Trading Post Rant: Why do people do this

Sat Apr 02, 2005 9:30 pm

Grrrrrr...

There is a Valentines Kadoatie Plushie up at the moment, I absolutely adore this item, its just the cutest thing Ive ever seen...

The seller was asking for 300K

Hmmm... pure np preferred... ~10 in Neopia... 300k pure np.



I offered them 302K and was rejected.

I offered them 325K and was rejected

I offered them 300K plus a speckled PB and was STILL rejected.

grrrr why do they say they want 300K if they dont.. :x

and its not as if they accepted a higher offer as the item is still there..

Im so peeved.... I really want this item....

If I could neomail I certainly would.. ( our acc is under 13) as I really want this but obviously this seller wont put what they really want to sell it for on there.....

sorry I just had to vent....

grrrrrrrr

Wow, usually people accept if you give them the auto bid you want. This person probably thinks someone will give them more, they are wasting time. I reccommend neomailing them two times and asking them why they will not accept your offer. If they don't respond it is there fault, they are losing a customer (you could call it that), the person should sell it for 300k but oh well.

Ahem, they CAN'T neomail. Under 13 account...

They maybe have a buyer already and are reserving it but haven't bothered to change the description to say so :/

Or they're just being daft. Maybe you could get a neofriend to neomail them to find out why? I hope you get one one way or another though =)

I offered the 300k plus the PB again and they accepted it..

I couldnt neomail them, our account is under 13 and we dont have the ability to do that.

but yes its very annoying when I offer what they ask for and even when I offer MORE than they ask for, they still dont accept.

least I have the item I wanted now, eventhough I paid over 400k for it...

*hugs new kadoatie plushie*

When I saw the subject of this thread, I thought it was going to be about one of my biggest pet peeves about the TP - the word, "Free" being constantly misused.
