Once I lose a villager's trade option, can I ever get it back?

Arqade Asked on August 31, 2021

Once you out-trade a villager’s specific option, you lose it: it has a large red X on it, and you cannot make that particular trade anymore. Is there any way to recover options that fall to this fate?

Yes, you need to trade with them using one of their other trade options.

From the Minecraft Wiki (emphasis mine):

Villagers will deactivate an offer if the offer has been used some number of times and it is not the villager's only offer. The chance of an offer's deactivation is random, but an offer must be used at least 3 times before it is eligible for deactivation. After an offer has been used 13 times, it is guaranteed to be deactivated if you close the interface after trading it (this is true even if all 13 trades have been done at once). Trading the last offer may activate an offer again.

No, the specific trade that has an X on it is not able to be done again. The villager will have other trades, but that specific trade is unavailable forever.

Yes, you should be able to use that offer again if you simply preform some other trades with that Villager specifically. To avoid the trade being blocked, simple make sure to not trade over 7 or so times at once and wait a while between trade sessions.

When a villager goes to its trading station, for example a tool smith going to a smithing table, the villager replenishes his trades because he replenishes his stock.

I personally have tested this theory and they get the red x because they're out of stock or you've traded too many times they need to refresh up there trade table that they use

Depends on the mod. For PE: To let you trade again, it will have to go to it's workstation block to restock. For Java: It can only stock 2 times, the next day it will reset and be able to stock again another 2 times.

it will replenish eventually if the villager gets to its job site block, but the items required to do the trade might have increased (or decreased)

I play on a PlayStation, so for me there is no way to get a trade back. But I have learned that you may be able to get a trade back on different devices where you simply do a higher trade and possibly get the other trade back.
