Trade Rant Thread [NEW]

[Demyx and the Doctor]

So...as you can see in my sig, I'm auctioning off a Purple Toxic. This afternoon, I got a pretty nice offer that included a Red Toxic. At first I was "awesome, that's not a bad bid at all", but then I went "wait, why does the Red Toxic's name include the letters UFA?" As I expected, the trade offer was soon auto-canceled by a trade-away, and as I expected, it was the Red Toxic that had changed owner. -_-

I put to you this question - if you are auctioning off a pet, why on God's green Earth would you offer that same pet as a bid in another auction? Since his auction ended first and the Red Toxic has been traded away, he no longer has a valid bid in my auction, and there's no way he could win without that particular pet right now. If he hadn't traded it away yet, and he won my auction and gave me the Red Toxic, he would have screwed over everyone who bid in his auction because he'd already given it away. I mean, really now.

Step one: Someone sends me an epicly bad trade.

Step two: I edit the trade to something that's still an overpay by a good solid 9 months.

Step three: They accept with a very rude message. Something along the lines of "Fine whatever. This isn't what I wanted but whatever"

>.> Makes me mad every time.
There such really be a rule that when people accept a trade very rudely that you can get that trade reversed ... becuase I regret it EVERY time and apparently never learn from it XD

Extremely confusing trade.

Why is this 3rd gen rat so hard to trade for e.o If only I had patience, then I could just wait for all the new release hype to die down.

Happened to me like 3 times. What is with people and their vulgar manner?


I once sent an '08 advent as a gift to someone. They accepted, but with the most offensive message I've ever seen. It was something along the lines of,

Oh...Um... thanks. Sorry but it just gets to me that you could afford to send me an advent because you have tons of them but you don't have the decency to send me a rares list pet because you have tons? Thanks for being selfish.

Excuse me? Selfish? And I just sent you a 2008 Very Rare. They might have been one of those spoiled users who gets gifted RL pets on a daily basis, but I couldn't care less. I don't have the 'decency' to look into their popularity.

Some people need to have bad things happen to them more often. This sounds like one of those people who would probably say IRL "Gee, thanks for the car...sorry, but it just gets to me that all you could afford to buy me is a two-year-old car when you're driving a brand-new one". I'd be thrilled to get an '08 VR in a halfway reasonable trade, let alone for free.

That's why I only gift those who I know have a good attitude
