Trade Rant Thread

[~Kaya]

Ooh >.<', would that be me? >.<' Sorry about that Sachi if it is :3... I just love the Sunback design too much I've decided to try 'hoarding' them =x... I'll help you look around and get one if you'd like though :3

And about the whole code words deal, I agree with what was said earlier. You can basically tell if a person has read your rules, or has a relatively okay sense of rarities and similar things like that. I don't know why you need a codeword. It's a hassle and if someone accidentally misreads or misses it or just forgets to type it, the whole trade could go down the trade. Is that really worth it? =/

Yeah, I'm not that made though. xD [Got to love the design.] If you'd be ok with helping you may. ^^

My Rant: Sent someone a Pm about theri Target dog in their trades group asking if they would trade for a red grinner. They were online,they read the message, failed to let me no if they were ok with it or not. >:c

1. I'm pretty sure the group name says "ONLY FOR TRADE FOR GOOD OFFERS" or something like that.
2. My trade rules aren't that long, and they definitely say I'm only trading for hoards, C$, and my dreampets.

To make it less annoying, I'm just gonna assume this person is illiterate and move on with my life.

A member along with me at an organization said they had a CE Galaxy for someone who wouldn't trade it. I regretfully traded mine, so I figured try to trade with them for it. We work something out, and right then when they said it was ok, they had to throw in a little message about our coontail hoard and how we should just stop at 10 and not get 20 like we want to. Yeah, your dreampet is the coontail, we get it. You post it all the time. You also complain about how you're never going to win against us in an auction for one. Like a friend of ours said, it's not like there is only 20 coontails on the site. You just have to look alot like we do, and find the right person to trade with. And that message where they told us we were "greedy" was the point to where I just cancelled the trade for the CE Galaxy. I don't care that I want it, I just...didn't want to trade with them. xc They make me feel guilty.

I just got a trade with 3 BW newborns from this month for the 3 store dogs.

Good thing I wasn't drinking anything when I opened it. It would have snorted out my nose! LOL

I agree so much on the code words.

I do really wonder how those people feel when you over offer, or offer a dream pet, and follow all the rules but the code word when they cancel.

I know a few that don't, (they just snark in the accept that I should have code worded but they'll let it slide)
of course they will... when it's in their favor

I've run into a few e that do (one that baffled me was "I really love this trade, it has a dream dog but you didn't use my codeword so I'm canceling")
Really? you're going to admit my trade was something you REALLY wanted to accept, but you won't because I missed a codeword? Kudo's I guess for sticking by their rules, but ... just seems surreal they'd admit It was an offer they wanted and that I followed all the rules, but because of a lack of a word swapped around 30 times in the rules they're going to pass? Oy

I've taken to 99% of the time not doing the codeword song and dance, if their rules are harsh (I'll foe you, and list you publicly !!111oneone) or it changes more then once, I just pass over it. Sure it probably makes them mad, but it makes *me* mad that they have
X word
No Y word
Put Z if you want to be foed
just kidding it's U
If you made it to here it's really Y
Now put "I rule" and Rules #5's word

...
I want to trade, not play a word find game/mystery game.

I'm done being nice. From now on, stupid trades just get cancelled outright.

i know exactly who your talking about. and they are starting to annoy me so much. its not directed at me, but its just so un needed that they say it over and over to you and post it all the time. its like my dream pet was their balloon dogs and they kept beating me in auctions and trades and every five seconds i complain about it. if i ever get a coontail, its NOT going to them no matter what they pay me. thats how much they are annoying me
