You need the minimum paid membership (Basic) to be allowed to post a thread in the trade forum.

However, you can still send trade offers to those with existing threads without a paid membership.

A basic membership is required to post in the trade section. More info here

I don’t believe I’ve ever commented on how someone should spend their own money but this website is not free to exist.

Also if the $10 a year for a membership is too much of a stretch then the cost of shipping your side of a trade might surprise you.

It used to be like that, but the rule was changed back in 2013. https://bladeforums.com/threads/paid-susbscription-to-trade.1115663/

You're not prohibited from trading, you just can't start your own thread. As they say, membership has it's privileges.
