Trade Rant Thread [V.31]

[d e s r a]

If demand was a person, I would throttle them.

Seriously, why can't we just trade by rarity and List pets? Demand is making my head hurt and people are basically making demand up for their pets. I offer some major overpay for a 2009 rare Warrior cat and it gets cancelled because,
"Warriors are higher in demand than Malk pets".
So what? I really hate demand. Demand is the reason that a Valentines Day PPS Lion is getting auctioned for 2010 rares -.-

When you want a pet that isn't rare or have any command, but the person you're trading doesn't want to give it up for a fair price just because you want it.

I cannot understand which problem people have with small quantity trades.
I can't figure it out.
Sent this out to get hoard pets.
Kinda fair by the fact that all of the unknown will be probably common.
But no, they have seen that I want many pets and then they though "Yuck, this is unfair to me ..."
Gawd, learn out rarities before yelling at me >.<

So get out the dramatic music, because I'm about to break out a whole WEEK'S worth of bad trades on y'all.

One
Two: "This butterfly wolf is on your wishlist so please don't tell me it is an unfair trade."
Three
Four: "Would this be fair? I think it is :3
Thanks! I really really adore those pets!!! please? :{
If you don't want to trade your cat you can just edit and just give the 2 dogs. Or the omg so rare one but I'll have to erase 1 of my pets too."
Five
Six
Seven: "you have a lot of these so can I? ^-^"
Eight
Nine
Ten
Eleven
Twelve
Thirteen
Fourteen: "how about this"
Fifteen
Sixteen {Same person as above, but a different trade}
Seventeen
Eighteen
Nineteen
Twenty
Twenty one
Twenty two
Twenty three
Twenty four
Twenty five
Twenty six
Twenty seven
Twenty eight: "I'm sure you will like to edit but I would like the 3 cats with the long tails those are my Dreamies the three cats at the top"
Twenty nine
Thirty!!! {Same trade, sent twice, at two different times.}


Honorable mentions: A trader asking me to swap for a pet I already had that they claimed I didn't.
The NUMEROUS traders offering to trade me items I already had.
The Many traders asking/just straight up offering C$ for my list pets when my trade rules clearly state; no.
The NUMEROUS traders using hoard pets {The butterfly wolves from January} To get past my wishlist lock even though I specifically say in my trade rules, not to do that.
The user who-shall-not-be-named who begged and offered the same thing, no lie, I counted; six times for two of my very rare PPS's, using hoard pets to get around my wishlist lock, and sending me very sad and whiny messages when i declined.

What a week.
Successful trades: 12 out of 175-ish.

I hate people who think this is funny.

Along with the newbies thinking this is fair.

Oh...
The message? "Trade I have the yellow one"
First of all, it's in a group marked "Auctions"
Second...
Is this even close to fair?

In my August PPS lion giveaway:

Why do you want this pet? "I will trade it for some good pets because of it's outrageous demand :P"

Um, yeah, that'll make me want to give it to you. I'm trying to kill its stupid demand- not encourage it.
>.<

I LITERALLY threw up in my mouth a bit when I saw this...

Their message:

HA...HAHAHAHA...This is why I don't trade anymore.

[d-rain.]

I would love to accept this trade!
