Warnings

Do you want to trade items in Rocket League? Rocket League has a large collection of customizable items to spice up your look and style. Many items were only obtainable for a limited time during in-game events, making some items hard to get if you miss out. Luckily, Rocket League allows you to trade items with other players. So if you know a player that has something you want, and you have something to offer in return, you can trade items. However, Epic Games will be removing the player-to-player trading feature on December 05, 2023, so you better hurry! ^{[1]
