The Mann-Conomy Update was a major content release for Team Fortress 2, released on September 30, 2010. In total the update added 65 new items, including community-contributed content from the Polycount Pack contest. The update also introduced the Mann Co. Store, the Steam Wallet Template:W system, and item trading. As an interesting note, clicking the top of the tower on the front page of the update brings you to a full quality picture of the entire building. Also, clicking on the gorilla at the bottom of the page will bring you to a high-quality picture of the gorilla with a frame around it.

Trading

Main article: Trading

"Trading is an in-game system allowing players to swap weapons, hats and misc items allowing players to obtain items that they desire. Some items, such as the Gentle Manne's Service Medal, the Golden Wrench and store-bought items and items given through gifts are 'untradable', meaning that they must remain on the original account that obtained them. Surprisingly, Bill's Hat, the Lumbricus Lid and the Alien Swarm Parasite can be traded.

As of now, it is possible to trade with players on a players friends list and with other players in their current server.

If one player has another player's Steam Community ID, then there is also an option to trade directly with that player. This makes it easy to trade with someone who isn't in the same server that you are.

However, although it might seem obvious, both trade "partners" must be playing Team Fortress 2 if they wish to trade. It should also be noted that purchased items are not currently tradeable."
