I sent someone a trade when I saw the malk spider newborns in their trade box, asking what they'd like in exchange..





The person's about 5 months old, and seems to be regular, but even then I'd oversee it as a rookie mistake and cancel/edit politely. The thing that irked me off was that in their trade rules it said something along the lines of:

"don't screw with me I have a friend who's been on chickensmoothie for ages and they check every trade I get"


:evil: Really? I think I know who that friend is and there's no doubt they were trying to scam me

Sooo... it's happened a few days ago, I didn't really wanted to post here right after it happened, because it annoyed me too much.

I'm pretty good with rarities, but when a trade involves many pets sometimes I'm still unsure, that's why I posted in the 'is this a fair trade?'-thread.
The first user said it's quite unfair, not why, just that it is. It doesn't really help me if I don't know why, so I asked again.

Meanwhile, other users posted saying that it's not true maybe slightly unfair, but not more.

And then I saw a trade.
From the first user.
http://www.chickensmoothie.com/trades/v ... i-1KiPzeEg
My July PPS has an obvious name, "For UR Cat", and the dog s/he offered was one I'd have gotten with the other trade.

I cancelled, saying exactly that.

Well, I accepted the other trade and the pets were sitting for just a minute in 'pets without a group', when I got this trade from the same user:
http://www.chickensmoothie.com/trades/v ... JKpzVHoXdA
Message was something like 'add please'.

So... I got this BMD, own it just a minute, it isn't even in my trade group and then ... that?
I've got trade groups for a reason, they're not just something nice that you can look at. -_-

When I edited the last trade to something more fair (Nov '10 common Malk cat from her/his wishlist for the horse), the user didn't accept the trade... ;3

this morning I was sent a trade for my nonjewel which basically consisted of about 20 chinese new year dogs
I sent back the bid explaining that the nonjewel is in an auction but if they wanted to send abid to feel free - I also explained that I would not accept the hoard pets for it. (by their message it seemed they thought I was trading VR for hoards - I gave the benefit of the doubt and let it pass that they had somehow mistakenme for someone else)

they sent back a bid with a couple of 08 VRs so I asked on the fair trade thread. They just cancelled with this message -

"well done now you lost my bid! I saw your post and you are trying to scam me - you dont need to check fair trade I sent a fair trade. I will foe and report you if you ever deal with me again"

WHAT?

Im tempted to PM to give a piece of my mind :evil:

S/he joined in 2010, has been here for quite a while, so not exactly new.

It did, that's why I didn't post here until now >__> I was too angry when it happened.

@avyron
Oh my... >_>; When that happens I always send a PM, that's just plain rude.

Someone wrote: Hi there! I think you hate this trade,but my pet is from 08 and your pets is from 09 and 10 so...this is fair for me!Please fell free to edit! ^^' ) OBS!No unfair trades x' D

Argh
Y'see, I used to get scammed when I was a newbie.
My reply, as a suggestion:
I agree ; no unfair trades!I know i'm a noob here, and people here are always sending me unfair trades! you make a lot of sense. Trade accepted.
Someonw wrote: YEah! I have a lot of sense!So,did you mean this trade is accepted? xD


My reply:

No.
