Introducing Steam Community Market (Beta)
Hi Maplers,
We are excited to announce that the v.258 update will include a beta feature enabling the trading of various cosmetic items through the Steam Community Market. Access to this functionality will be available in-game and will include the ability to manage or add items into your respective Steam Inventory!
What is the Steam Community Market?
A dedicated marketplace within the Steam platform, where players can trade items using the Steam Wallet.
The value of Steam marketplace items is determined by player transactions and prices may fluctuate according to supply and demand.
Items that can be traded have no impact on in-game balance, and players neither lose nor gain anything even if they do not purchase any items.
Trading Guidelines: Eligible Accounts
Nexon accounts linked with a Steam account can access the in-game Steam Inventory UI.
The linked Steam account must meet Steam's eligibility requirements for using the Steam Community Market.
Once your Steam account is linked, you can still access your Steam Inventory UI in the game even if you launch MapleStory through the Nexon Launcher.
Target Worlds & Regions
Trades can be made in both Interactive and Heroic Worlds, and can even be made between Interactive and Heroic Worlds.
Trades can be made in both North America and Europe regions, and can even be made between the two regions.
Target Items
Cosmetic items from Surprise Style Boxes sold from January 2017 until now are included in the list of items that can be traded.
This restriction is to help better verify the stability of trades during this beta service period.
The list of items is subject to change at any time.
Only items that are untradable can be sold in the Steam Community Market. As such, items purchased from the Steam Community Market will be untradeable in-game. So, please be mindful when trading.
Oswell's Scissors of Karma: What are Oswell's Scissors of Karma?
In order to trade items from Global MapleStory, Oswell’s Scissors of Karma must be used to move an item from your inventory to your Steam Inventory.
Only items that have been moved to your Steam Inventory can be viewed in the Steam Community Market storage.
[center][/center]
Notice:
The Steam Market is a separate platform from Nexon, so please forward any inquiries or requests for support to Steam Customer Support if you experience any issues.
All transactions are made through the Steam Wallet.
Due to Dutch law, players in the Netherlands cannot access the in-game Steam Inventory UI.
