price you’re willing to pay, and Steam automatically matches your offer when a seller lists at that price. This is ideal for patient buyers or traders operating at scale.

Selling

Any Legend Battles item you own can be listed directly from your Steam Inventory:

1. Choose the item → Sell

2. Set your price

3. Confirm via Steam Guard Mobile Authenticator

4. Once purchased, you instantly receive Steam Wallet funds (minus the marketplace fee)

You can then spend these funds on:

• More Legend Battles skins

• Other game items

• Games and DLCs

• Software on Steam

Steam Wallet funds cannot be withdrawn as cash, but they are extremely flexible within the Steam ecosystem.

Trading (Outside the Market)

While the Market handles buy/sell transactions, Steam also includes secure trade offers:

• Trade items directly with friends

• Swap skins with verified traders

• Participate in community trading servers or forums

All trades use Valve’s official Trade Offer system backed by Steam Guard.

Safety First: Why the Market Is the Most Secure Option

The Steam Community Market is protected by:

• Steam Guard 2FA

• Built-in purchase confirmations

• No middlemen or third-party exposure

• Instant, permanent transaction logs

• Automatic fraud prevention

Because transactions never leave the Steam ecosystem, this is the safest possible way to handle your LEGEND BATTLES items without risk of scams, impersonators, or compromised trade bots.

Understanding the Fees

Every time you sell something, Steam automatically takes:

• 5% – Steam fee

• 10% – Legend Battles fee Total: 15% fee per sale

This is why:

• Sale prices are slightly lower for sellers

• Buying prices are slightly higher for buyers

• Third-party markets often appear cheaper (but riskier!)

These fees fund the Steam platform and Legend Battles’ ongoing development.

Before You Start: Requirements for Using the Market

To unlock all Market features, your Steam account must meet Valve’s security standards:

1. Steam Guard Enabled for 15 Days You must have 2-Factor Authentication active for at least two weeks.

2. A Completed Purchase on Your Account You must have made at least one successful purchase (Steam Wallet funds, a game, or DLC) Older than 7 days but less than 1 year.

These rules help prevent fraud and protect legitimate players.
