Trade system

thumb|The former trade system that was used from 2012 until the redesign in 2020.
The Trade System is a Premium feature that allows users to trade accessories, gears, and faces. It was released in the summer of 2012.http://blog.roblox.com/2012/08/trading-for-profit-and-fun-the-one-week-challenge-part-1/ and http://blog.roblox.com/2012/08/trading-for-profit-and-fun-the-one-week-challenge-part-2/ The trade system was used and discussed in the now deleted Let's Make a Deal subforum. Several places have been created where players are encouraged to use the trading system, the most notable being the Trade Hangout game.
==Trade options ==
*Accept: Clicking this button will redirect a user to a screen that asks if they want to complete the trade, clicking "Yes" this will give them the items that they will receive and the items will go to the requester. It will also be archived into your completed trades.
*Counter: Clicking this button will redirect you to the trade window, countering there trade partner's request will replace the trade and leave the requester a trade inbound, it is useful to change the circumstances to even the trade.
*Decline: Clicking this button will redirect a user to a message that asks if they want to reject the trade, clicking "Yes" will archive the trade into a users Inactive trades.
==Adding Robux==
There is also the ability to add Robux to a trade, which can be added at the bottom of the trading display. Anyone can add the number of Robux depending on how much each user has. The amount of Robux sent in a trade post-transaction fee's may not be more than 50% of the RAP of included items. There is also a 30% fee that will take away 3/10th of the original price which has that 30% of the Robux going directly to Roblox.
==Values==
Value, while an unofficial concept, still remains heavily used within trading. It is an appraisal of how much an item is worth, determined by submitted proofs of inbound and completed trades. The most popular value website is Rolimon's.
==Trivia==
*Ever since the Trading System came out, many items in the marketplace and games on the Discover page are frequently flooded with messages asking them to trade, but this has gone inactive due to the removal of comments.
*The Trade System was one of the most requested features by users before it came out.
*If at least one of the users have no limited items, their privacy settings set disable trading, or doesn't hold a Premium membership, a trade cannot be done.
*In 2021 Two Step Verification was added on to trades; this was likely done due to the high amount of scams of compromised accounts resulting in stolen limiteds and Robux.
*As of September 16, 2022, There is a rate limited on trades only allowing you to send 100 trades per day; this was likely done due to the mass amount of "Trade Bots" which were scripts that automatically sent out hundreds of trades an hour.
