TOPIC: I got a purp to trade

I got a purp to trade 18 years 6 months ago #1

I'm looking for stuff...

I've got a Ring of Evasion.

Let me know what you have to offer...

Are there other links to what people have traded for the Evasion ring?

I've only had one request at what my demands are... He's a bit
puckered at what he's going to do about it... I guess he's not used
to a barter system....

PM me and we'll see about what I'm looking for.

Take care,
Black

Black,

Actually, I have done a lot of trades on the boards, and have done a fair amount of bartering. What I'm not used to is being ripped off. We both agree on the value of the token and you are just too aggresive for my taste. Good luck in trading with Gary.

You guys are asking what I want... You're not telling me what
you're willing to pay...

All I'm doing is using the list value for my initial offer. I don't expect
to get nearly that much, it's just an asking price...

And as for saying you're "puckered out" and such... Since you
never sent me a counter offer, I figured you weren't in the mood
or willing to barter....

I'm sorry you took offence.

It is all good guys -

Black - apteryx is a great guy!

I must admit that I too though your style came on a bit strong...just remember some of us token geeks don't care for the thrill of the haggle... it boils down to something more simple - just trying to get a "good" deal - and that means that both walk away from the table happy...

If you start off in "ideal mode" - can you blame people to think you want the sun and the moon for a trade???

Your style is your style and up to you...but I think you and I almost walked away from the table unhappy...if you would consider switching to a style more like your last PM - I think you would fare much better with more people...

Just my opinion and I'm just trying to help.

My first four trades were almost exactly book value.

Since we are estabolishing the values of the Purps, and the staff want
to maintain a high value on them, I'm starting above published value.

I go by the "ask 'till they scream, then lower it a bit"... Of course, I
don't know what either of you value the thing at... I just know what I
had wanted (that list minus the scrolls), and hoped to get. :)

We're all happy, and I'm just wanting to unload something I don't want
'cause I doubt that I'd ever use it near as much as the things that I'm
looking for...

:rolleyes:

Book value is a small part of trading...

Again it is all about both people leaving the table happy...

If I have to trade at book - it had better also make me happy - as book price is a GUIDE only...

You ever notice the $$$ value of certain tokens...I would buy some at guide all day long for the prices in there...but would anyone sell them at those prices...I doubt it.
