I hate Trades in general. I understand it has to be over like 200k and that's cool but just because your the only one with this stupid item (some non-expensive plushie or food that is related to your gallery) its like you don't have to ask me for 3mill. I mean that's like an overprofit XD it's not that rare. I'd love to meet somewhere in the middle. Some people just are rude about it too. Like how much for ____? they go: 3 mill NOTHING lower than that.


Also, I fucking HATE people who add me for seemingly no purpose. I do have a good shop, so that might be it... but why can't they just specify that that is the reason!? I'm sick of making small talk with random adds only to be ignored later! JUST BOOKMARK ME, ARGH!

/thank you for listening

^ This. I like to say good luck to random people when they are bumping by themselves for like what seems hours and then they decide to add me. WE NEVER TALK. And what could you possibly say?

Add to that that half the handholds are ugly anyway, and they still don't really get rid of the whole clenched fist thing :/

XDDD because TNT WANTS you to cover it up with some ugly handhold :D

sometimes people are just really annoying about haggling. like when they ask you your lowest, you give it to them and they try to go lower.

So it's because of this thread I joined this site ^-^.

So the other night I rs'ed an r99 spooky food legitimately. Completely random luck of a walk in restock.
So I can't find a price. Anywhere. SO I start mailing collectors, asking their opinions on it, what they paid, what they themselves would pay, and I get a crazy range of prices.
I settle on one I think is pretty good.
But did you guys know that there is this reseller guide out there that is apparently the bible? And even if I am the only one with one for sale, I absolutely can not sell for mare than it's worth. Which apparently 1.5 mil. I was asking 3. Not 20, not 100. 3. Because of the users I mailed. And I have had this stupid price guide thrown in my face. Many times. And one guy laughed at me saying "he loved it when people used offsite guides to price their stuff". I told him I nm'd collector's, and he accused me of lying.
This shit. This holy than thou seller attitude. I One guy offer me 800k, I said no, he said, "I don't blame you, I would want more if it were mine."
Why the fuck wouldn't I? Why bother even asking that???? Also, I do sell. I don't often resell, but I sell very low, because it just feels good to be nice. And then Douchepants McLaughatme called me a liar and now I hate egotistic resellers.

I agree. Especially when you put something up and you're the only one who has it and they're all "Oh well you're never going to sell it for that you might as well sell it to me for (insert super low reseller price here)"

I wish we could swear on neopets. I would pay to be able to tell them to go fuck themselves.

Wow maybe their parents liked that name so they named their child that???? ( 。∀゚ )
You're gonna hate it in a few years when people start using anime/comic/video game character names for their children rather than names that match their uh culture/place of origin hehhhh Can't wait for the Homestucks and Narutos to start breeding!.....

The thing is, I find a million things to say! I often Neomail people who add me and try to strike up a conversation and they either don't respond or give me a one-ended answer. IF YOU DIDN'T ADD ME FOR MY SHOP OR TO TALK, THEN WHAT DO YOU WANT FROM ME!?


i wouldn't mind if they had a name like jin or cho just not names like Jim or Michael or whatever. they should keep with their culture.


Er... according to WikiNames, both those names are Hebrew. By your logic, only Jewish people can use those names.

Um... By your logic, Wiki's of any sort are credible resources...? Say that statement again when you read up on some phonetics and linguistics.

I've seen it and it's not worth looking at. It's essentially just another NC value guide except on items that frequent the attic and other junk.

I wasn't claiming to have any knowledge on the subject which is precisely why I quoted my source. I didn't care enough to go in-depth to discover the origins of names that are irrelevant to me. I made a point of showing where it came from as I was merely using it as an example to support my idea that someone else was being racially ignorant.

I am sorry if my choice in reference has somehow offended you. I didn't realise the origin of two names would be such an important topic.

Sooo your bothered they wanted to change their name? Let's just say if someone says your name wrong EVERY single time in Role call I think I'd want to change my name too. Besides, They don't have to stay within their culture. Some people want to fit in and people like you don't understand that everyone wants to be accept by others.
A name change is what a lot of people do(even famous people do that too. You mad bro? :D ). I don't really see why someone changing their name would ever affect your life. Even if your name was the same as their "changed name" your not that special name wise. I'm pretty sure if your name was 3dju293joijsdkl someone in the whole universe would have that name too. Just saying.

You sound like an idiot. Stop while you're behind.

OMG YES +rep.<3 I want to cuss so much at certain people. Like beggars I don't even have neopoints for a draik for myself so when I find a draik egg I do not have to give it to you. Or like rude NC traders(one girl typed in all caps and 3 messages because I didn't respond right after she posted). Just ignore those stupid lower than re-seller people. Its ok to offer like re-seller once in awhile but some people are so ballsy.

Umm maybe they wouldn't mind using their asian names if 99% of the people they talked to could actually come close to pronouncing it. And plus there's that thing where people who don't speak the language always spend 5 minutes trying to pronounce it right, and ask you is it right? What is it again? And try again. And it's never right.
Also, I'm asian but I grew up in the U.S so I consider this my culture way more.

Plus, this comment isn't even offensive to me, it's just like...wtf? "I'm annoyed by people who wear the color yellow"

I got a new one, actually! People who Auction stalk me! IT'S DRIVING ME NUTS! I'll be doing my thing at the AH and notice that two people are only bidding on the items i do and after I do. I think, hey, maybe it's a coincidence seeing as we're bidding on the only good prices here. Waited for some reasonable ones and instead bid on an overpriced junk item.... guess where they bid. >.>

Pretty much everyone posting on the NeoBoards, quitters in KQ, the support team, and when someone accepts your offer and then you never hear from them again. Or just shitty trading etiquette in general. Oh yeah, and people who I just met asking to borrow my avatar items when it specifically says "I don't lend" in my gallery. >__>

Ugh the same thing happened to me. I tried to buy something really expensive and I lost out. This person neomailed me like "I put the item you wanted up, go bid on it" I thought they were trying to help me so I did but I was immediately outbid by someone else. Then he neomailed me again telling me to bid again because they wanted more neopoints. I then figured this person was probably neomailing tons of people telling them to fight over this item. I said no I don't want it anymore and they kept neomailing me asking me to bid on it and I said no. I was able to find a seller for really cheap and they neomailed me again right after I bid on the other lot and they're like "oh wow, how did you get that. That's an amazing price, I can't believe you got that for so cheap, are you selling it I'll pay you 100k more for it!" WHY THE FUCK WOULD I BUY IT JUST TO TELL IT FOR YOU FOR 100K MORE YOU IDIOT? I hate resellers.

I recently found that I dislike the same person bidding on all of an item. For example, codestones. It'll be the same person bidding on like a set of 40. I don't see why you need ALL of them. And then when you bid (its not even profitable but just to mess with them) they bid again. Can anyone explain why in the world would you bid even if its not profitable? There's plenty of codestones for everyone @___@
