Why is it impossible to get a successful trade for that dog/ ;n;
The only difference in age was 9 days...

I love sending fair trades and having them canceled with "I am only accepting overpay." Good job, you have admitted to being greedy.

Found this pretty thing from a while back:

Their message?

I wish somebody would gift me I have never been gifted I bet it would be nice.

-.-

That's begging.
Not to mention, the dog is in my "Gifts" group, which also has the words "I rarely trade these away" in the group name, as well.

Usually, that would mean that I'd either have to get offered a pet I quite like, or slight overpay.

And that, my friend, is not even close to a gift.
Or someone asking for a gift.

And seriously, did they have to choose a 2008 pet?
Really?

(The dog wasn't even on their wishlist. )

~~~

Ooh, then they sent another one!

With the message:

I am sorry I wasn't trying to beg (sighs) I would be nice.

(Since I cancelled the previous "trade" with the message that begging was against the rules.)

Oh, and by the way, pal.
That's pretty much begging right there.
You're just not saying "please please please."

But implying that you are doesn't really make a difference.

If you already have that store pet, then WHY is it on your Wishlist?!

They only joined this year so i cancelled telling them how the dates/rarity were off.

[tenlittlesoldierboys]

What. Is. Wrong. Today.
I know that Gryphon-set from the store is worth about a rare, because it costs 17C$, but I only need the wings q.q

'Unfair to me by 2 years'

No. No. No.

The latest store pets are worth 2010 rares. The pet on your side is a 2012 very rare. Please stop overvaluing your pets.

[dozy]

Just because I am willing to look at suggestions, there is no need to shove my sorbet on my side, nothing on yours and tell me to look when your groups are just filled with an array of commons, and, if I'm lucky, one 09 rare.

I've taken to just sending back the suggestions saying 'Where are your list pets?'
If they have list pets, I don't have to go rooting around in groups full of pets for them, so it's a bonus.
If not, then they either will cancel themselves or I'll get a suggestion back saying 'I have none,' proving that the person was sending the suggestion with the blind hope that I'd just shove some rares or uncommons on their side and be like 'yeah, take it!'

Sighs.

Well...
I offered some overpay and the canceled. They had THREE! I guess you have to offer a list pet or there is no chance your getting one -.-
