Trade Rant Thread [V.31]

[beemo]

Someone sent me a fair/semi-overpay trade for my Raven Dog.
I felt bad cancelling on them and I told them why, apologized, said what I had to pay and what my boyfriend had to pay and explained that demand can be a nasty thing.
They agreed, they seemed bitter but happy that I had apologized and explained myself.
I found this user is auctioning a Shima Longtail off and feeding demand so much they won't auto accept a Grinner..

Now I just feel kind of silly for feeling bad for someone like that.

{Staph. Just...no. This Tribal Gearback be creeping me out...Just..let me trade you away for a pet that's better on the eyes...no disrespect for Tribal Lovers.}

My hoard pets are a lot harder to trade for than I'd thought they would be.

If you send a trade my way and completely obliterate my trade rules, I will take a glance at your trade rules because 9/10 chances are you will have it written "read my rules or I'll cancel" so it really baffles me that these people expect others do give them this courtesy, but don't feel like they should do it for anyone else. It's just rude.

It's just bad trading. Then you just know when you cancel, you can feel which users are going to send a pm. I hate that too. I never send PMs if I get angry over a cancel. Just let it go, it's not personal.

I sent this trade with the message "Hello, is this alright? (:"
Cancel message "no"
Well sorry then for trying to make a fair trade. I think I'd rather have it canceled without a message or with a "no thanks" or "sorry" because "no" just seemed kinda rude to me. Is it really too much to ask for a fair trade?

So I sent out a trade almost a month ago and it was just now cancelled stating that they were clearing their trades.... boy do i feel ignored. /: so not a good day for me.

Can someone tell when people started trading around a Balloon Dog for a Red Cerb.? Because someone who shall not be named is telling me it's a fair trade and that's as low as people will pay for them ...

[monty]

Well. I've done it. I've completely shifted my focus to collecting Gearback Tribals.
This is going to be /so/ fun trading up fodder for them. //not.//

Zazaza... every trade i send out get ignored, or cancelled. Unless it's a gift. Than thats like auto accept, of course. I want to start trading up and such for a vixen /minor dreamie/ but i can't get any good trades to even start -.- and i onoy have two tradable list pets.... *sigh* I'm horrible with list trading to, and i still want list left over if i ever get a Vixen so i wont have to start all over again. But that grey boarder collie.... but the vixen.... but... which one should i try /).(\

So I sent this user a trade yesterday and they haven't replied. No big deal, I guess? Except that they've been online bumping their trade thread several times today. Then I found out that the trade I sent them is unfair to me by a good amount--now what? Do I look like a greedy jerk by cancelling and telling them what I found out? Cancel without a message and look like an impatient, petulant child? Let it sit and hope they edit (I sent it as a suggestion)? I have no idea what to do. (I'm not looking for actual answers, just venting my frustration at myself via rhetorical questions.)

Unrelated: I've come to realize that actually, tons of people would love to trade for my c$--but not with their low advent list pets, which are the only things I want right now. Also, tons of people want my red toxic--but not a single one of them can afford it.
