SuperAttackPea Posted February 29, 2012 Share Posted February 29, 2012 Last five times I tried to trade, they all backed out, why is this? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
fulgaraverde Posted February 29, 2012 Share Posted February 29, 2012 I personally have never had anyone back out on me, but I know it happens a lot. People get reattached to the pet, or they change their mind about the offer and try to get something better. They're completely within their rights to do so, but I can imagine how frustrating it is. I think the best thing to do is just move on and try to find another pet to trade for - I think it helps to 'consider' a few offers - if your first choice backs out, choose the second and so on.

hrtbrk Posted February 29, 2012 Share Posted February 29, 2012 Because they're sketchy! LOL (And I think majority of the PC is mixed with 3 people, trolls, people who have no intention of trading, and people seeking trades) I've never had a successful trade go through on the boards after first agreeing. In the end, I ended up either getting sympathy trades from acquaintances or sought the trade out myself after knowing what I wanted on offsite sites like pettp.com (TDN affiliate), pick_a_pet on LiveJournal, or flat out googling for pet pages offering pets. One I've used and listed on in the past is The Agency. What trade were you trying to complete? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
lilshadowdweller Posted February 29, 2012 Share Posted February 29, 2012 That's weird. I did manage to successfully trade my one pet, but I'm not really much of a trader. They are allowed to back out, of course, I'm just sorry you've had such rotten luck regarding it! Which pet are you attempting to trade, may I ask? ^^ Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
SuperAttackPea Posted March 1, 2012 Author Share Posted March 1, 2012 well, the trader decided to trade after I told her I completed her custom, which is nice to hear. On this one trade, I got offered a uc darigan eyrie on 9/6 and the owner (about 96 month old) had ran out of transfers and a month later, she backed out without notice.
