i never have this problem and this is because of low amount of trade credits, points, and open slots!

so maybe its a good thing after all

I managed to send out cancellations and PM's to all the sellers without getting matched for any other games while I took my account out of vacation mode to message them. It really seems like the vacation mode feature was just throw together as an after thought and not much planning went into it. I hope the G-Team seems this thread and re-evaluates how that feature needs to work.

I second a 'vacation mode' revamp.

I love goozex because it's a really cost effective way to get games.  I'm on a pretty strict budget while saving for a new house, and my feedback level is at the 'unlimited sending' level.  Once I've hit my budgeted amount for shipping games, I simply can't afford to send any more for a while.  I've got quite a few games on my 'offers' list, so I hit my budgeted amount pretty quickly.  This week I'm already shipping out four games, and had to turn down a fifth--and it's only Tuesday!

I'd really like to be able to tell Goozex to stop matching me up with games for a while, but still let me log in to confirm shipments and leave feedback.  I do appreciate that my 'requests' queue continues while in vacation mode, though.

I fortunately was able to cancel all the trades I got matched for while I was trying to leave feedback. Everyone seemed to be quite understanding.

This is stupid. I just got matched for another seven while leaving feedback.

lolz XD

 

rofl funniest thing evar. You get matched for games when you dont want to.

Why not just put everything on hold manually one by one? (its a pain but would work)

How about the family, is there anyone at home that can inspect the games upon arrival?

To leave the feedback for you.

There are plenty of work arounds, but it's a hinderous to those of us who only have windows of opportunity to trade, and it disrupts the trading process as a whole when time is wasted matching people up to people who have to reject trades.  I'm not excited about putting all of my offers on hold and then taking them off of hold every two weeks.

Stop and think about how long that would take, even with 50 games.  Every two weeks.

Magiic (and anyone else who thinks this is a good idea), I think the best thing for us to do is ressurect this thread and voice our support of the idea.

Unfortunately I can't put all my games on hold. Goozex changed it so you can only have ten games on hold at a time. Secondly I have so many games to put on hold that there is a high likely hood that I would get matched for other stuff while I was going down the list putting things on hold because you have to reload the page between every hold.

 

It's a pretty stupid situation and it would be really nice if this feature were made to be a little more robust.
