Why is it That I have 46 itrader feedback

but only 43 iTrader rating???

you have 43 positive feedback from unique members. 3 are trades with people who you have already gotten feedback from on previous trades.

This helps prevent people who may jack up their itrader with in person trades to try to do some other shady dealings.

oh so I traded with 3 people twice????

thank you!

or 1 person 4 times
or 1 person 3 times and another person twice

Getting feedback from people you've traded with before is still important, of course - it may not increase your iTrader rating but it does show that you are still a regular trader and make a habit of going through with your deals.

Take Nogocat for example....
That total amount is about 65% more than his current itrader.

How do I get my iTrader rating up?

You have to make trades and follow through with them. Then the other person will give you positive feedback which will then increase your iTrader rating.

but I can't post unless I have a 25... hmmm

You can post trade threads with any iTrader level. And you can respond to threads with offers to buy or trade.

You just need a rating of 25 or higher to sell items or hold an auction.

Or you can get permission from a mod to sell, but the stipulation most likely would be you need to send first before receiving payment.

I tried that (of course I asked after posting) and I was denied

Yeah, what gives? I have 1228 itrader feedback and only 646 itrader rating! What a rip off!

Show Off!

Well, zero iTrader feedback is pretty low to host a sale thread.
