Hello- I sent out trade offers to 75-100 different people on pinpics last night and got 0 replies back. Seriously? Not even any "No thanks." replies. I was asking for stamp pins and offering other stamp pins, new hidden mickeys, and other limited release and rack pins. I also sent out offers for some nice le pins offering paris ptn pins, wdw/dlr ptn pins, and poh pins...among other le pins. Really? 0 replies? Am I on some secret blacklist or something ? Anybody else noticing the same thing? Thanks- Jason
 
It's okay, I think it's sort of a common practice for people to just delete messages from trades they don't like. I always ask that if a trade isn't acceptable to at least reply with a no thanks, doesn't always happen. A bit ago I sent out ten requests and got one no thank you, the rest have been completely silent.

It might just be the end of the year, too. More people are worrying about holiday shopping and getting those cards out rather than pin trading.
 
YES I noticed that as well I sent 20 but I got 3 replies ..2 no's and 1 yes..
and thank god none from that one guy..hes just irritating ..if you reply NO!
 
I'm new to the whole pin pics thing....just got done putting mine and my families stuff in. If someone were to send me a trade request, where would I see it at?
 
never used the trade thing yet..mayb sumday soon... hope its not as hard as i read about..
 
I get that; sometimes people write back a week later saying "no thanks" (by that time, I've already forgotten about the request in the first place).
 
Hi Jess
YES the email you registered with PP ..you will get a notification of who you sent too and the requests will come in as well
 
It sucks when you get no replys at all ive only sent one request out to which they didnt respond, but I always make an effort to send them a quick msg to offers i recieve, after all it takes less than a minute to hit the reply button and say 'no thankyou'

shame no one else replyed but YAY for one yes, that was mine one?! lol :-D
 
I was just a little surprised. It's been a few weeks since I've sent out requests and I usually get 7-15 responses back. Just seems to be more difficult to trade online the past 6 months.
 
Honestly I think that the problem is that not all the requests are sent out / get lost in the system. For example I sent out some requests about 2.5 weeks ago. When I received the notice of who received requests I noticed a friend from here. I messaged them and they said that they never received a request from me.

Plus, I have not received any requests from people in well over a month....I find that very surprising.
 
I never get a reply and always offer good pins . If the trade assistant is ridiculous, i always leave a note , see all traders . the only time i got a response was with a military pin, which was suppose to go to Judy . i had no idea till she contacted me .
 
Maybe some people dont have there e-mail accounts set to stop pinpics messages going in the spam filter, The first one I got went in my spam folder, but luckey I always check that too just in case!
