Trade Rant Thread [V.29][Read All the Rules Before Posting]

['Possum]

I hate "Make me an offer" suggestions worse than "What do you want for this?" trades I think.
D:

Especially when I do some research after cancelling and find out they have the offered pet in an auction.

So what? Was my "offer" going to be an unwilling bid in an auction I want no parts of? I hate auctions! Hate hate them! I can't stand being strung along. Send me a trade I can accept or cancel. Don't ask me to edit and then leave it sitting there, which is what usually happens.

I'm having some trouble finding the trade but picture this: I'm a newbie and I never knew about the advent, September, and mainlist. I find someone who has a banana. I'm drawn to it not knowing what it's worth and offers commons and verycommons. They actually accept! Then someone offers some random '09 rares and very rares. I was almost at the very top of the mainlist, then scammed as a newbie. When I was looking through all my trades this trade almost made me cry ;(

no sorry this is an advent

No sorry, that ain't an advent, and will most likely take years for it to reach the advent list if it ever does.

NOBPDY TRADES THEM.
Seriously. I must've tried 100 people today.

I send a trade, they let it rot for a week.... Aaaaand they cancel. I even said they could edit, but apparently that's too much work.

It's been a hard year of trading to get there from a mid advent... but finally has sunjewel :3 phew.

*looks at remaining trade fodder*

Ah.

Well... I started off with less than this before XD Guess I can do it again!

Still... the feels... they are mixed joy and... well... I'm not sure if there is a word for it, but that feeling where you have a mountain sitting in front of you that you have to climb. Yeah... that one XD Impending doom perhaps?

Whee trading *facedesk* What a rollercoaster of feels.

I wish people would read my rules.

[-TheBigBlueBear-]

I haven't ranted here in awhile but seriously.
I don't even.
I get this today


Could you offer C$ for this? If not, you can have it.



So I send this back to them figuring it's nicer to swap than for them to give it to me.


Sorry :c I would not. Everything ony wishlist is a hoard basically :c I'm sorry.



They then proceeded to cancel hours later .__.
My problem isn't really all that. I guess I kinda understand, but the message that went with it was irritating as heck.
With their cancellation they said


Uh, no. WL only unless rare or higher.


What?
WHAT?
You sent it to me buddy. You broke my rules by sending a suggestion and after it clearly states at the top that I'm not trading C$ For hoards. Everything on my wishlist is a hoard.

You even offered to give it to me and I thought I'd try to be helpful since the shark ponies are good fodder since I know a lot of hoarders of all the outcomes.
Also when you send someone a trade do you really really expect them to read your rules?
I don't have time from that on mobile when I have a job and I'm going on vacation. As if I'm not already busy enough.
Seriously. I don't even get it. *drop kicks*

[Loui.]

Yes, I've got two Shima Foxes.
But that doesn't mean I will give it to you for free or cheap.
I dont care if it's your dreamie or your uncles girlfriend her friend's cat died and looked like a shima.
No. No sob storys. I'm sick of that. x.x
Go and work for your dreampet and dont bug me.
