Trading
Trading with another player through a trade window is safe: nothing changes hands until both of you confirm.
How to trade
- Stand within 10 blocks of the other player.
- Run
/trade <player>, or shift-right-click them. - They have 60 seconds to accept.
- Both of you add your items and confirm.
- You then have 5 seconds to back out before the trade completes.
What cancels a trade
- Moving
- Interacting with something
- Using a command
Things to know
- You cannot add items if your inventory would be too full to receive the trade.
- Spectators cannot trade.
- Scamming is against the rules, and a dropped-item "trade" has no protection, so always use the trade window.
