Found a UR Lion for auction.
They want a UR Tiger or fair overpay which is cool I suppose.

I go to my their Wish List, nothing of high value that I've got extras of.

Story of my life lately. :|

When people want to jump tiers 2+ above their above the gap pet and they offer no overpay.

I know most auctions want above decent overpay, but this rarely works, especially with low demand pets. You're after the second highest moon dog... you won't get it without overpay (believe me, I have the highest moon dog and that wasn't easy).
I stopped caring about this being perfect on mobile so enjoy!

about offers) or anything about my locked

I myself don't understand the demand, there are much prettier/cuter pets with wings imo. Possibly just the VR tag.
Let's be honest here, though. In auctions, everything goes for more. If you'd simply look for a trader, I'm sure you'd get the PPS for much less than a mid-september. Most people would accept an advent list.

Bloody auctions making everything's demand skyrocket higher.

Gawd, I thought non-coons had, not good, but kinda reasonable demand, but no, apparently not.
Ngl, I'm a picky kinda person, but because of this I listed pretty much every pet I'd accept off the rares list, and there are a lot of pets in that list
Still nothing

Lornsome night,
babbits bawlin',
wind bitin' the bone.
Wind like this,
full of voices.
Ancestry howlin' at you;
Now, find you devil,
Old Georgie himself.
Now you hear up close
and I'll yarn you about
the first time we met
eye to eye.
'you bring the stories'.
All their voices
tied up into one.
One voice different,
one voice whispering
out there,
spying from the dark.

Well to be honest you're right - it's just people doing what you're doing right now that makes it go on. If people quit paying that eventually the owners would have to set their standards lower but for some reason it just won't happen.
Have a good day y'all.

Competitiveness. People see other people bid higher, they want to bid higher. They do want the pet after all, and they CAN bid higher. It just goes on and on, and people can't resist the urge to be the highest. Nobody ever goes " it's alright, I can look for that pet elsewhere." Auctions have the pet people want dangling right in front of their face. It's easier to just bid than to bother looking for fairer trades.

I've tried a long time to trade regularly for the lion. Traders are aware of demand and refuse even vast overpay. If any of you know of someone who is willing to trade one fairly, please point them my way.

In the meantime, lets all try to be polite to one another and enjoy the site despite any short comings we see in it or its users. Let he who hasn't done wrong cat the first stone, and all that. :)
