Trade Rant Thread [V.35]

[Takk]

Canceled before I even saw it. The very first worth while trade for this cat and it cancels

I don't care if you are new
I don't give out free pets
Especially favorites
Go to an adoption center

Just had a monthly swap trade cancelled with "Did you even read my rules?"
Um... Yes I did and my trade wasn't breaking any of them...?

[Suicune.]

Just got this "Will you please accept this trade?" what do I look like an adoption center? no.

[Bleating Ram]

I asked you to edit, you did and made it really unfair to me so I sent it back asking you to edit and make it fair, and you canceled with "sorry"
The 2013 was overpay enough for a few 2015 hoard pets, heck, the uncommon Halloween BW was overpay enough. But nope. You wanted both while giving me two 2015 hoard pets. And you even said "date and rarity matter" and even added a duh after it in your rules. Can't follow your own?

If you don't want it, then take it off your freaking wishlist. It isn't that hard and saves me a lot of grief.

Are people still expecting Rares for the pygmy goat and EPPS Zebra? O.o thought that was over a while ago! Guess not xD

[Kim Jongdae]

lol the demand of you raven doesnt compare when it comes to my joker. Im not going to overpay with my joker for a ravendog XD its quite argueable that the joker has decent demand and not to mention way higher than the raven. Just because your raven has good demand, doesnt mean you can add it into an unfair trade and ask me to overpay.

WTFudge mate.

--I assume this to be fair enough.
They edit.

They took out the two WL pets (the chicken is the only wl left.) And some of the ram horns.
...and expect me to overpay for stuff I don't even want.
This community makes me sad.

Long rant.

I know this trade does not even near equal what this pet is worth but these are the only two pets I have on your wish list and I was wondering if there would be any way we could work out a trade. I also do not have any list pets for trade at the moment, the only one I have is currently in a trade. So anyways please edit to make this fair for you! Thanks c:

sent ready to accept. yes, they were polite, but they still ignored my rules. Now, I cancelled without a message (as I do with these trades.) and moved on.

a few minutes later.... the pm's start e.e

Did I do something wrong. . . ? s:

you ignored my rules and sent an unfair trade, I chose to cancel. sorry if that bothers you, but my rules are there for a reason.

I get a little weird about pm's regarding cancelled trades. as they almost always end badly.

I realized the trade was unfair. I didn't expect you to accept it. I did not ignore your rules in the least, I probably read them three times before sending the trade and even after that I was terrified of your response. I included a message with the trade, did you not read that? Cause it explained a lot. . . I asked you to edit because I wasn't sure what you wanted for the pet. I wasn't sure if you would be willing to trade it for non-wishlist pets or not. If you had read the message you would have realized that I did not ignore your rules.

you did ignore my rules.

- My list pets are for wl list pets ONLY.
Do NOT use non list pets to get around my WL lock! I will cancel.

- list pets for list pets, unless bottom tier advents.
If the pets I have are bottom teir advent list, then Im ok with trading down for a few rares. Otherwise please dont offer non list pets for my list pets.

I sent pets on your wish list and I left a message concerning the other part therefore I did not ignore your rules. If I ignored your rules I would have not offered any wish list pets and I would not have left a message to address the rule.

at this point I realized something: wait no they might not know what a list pet is woops

no, you DID ignore my rules. LIST pets are different from wish list pets. this may all be a huge misunderstanding, so I'd like to ask,
do you know what a list pet is? not a wishlist pet, a list pet.

(also went to see how long they'd been on this site. 2011.)

I know what a list pet is -_- but your rule states that list pets are for wish list pets only.

yes. the two pets you offered are not list pets. thus, you broke my rules.

I know! Ugh I addressed that twice already! I meant to send the trade as a suggestion because I wanted you to have look at my pets and see if you would be willing to trade your pet for anything I had. I honestly didn't expect you to be so strict with your rules. I know I broke your rules but most people would be willing to have a look at a suggestion and compromise or if not at least respectfully decline rather than accusing me of not reading their rules. I read your rules, I didn't break your rules because I simply wanted to talk about a trade not necessarily make one.

wait what? when did they say they meant for it to be a suggestion? they sent it ready to accept, and at no point have they mentioned it should have been a suggestion... they did say I could edit, but uh.... what

I cancelled with out a message in order to remain polite, instead of being rude. at no point have you stated "I meant to send that as a suggestion." now, please, stop pming me. You broke my rules and have become quite rude, I'd really rather not allow this to escalate. I wish you luck in your future trades.

Whatever, it's not worth trading with you anyways.

good for you, you figured it out. Im still confused as to what you hoped to accomplish by pming me. (yes I realize im very cold in my responses. I dont handle anxiety well, and pm's like this are nothing but an anxiety trip.)
