Ranting about people who go off and call me a spammer.
Trade 1, 3 wish list pets ranging from 09 to present plus $5 for their 09 rare. I even stated that I felt it was just a little shy of being fair to them and to edit if necessary (Not imagining they would be so unfair.).
Their edited suggestion and this is a direct quote: "If you would do me the honor of adding your extra July Lioness to the trade, then I would accept."
My edit back: Longer than this because I used examples, but this is a paraphrase: Hi. That would be an extreme overpayment since the July lioness is worth much more than 1 rare and I could get much more for her at auction." I then sent a suggestion placing a 4th wish list pet into the offer.
Their edit back again still with the 4 wishlist pets and $5 C$: " Not fair to me, I' d never pay an 09 rare for a 12 rare. (I guess their retort to my not adding the July lioness.)" and it came as a suggestion, not as a cancel so I made yet another counter offer.
Ok, I giving them another shot: I added 1 more wish list pet to the trade after I'd visited the fair trade forum and asked both there and my friend who frequents there. Both the reply and my friend (And even my daughter who has been on almost 2 years more than I have.) all said it was fair.
They sent back a canceled trade foeing me, reporting me to the moderators saying I am a pet scammer and that they had been to Xat chat and that people were laughing at the trade therein.
Grrrr. Laughing at someone's trade, even an lol is just rude, condescending and in appropriate, especially since they are the pot calling the kettle black since they tried to get me to give them my extra July lioness for just 1 rare and they didn't even take off the other 3 pets in the offer, they wanted all 3, plus the $5 C$ plus the lioness for 1 09 rare.
Ok, long rant but boy am I ever mad for being reported as a scammer when all I did myself was add and add and then add again (3 times) to the trade and I even offered real money C$. Older rares that are not rares list are only worth between $15 and $25 C$ with more popular coming in at $26 to $35 from what I've learned in the "How much C$ is this pet worth" thread. It takes Rares list or Advent list to go much higher than that, so $5 plus the 5 pets should have been absoultely fair, if not more than fair.
