It would be very useful to have a way to know who's reliable when trading. Some people are seemingly very reckless in wasting people's time;
Not looking at the offer's details before engaging in the trade
Outright canceling the trade last minute (after having arranged everything) without warning
Making a reservation, before outright jumping on another offer, again, without warning
Making offers before going quiet, or outright vanishing, for days without mentioning it
Abuse of such a feature could be limited so only people who post in a sale/buy offer can be marked by the one creating the offer, and vice versa. Making it so it only shows up after X amount of marks from different people could limit the abuse possibility. Defining certain criteria (trust threshold, time since account was created, etc) to also be able to give such a mark could further limit it.

Trust. Have you had the opportunity to receive or exchange trust yet after a successful trade? Looks like it, you're at 17.
I can't be expected to make (even more) complex functionality like this on top of the trust system. Witch hunting features where people are 'marked' with thresholds etc. always leads to a bad place. There are plenty of systems already in place to mitigate these kinds of things as much as possible, but I can't control the weather mate.
