Sorbets are just awful for demand. No one wants them or thinks they're worth anything. :C


Which makes them an impossible dream pet >.> XDD

    These are a few 08 Advents. A few 08 Advents. It can't be true that they not even go for a few advents. I am...depressed.

No, they really should be able to easily. If I had the pets to offer for that, I'd snap it up in a second. xD

Another semi-rant:
I am seriously never going to find a blue toxic. x.x Even when I decide to cut down my wishlist, I can't achieve anything. The only chance I have is working my way up the rares list with my line tribal, but nobody seems to want them, or my grinners either. Everyone just wants my balloon dog, who was my first real dreamie (besides the raven dog, which I gifted away and now have to go looking for again xD) and from a friend who was gracious enough to accept massive underpay. <3
It's just an endless cycle with me. |D I need fodder, but I have no way of getting any. :P

I cut my wishlist down after I got my Black Advent. The Blue Sorbet and the Orange Cerberus are my top dream pets now :D I've been having a hard time trading for them >.>

    They might value VR=VR or they don't like Blue Sorbets, they already own 'em, they can't trade the Advents away because of personal reasons.. I honestly don't know.

    I . just . want . to . get . theeese . advents D:< I'm 9 pets away from a complete collection and all 9 pets are mid advents. Not even a Cookie or something, just normal advents. Okay, Hollyfoxes are harder to get, but seriously? //end rant.

:C

Rant:

When you gift someone and it ends up being traded or in a trade fodder. Honestly,it was a GIFT. That's like in real life re-gifting your gift you got from a friend. It'd be wrong,ignorant,and rude. I don't care if it's "their pet and they can do what they want with it." It was a GIFT. The least they should do is keep it in a locked group and appreiciate that someone actually gifted them. D:< /endrant

I must disagree with the idea that "Gifts should never ever ever be traded".
If a gift makes someone feel :) , but they could add a few of their pets to it in a trade and get a pet that makes them feel :D , is that really such a bad thing? The gift made them happy, but then trading it made them even happier. And, therefore, the gifter made them happy twice -- once when gifted, and again when the gift was traded.
(Of course, I'm talking about people who actually appreciate the gifts and then use them later to get really good pets/dreamies. People who trade gifted rares for a handful of random (non-dreamie/ultra-wanted) uncommons or something like that are a completely different matter.)

Sunjewels. |D I have to admit though, I'm not a huge sunjewel fan. =/ I mean they're really good looking, and do awesome with any light-related items, but I dunno… they just don't do it for me like the blue toxic does. <3 xD

Yeah,I've established that sometimes it's good to trade away gifts so they can maybe get something that'll make them even happier..
