Asks someone to let me know what they want for their Stary Calf.
Offers a mid '09 rare
Gets told 'Err... Nty'

Oh I'm sorry was that not overpay enough? Sorry for asking what you wanted for it.

[Takk]

That moment when you or someone else sends a one sided trade on accident instead of a suggestion. I always feel my inner evil say 'accept, accept!
But I never do, that would be mean and probably reportable

bahahahaha, I don't mean to sound rude but I really did laugh.
This trade honestly made me smile, it was cute in a kind of "I don' know what that pet is worth" way.
Oh CS you make me smile.

Wow... Looking at users paying MAINLIST pets for the August PPS....


I mean sure, I also overplayed for mine with a couple advents but it's not like I paid an arm and a leg for mine. The demand and greed circulating these pets is CRAZY!!

[Kex.]

I wish people would stop encouraging demand so much.
I get that a lot of people care about it and it's not that horrible if you realize your limits.
It's nice to get overpay for a pet, but if someone offers let's say a '10 rare for a pet from this event, don't go around asking people "Can I get more for this?" you're just being incredibly rude and greedy. You're already getting a lot, stop trying to feed yourself more.

Maybe I'm just overreacting but I'm really tired of seeing people ask for more than their pet is worth.
Though I don't think they're the major problem. I think the major problem is people saying that it's okay.
I don't know if it's just me but lately, all I see on the FTT is just people encouraging demand.
"This is unfair to the other person, but it has high demand. You could probably get more."
No. Stop. It's not helping anyone. And new users that see this kind of advice think that demand is the most important thing in trading when it's really the least important.

Omg the demand for this pet is insane!
I nearly had this offer rejected even though its a really big overpay. And another one, where I offered 2 2009 rares for the same 2 event pets got cancelled with a "i already had better offers" OMG WHAT?

[Vaal Hazak]

I'm sure this trade will be canceled by 95%.
The more the event goes on, the more the people try to force me to pay half of my tokens for one pet.
I just want my missing pets, but not with giving my life.

It's always the same. I'm missing the most-in-demand pets, and just because I'm realistic and earnestly - I'll never pay a '10 rare for any even pet of this event! - I won't get them.
Just because I'm not like the others and throw desperately out my last rares I have for these pets.

I love it.

[Illuminated Dreams]

I am so sick and tired of folks ignoring years. I'm trying so hard to catch up on the pets I missed from the past year and a half, but all of my trade fodder is much older. So the minute I start trying to trade for newer rares with much older uncommons people are automatically like, "That's so unfair, uncommon does not equal rare!!!!1!!!111!" These are the same people who would offer a 2014 rare for a 2008 rare or even a list pet and see no problem with it.

Dude, even if you only have 15 C$ doesn't mean this is fair.

[Vaal Hazak]

The moment when you face that you don't even own a 2013 rare!
Ugh, I should take care of my trade groups before I write down anything - anywhere >.<

Now I need to find out what I should do now xD
