Rudeness on Pinpics
I've traded in person at Disneyland for years before joining here. A lot of people here know me in person. I try to be the best trader I can be at the park. I'll trade just to trade. If someone wants something I have and they don't have anything I want I will usually trade for a trader just to make them happy. But I won't get ripped off and I won't rip someone else off.

That being said, the other day I was interested in an LE 2000. The only thing they wanted from me was a very desirable LE 200. I politely told them no thank you. They badgered me and followed me to other tables and I kept being nice. Finally I asked them if they wanted to maybe add another pin or 2 to the trade because 1 for 1 wasn't a fair deal. They called me an a hole! I was nice to them the whole time, even after the name calling.

If you get a reputation for being a jerk, it will spread and people will quit trading with you. And it has happened. That's how I look at it.

Im sorry you got such a rude response from them.
 

:lol::lol: oh my gosh i'm sorry--i wanna be your friend. This crappy story made my day! So somebody actually had the balls to expect to trade an Le200 for a Le2000 and hound you (bad form) and then call you an A hole for offering to accept a 3 pin trade for your pin???!?!!? ahhhhhh life is good.
 
Oy, I have gotten some real doozies from other collectors. I'd say they were raised in a barn by a badger, but that's an insult to the badger. Who raised these people and I use that term loosely.

My advice, don't respond to rude emails, some people want to fight and love the drama. Just laugh and hit delete and know your life is so much better theirs!!

Not sure why some are bashing Dizpins Reference Center. It's pretty much the most reliable reference source out there. DPF is good to. So, I would say those 2 are the best to check references. Always check references.
 
They called me an a hole! .

Being one of those people who have traded with you for years , you kinda are :rofl:

Please anybody reading this understand that we are like brothers and Andy is one of the nicest traders I have ever met which is why I am busting his chops (yes lets go with chops) He trades as easily in person as I do and he is there a lot more then I am, which makes him an amazing person!!!

If you ever get the chance to trade with him, take it!!!
