Trade Rant Thread V.23

[eagle,]

I hate Non-List to List trading.
It's so bloody confusing....

This... I feel like I'm either underpaying - which will get the opposite person angry at me - or overpaying - which will get me angry at myself. Is there no win to this?

That moment when you offer a gift to someone, then they cancel it, then you think they're being rude, then you re-read their trade rules...and find that they're not accepting gifts. -.- I'm such a bloody idiot.

Soooo a few days ago, I posted this (I don't feel like trying to quote it because 1) the thread's locked, and I don't want to recode everything by hand, and 2) it's long. xD).

The person I got irritated with finally sent a reply a couple of days ago:

Yah Im an American, Yah i lived here my whole life? Ya Sounds like YOUR judgment is WRONG Sorry you hate chatspeek, DumbFk

I didn't bother replying and reported it immediately. I mean, seriously, trying to get around the word filter? (Sadly, I didn't realize that my email was deleting CS help emails until a few hours ago, so I have no clue if the issue was already resolved. Oh well, doesn't make too much of a different to me; it's just a bad trader that I will [hopefully] not run into again.) I was pretty angry for the past couple of days; 'tis why I waited to post about the reply until now. I'm still angry.

First off, that's just a confusing message. I said, and I quote, "I am willing to guess that you spent more than one year learning English." (and my reasoning for that was included in my PM, which I quoted in the other post)

Never did I say something like "I am willing to guess that you are not a native English speaker".

This person said that yes, they're an American, and yeah they lived there their whole life... and therefore my judgment is "WRONG" (caps included)? Wait a second, shouldn't my judgment be RIGHT? O.o;;

What's even more confusing is the fact that they apologized for the fact that I don't like chatspeak (which doesn't make sense in itself--why would someone apologize for someone else's preferences? o.O), and then they proceeded to insult me AND swear at me.

Like what the heck. o.O

//end rage mode (I'm still angry about this; had to let off some steam)

Would you do it if my pet was a Speckled Rat? It's higher than the Rose PPS and it IS over pay on my side; it used to be OMGSORARE, but I really love the Rose Litter.

NO!!!
the deamnd is EXTREMELY low and once Someone offered the OMG so RARE for Rose PPS alone and I was told I am SOOO much better off with the Rose PPS due to the demand difference

OK, then. Don't need to be so rude about it.
