Trade Rant Thread [v. 16] *new rule*

[Russetshadow]

Someone offered me a 2010 rare rat for all of my munchkins, it's massive overpay on their side but I'm hoarding munchkins and don't want to start all over. >.<

Rant:

Found this little jewel at the back of my canceled trades:

That is just... ?!
That is probably the worst trade I've seen so far...

I have seen much worse

My eyes burn, they burn!

I will never understand the importance of sending a message in a trade request.
I mean, sure it's the nicer thing to do so you don't leave your partner hanging, but we're all saying the same thing.
"Would you like to trade," "How would this work," "Is this okay with you," blah blah is all self explanatory.
So why should I send you a message?
Sorry if this sounds bad, but I'm really not on here to have a conversation.
Message or not, just look at my trade gosh darn it.

I agree, but ask people if they want to trade, anyway. "Would you care to trade? Thank you for your time." Is my standard trade message. I don't even have to think about it anymore. I just write it down, elaborate if I feel it's necessary, and send.

I think it's funny when someone sends a trade, you cancel telling the person you won't overpay, then they're suddenly willing to be fair or even generous...

It seems people don't like to read my trade rules...
Are they that bad...?

Personally I think your rules are reasonable, nobody reads my "guidelines" either.

Rant- bottom tier advent list pets why are you so hard to get???

I really wish I could trade up this Pink Mini Husky really fast and before September 13th so I can gift that pet to someone awesome for their birthday. But of course, CS isn't going to be on my side and all. Dx

^Also ready to accept without message...

Personally I would of accepted :3 BA's are going for sorbets right?

Sorberts and Toxics, yes.
DaDwarf said they managed to get a Line Tribal out of a BA before too. XD

I got a CEG and BEG for two of my BAs. :3

Still, all this is still massive overpay rarity-wise for a BA. XD

I'm cool with people not sending messages unless its a suggestion.

I've been trying to get that husky (i'm helping a friend out) but I can't even get on the bottom tier of the advent list. *bangs head on desk*

No no this is not okay

Sent with the message "Is this okay a uncommon for a uncommon "

[rainbow.]

I just came back from a mini-vacation and saw that the August lion went VR. That mixed with the demand pretty much means even if i trade my 2009 Tess dragon, I still would get a message like 'this is unfair' with a cancel. Greeeaaaaattttt.
