A tip to all traders
In this post, I will be explaining how I trade and how to advertise your trades on sites, in-game, or anywhere else (or at least how I do it)
1. First off, learn how to bind a key to your trade advertisement. This makes trading and game-pay much easier. Just enable your consol then type "bind [key] "say [trade advertisement]"". It allows you to continue playing without stopping to either type the entire thing in chat or type "ctrl + v" (Copy & Paste). This bind trick can be used to bind a key to kill yourself, except a trade, etc.
2. Make an eye-catching trade advertisement. If nobody sees it, nobody will buy/do anything. Try to make it easy to spot, wether with weird symbols, all caps, etc.
3. Make your advertisement simple and quick-to-read. Take my trade advertisement into consideration: "Selling everything on Page 4 of my BP. [!bp pyth] | Buying: [insert items here]." This quickly states what you are selling/buying, how to find it, and what I want. If anyone asks about prices, you can ask them to trade you to make an offer or just say it in chat
4. Use trading sites to your advantage: http://www.tf2outpost.com ; http://bazaar.tf ; http://backpack.tf ; etc.
Just know that someone is looking for anything you are selling. And someone is selling anything you are buying. Now, selling your items may take a while, and buying items, prehaps even worse, but I hope this guide helps you sell even faster.
