Trade Rant Thread

[qhost]

Ugh x.x The other day someone bidded on my Green grinner auction, and it was such a good offer I practically accepted it right away. I sent them a PM, saying they'd won and that they could send a trade... They ignored the message and didn't send a trade; I even waited for a few days. So eventually I ended up sending the trade myself, including the exact pets they'd offered. So I get on today and they've cancelled without a message They haven't PMed me or posted on the thread or anything. I don't get it... why offer if you don't want to trade it anyway? -.-

So sorry Aura -snugs and gives cookies-

I got a trade yesterday:
They offered: A black maned advent card lion, and two store-bought bracelets
They wanted: My UR cat, and a cerberus

I cancel with no reply
They PM me saying, "i cant beleive that you declined my offor. my lion and bracelets are worth WAY more than ur cat and cerberous. whatever" Then they blocked me from sending PMs.
*Irritation*

Wow Shy, that was really weird. How is a bracelet worth more than a UR cat?
@ Kiara, That sucks, people can be really weird sometimes.

Yeah, similar things have happened before too O.O

@ Shy - oh but the bracelets are so rare! Rarer than the zebras! OMG how could you reject that once-in-a-lifetime offer?

I think that can be safely dubbed a teaser trade. Or they have really bad memory. Like, Dory-style. :< Yeah, Finding Nemo reference. .3.

I think they are either:
a) Hiding from their fail
b) Horribly misinformed
c) Trying to trick you into somehow crawling back. (Though I think blocked PM=Foe's, so iunno there. Maybe A or B.)
Or d) A combonation of A, B, possibly C and a dash of crazy.

@ Khemo - that entire post made me laugh XD

[Olivetti Spaghetti]

I'm so sorry, Aura, I hope you get another one.

[Minimanta]

Ahaha XD Epic fail!

So I just got a trade suggestion asking me to take some pets for what they wanted.

Here's what they wanted:
Pink splotch September, target dog, orange heavy striped October, Halloween 08 cake dog, white snowflake 08 advent, advent rat, skelly bunny, spider fish, adult grey halloween 09 pony, UR purple horse, a complete tiger set and a complete lion set (except the mane. I don't have a mane).

I edited and see they have the dark leopard that I miss and a bunch of advent plushies that I seek. So I add that to the trade and remove everything on my side but the tiger set, halloween cake dog and october dog.
I send the trade as a suggestion, asking them to pick one of the dogs for the leopard and that I would trade the tiger set for the plushies.

I get the trade back like this:
My side: Tiger set, cake dog and october dog
Their side: Two rocking zebras

Their message: Here you can take this

I couldn't stop laughing XD Canceled with this message:
XD Do you really think that two rocking zebras are worth this? Forget it.

EPIC fail...
