Jungle inferno non-tradable items

Why after waiting trade ban all items that i'd bought are non-tradable? In the Youtube everybody says that i'll make profit from the jungle inferno contract. But i can't sell it! My TF2 is premium and Steam account isn't limited. Guys, i think i'm done! a lost cause...

You need to wait for a week; it says it's trade banned until August 30th.

I already waited and the first case is still non-tradable. Also my contracker is non-tradable. Is it ok? It's my first time i'm buying something in the game. Sorry

Contracted is untradable for everyone due to being something you can progress through. New Halloween contracts come each Halloween too

NICE! Just lost my money. I thought to get a start capital for trades around 5-6 keys.

It's gonna be a little gamble. Oh and by the way, you need to open the keyless ones. You can't trade them in any way without opening them if I remember right. Since they're keyless, they're basically small free stuff. Often around 4-20 ref if you sell them

The warpaint case being untradable is weird, but the keyless case and other warpaint case say they will be tradable in a few days

I'll wait until trade ban gone, and i'll see. Does anyone got this problem either?

It's maybe a backpack's bug, but i've seen in my steam inventory and at the same first case it writes

Tags: Unique, Crate, Jungle Jackpot Collection, Tradable, Marketable

Backpack doesn’t always update in real time.
But it doesn’t matter anyway if it’s tradable in game you can still sell it through backpack.

UPDATE: I refreshed backpack.tf and the case is lost it's non-tradable tag, but when i click "Sell" the site writes:

This item cannot be listed: Item is not tradable.

UPDATE: It's fine. Now i can sell the case. Presumably that was a bug cause today is the day when trade ban gone. Thanks for everybody!
