Trade Rant Thread [V.31]

[PanicLouise]

I don't rant often, because I try to be as kind as possible on here but man, I could just smash my face into a wall right now.


2009 user asked for an early '09 rare of mine, offering a few uncommons. I edited, saw they had many pets that would have made a fair offer. So, I edit and add one late '09 pet to their side. I see it is under their favorites so I offer a fair bit of overpay. They remove my overpay and send it back, I try again, and they send it back yet again. This time though, they threaten to cancel if I can't do "any better".

Funny thing is, the first thing in their rules is something along the lines of "if I am anything, it's a fair trader!". Sorry, I didn't start the trade, you wanted my pet and I just tried to make it fair and be kind because I asked for a favorite. Demanding even more overpay than I already offered isn't a very good example of what a fair trader you are.

*goes to trade with person*
*sees glittery blingee mess*
*quietly presses backspace*

no only for the fact what I want I cant afford to pay you for even with this one

And I can't even understand this cancel message ??
Ugh. I still need at least 60 of those dogs.
Stop hiding, cuties.

Also: people canceling my trades because they think I'm going to
delete those dogs. No, I`m not. Trust me, I'm just as unhappy as you
that this hoard coincides with the pet they're collecting for that rarity experiment.

Also: (yes, I`m doing a lot of trading and ... ugh) there's no point in even putting a
'most wanted' behind your dreamies if you're just gonna put that for each pet

User sends me suggestion offering a Green Toxic + Rose PPS for my CEG with the message "Please edit, I would love to work out a trade."

They have lots of list pets so I get excited because maybe I'll finally be able to get a good trade down. I send them back a trade adding some pets and saying that it's still unfair to me but I'd be okay with overpaying. Then they send it back to me removing the three most valuable pets I had added saying they're NFT.

Ugh... Nevermind then. Sorry, but I'm not going to overpay by a Yellow Toxic. That's too much. ._. Thanks for getting my hopes up that someone would actually be willing to work out a reasonable trade down.

[MEAT!]

they cancel with ' No, don't even =_= '
please enlighten me on what i did wrong ? if im not losing my mind and my sleep deprive-ness hasnt taken over my body , im pretty sure im overpaying by a years difference ? haha okay pal , your loss ♥

I was looking at some old trades I a aw that I joined at around October ish of 2013, and I got a green fronts holy on the December 18th thig. I didnt know about the list back then, all I thought was "a very rare!" So I see a grown white scarf dog. "What a cutie!" I offer my green fronted holy for the scarf dog. They accept with "sure" and to this day, they still have that holy dog. They knew of its worth. They knew I was new. They knew how much I was overpaying. Did they try and help it a new user like me. No. They took advantage of me...
Can I say I'm angry at them? No.
But I can say...
In just very dissapointed that someone would do that and it honestly just... Disgusts me.

You joined barely 2 weeks ago,,, HOW do you have a billion list pets?

[ExDream]

Saying they'll think about it.


Hmm, seems a lot like they were dangling my dreamie in my face ;n;
