Trade Rant Thread [V.31]

[:: Juniper Pearl ::]

Im not sure what they were thinking

[Sunshine1515]

They sent a blank trade with the PPS on their side, asking if I wanted to trade. I sent back the trade below:

I know the Cucumber doesn't have fantastic demand, but it is overpay. They cancel saying:
"fruit doesnt have good demand an my pps is above it"

1) The list takes account demand
2) The Cucumber is above the July PPS -.-

Cucumbers are more work to get rid of than it was getting, I'm beginning to regret my decision of trading for it.

*posts on FTT about a rares list trade involving only pets*
*instantly receives trades from two different people asking for my c$*
*double-checks own trade rules*
Yup, pretty sure that's standard English for "c$ for rares list only." Why is it so hard for people to read four simple rules? Guess I need to lock up my c$ again.

if you send sob stories in your messages all you're going to end up doing is making people sad.
"Hi there, is this alright? I really love this lion and I am hoping to get higher on the list. I understand if not, but I would love to work out a deal as all I have gotten are declines lately, and I am really depressed about it. I am unsuccessfully looking for a good deal....
Oh sorry about my rant. #so#upset xD
Well I hope you have a great day! Thanks for you r time and sorry to bother you! <3"
I have hopes for the UR chicken. I say so in my signature....and in my trade thread. The person may not have come from either of those, but over half the tings they sent weren't even WL. ESP none of the brunt of the trade. what am I going to do with a bunch of 09 rares and a tess horse thats hard to trade off?

and whats the deal with cancel messages?! "oh man my trade got canceled with out a message!" and "this person just canceled with a no thank you What did I do wrong?!" sending in a fair/overpay trade does NOT make a person required to accept!! I'm sorry if all you are getting is cancels. you know what? I am too. it's what happens. someone prefers their pet toy yours. it in a trade group? maybe they think they can get better. maybe the pets in another trade. MAYBE they have another idea for the pet in mind. you don't know what is going through a persons mind so you can't judge them by what they do and do not accept.

rrrr. my feelings have been riled. :T sorry for the wordy wall.

Why did I sleep-in today! Been looking for that Lion for ages, and I absolutely adore the raven dog

"Hi, is this okay? Thanks! I really want to get higher on the list, and all I have gotten are cancels. And accept would really brighten my day! c:"

We'd all like to get higher on the list -.- I know the Cucumber doesn't have great demand, but I do say in my rules, "list pets for list pets"

meaning I just want list pets, not extra rares with it. I mean, the cucumber doesn't deserve a 7 line trade down

So I got that trade.... first off... they're not COPPA'd and in my rules it says to leave a message....(which they didn't) it also says to not trade me spiders...(since I have a huge fear of them... I'm okay with these but they still creep me out) also the trade was just downright unfair... the black wig IS a store item...

Ouch, another unfair offer for this guy. I just cant seem to trade down these main list dogs fairly at all
