Trade Rant Thread [NEW RULE]

[Leopardy]

Got this a few moments ago. No message. Ready to accept.
A nice try though ^-^

[Fork]

Rant:
I'm just trying to get some glasses. Everywhere I go. No glasses, but everything else from that free hobby set is there. WHY IS IT SO HARD TO GET GLASSES?!
*explodes*

The glasses are really popular; a lot of people collect them, myself included. However, I think I have enough extras that I can spare one for you. C:

Really?
I only need 5 because I'm making myself as 5 CS pets and I wear glasses.
I feel alone, I'm the only on in my school who has blue bangs and glasses.

Where do you put rants for bids that people are making into trades?!

Cucumbers for auction.
But people expect me to trade it?
I know these are trades because of what is contained.
Message: Either lion or cucumber.....

Cancelled: Um....
Lions not for trade and the cucumber is only for auction.
Cancelling this.

Then they sent it for the cucumber, ut thats a rant for the auction thread, since its only for auction

Then another person.
Message: I know you said that you didnt wan rats but these were on your wishlist. I can also offer 500 C$ to this offer.

Now, obviously they did see the cuke was for auction...But I see this as a trade, since they added my lion to my side as well -.-

Cancelled: No rats means no rats
Why did you add my lion to my side? :l
Cancelling because you didnt follow rules

Sorry if this doesnt belong. These two were trades, not bids from my point of view, so I put them here

Light rant:

When people have a group offer for a UR or some other main rares list pet, and the rarest pet in their group is an '09 rare or something. Even better, a recent store pet. I'm always like "LOL you expect to get a UR/Dogtag/Sunjewel/WHATEVER with THAT!?"

I guess it doesn't really bother me much (it's not like I have any pets rarer than a BMD myself XD), it's just that I think some people really need to learn their rarities.

yes, once again, I want malk smilies. NO I WILL NOT PAY MY TOXIC PUP FOR 2!!

also, rant at people in general who accept a gift without a message. I mean, come on, you've just received a gift... least you could do is to politely acknowledge it.. SURELY?!?

*sighs* :c x

So I was hunting for hoard pets and sent this trade, which with the dog alone is an
overpay plus I added the rat.
Of course they had to edit it.
Because if someone offers an overpay you don't accept it & say thank you, you just
go ahead and try to milk them for all they're worth. The message

would this be okay?

really annoyed me additionally. No, of course this isn't okay. Rats are in low demand, while
that Butterflywolf is being hoarded by everyone. If they had taken the dog off my side then
I probably would've accepted it, but that's just plain rude.

I second that no message thing. Sometimes I wonder if they even look at the trade, or just click accept just because. Even a little smiley face would do, that's all.

On another note, it really irks me you politely cancel a trade, explain why, and then that person sends pretty much the exact same thing back. Particularly if it's for the same pet. o.o I know you can read, and it's only a few sentences. Would it hurt to actually consider my advice? I'm just trying to make it easier for both of us. =')

[ariadne]

Now the same person from the above rant first
re-send it with my first overpay-offer. I cancelled,
telling them I'll look for someone less rude to get my hoard
pets from. So now they just wanted to give it to me for free,
because apparently they never even wanted to own it.
Grrr. I cancelled. I'm not taking gifts from you, missy.

That doesn't look so terrible to me. Couldn't the 3-month rule have almost applied in that situation?

Trades like this annoy me. -.-; Yes, I said I might overpay slightly for the train sets, but 4 pieces are worth a '10 Uncommon in my eyes! That means that only 6 pieces are not worth an '08! -.-;
