How do I get started?

In order to automatically sync your wishlist and library, set your Steam profile to public. If your profile is private, the collection will remain empty until you manually add games.

Library and wishlist can automatically sync based on your preferences and when you complete an offer ( if your profile is public ).
For your tradable collection, if you have a trading list, you can copy and paste it to https://barter.vg/u/my/t/e/ then click "+ Add List".
If you haven't organized your tradables, you can copy and paste directly from Humble Bundle or Groupees. Both sites allow you to hide already used keys. Before posting the list, you can test it at https://barter.vg/list/
You can also add tradables by the bundle at https://barter.vg/bundles/
How do I find a game?
Search or browse at https://barter.vg/search?q=
If you know the Steam appID or subID, barter.vg/steam/app/212680 or barter.vg/steam/sub/14181
I have a GOG / Origin / Uplay game. How do I indicate that?
The same games on different platforms are considered different items.
For example,
The Witcher 3: Wild Hunt on Steam ( https://barter.vg/i/394/ ) is different from
The Witcher 3: Wild Hunt on GOG ( https://barter.vg/i/40041/ ).
If you have a non-Steam tradable, ensure that you select the correct item and not the Steam version of it. If the correct profile is missing, request the missing game
