Players can't sell or buy items or view their inventory, probably because of Dota 2

Valve's Steam service has been experiencing a lot of issues in recent days, starting on May 31 and continuing even today, June 2, in regards to its Community section as well as the Market or the Inventory mechanics.

Steam is one of the most popular digital distribution services in the world, serving users on PC, Mac, and Linux and offering a huge amount of different games, software, and tools for game development to avid customers around the world.

At the same time, it also has a diverse community and even mechanics to support the trading, selling, and buying of in-game items for titles like Dota 2, Counter-Strike: Global Offensive, or Team Fortress 2.

Unfortunately, in recent days, every morning in the EST timezone, the Steam Market, Community, or Inventory systems have become unavailable or have experienced issues with the loading process, causing errors or unresponsive web pages.

Valve hasn't offered any explanation for these lengthy issues and many users are upset about the fact that they can't sell or buy new in-game items.

The problems started when Valve rolled out the Immortal Treasures for Dota 2 users on May 31, so it could have something to do with the influx of players who wanted to sell or buy more treasures or improve the level of their Compendium, to generate them more treasures.
