Trade Rant Thread [V.31]

[Umalia]

Gotta love coming back to somebody begging for a free store pet. Just no. I did a lot of art to afford that one useless store pet.

[~Graceful Fox~]

I get my first target dog, and I was happy about it, But now i'm getting and urge to get another one, and another one after that >_> This is going to be fun since the target dog is high on the hoard market -.- and no one wants to trade them

[kawaii★]

{Yes...It's official. My Tribal Gear back has cursed me! I mean, i some what understand how people like these but..I personally don't. I haven't gotten a single list pet offer for this pet yet. And they are suppose to be high on the mainlist pt2....I is sad. I just want balloons dogs. Or non balloon...or BMA..or BA....oomg i want to many things. }

You can't be serious =_=
I am NOT going to trade away an '08 Very Rare for a measly 10C$
That's not even enough for the most recent store pet, never mind this.
This is just ridiculous.

*tosses a table* dang i dont think im getting my raven back anytime soon....

[radiantly]

i can't understand this persons rules. The colors are way too bright and there is too much writing. Their spelling is also atrocious.

[Equid Phantasm]

Time for me to rant, I rarely do, but this person really has been quite dumb the last 2 days. I mean come on, really??? I just have a hard time believing that the person just doesn't get trading and gifter generosity at all!!! Timeline:

Day one. I get a trade offer. Here it is:

Ok, not fair to them, right, offering me so many backgrounds and items for just 1 2013 pet. (Even though they were all free to them and nothing on my wishlist). Knowing it was unfair to them, I let them know as much in the trade message.

I am a very generous newbie gifter and thought I'd give them some pets. I do that quite often when I get a newbie trader, I just add in pets to my side. I edit it back to them since they were new in December of 2013. I advised them they were extremely overpaying for the dog they wanted, and offered to trade for just the plush (1 plush for 1 pet) and offered 5 free pets to them (I had the plush I might add, they didn't offer anything from my wishlist although they do have some pets from it.)

My edited offer to them was generous with 6 pets, one of which was a 2010 uncommon cat:

Here's where it gets really good. Instead of accepting, they edited back and here's their ridiculous counter-offer asking for rares and uncommons from 2009 to present in exchange for... drum roll... a free from the store sheep costume. Yes, I'm telling the truth, they offered a sheep costume (FREE to all) and the originally offered plush for 09 rare, 2 - 10 uncommons, and 3 2013 pets... they even removed the original pet they wanted:

Ok. I wrote it off to newbieness on their part, and explained that it was a very unfair trade, that they were asking entirely too much for free items and that they needed to not try to take advantage of another player's generosity or edit free pets. I still felt they were just newbies and wanted them to have the freebies, so here's my new edited offer to them, again giving them some nice pets including 2010 cat from the above trade and another 2010 uncommon rabbit on their wishlist. I explained IN THE TRADE MESSAGE that again, they should not be taking advantage but I'd give them the pets anyhow:

They finally accepted the trade and my generous 6 pets for 1 free plush... BUT!!! IT WASN'T GOOD ENOUGH FOR THEM!!!Today, they came back with this and so now I have to foe them. They asked for the same rares and uncommons from 09, 10 and on up to present as they did before. Their offer was for 2 unknown bws and 2 plushies:

Granted, I might have traded fairly for the mad scientist butterfly wolves, however since the person just isn't getting it after having explained over and over that they are asking unfairly, I am giving up trying.

Also, for unknown reasons, they are a regular registered user (Not coppa) and can not send trade messages. IDK how that works but it still makes me upset that I guess they thought I wouldn't notice that they tried again for the same pets. Or maybe they have a mental disability or something. Whatever it amounts to, I'm done with it and so is this rant on the trade rant thread!!!

So disappointed in my newb senses and having a pet from the Septembers list for the first time...
Me thinking that all Cake dogs were all on the same list.
Then when I'm on the Auction thread and read that the Cake dog was on the Advent list...
-Disappointment is all I feel-
-The person also has many list pets so they knew what they were doing! Ughhhh
And the darn cake dog was going to be used to swap for a white dragon and get users dreams in bulk....
Time to start from the advent list again TT-TT
Edit: I even request a trade back from the user, hasn't even responded....
-Good thing I requested a Trade Reversal.
I think I may continue this rant in a moment.... I just need to calm down.. They're just pixels..
And pixels you worked hard in trading to get them....
Ugghhhh, I feel like I'm getting to worked up by a trade but still!!!
-They even ignored my PM....
-And my Trade back...
-I bet they knew what they did, and to afraid to admit it.
-CS USERS CAN YOU NOT BE GREEDY AND LET EVERYONE HAVE A CHANCE!

[ExDream]

You couldn't wait until i get online? I'm almost giving up on getting this PPS dragon.

Seriously, this is ridiculous. I'm about to just lock all trades and forget about this pet. So mad right now.

[monty]

Apparently when I out my list pets in a group labelled "Quality trade ups only" that doesn't mean anything.
