I know that we all have received these and I have had way worse offers but this one made me giggle.

JOE offers NChouser this pin: Pin 87963 (WDW - 2011 Hidden Mickey Series - T-Shirt Series - Tinker Bell (PWP))
In return for one of these pins:
Pin 91612 (WDI - Sorcerer Hats Mystery Pin Collection - Characters 5 - March Hare)

Obviously I changed the guys name that made the offer and I realize that most of the time they just click/click/click and do not pay attention to what they are doing.

So that is my funny offer from this week.

What are some of yours?


 
How about this one? I've been getting various request from this person a few times per week.

XXX offers pargani this pin: Pin 90945 (Good Vs Evil - Mystery Pack - Oogie Boogie Only) - OE with upside-down trade ratio
In return for one of these pins:
Pin 92632 (WDW - Mickey's Not So Scary Halloween Party 2012 - Villains Mystery Collection - Evil Queen Chaser ONLY) - LE150
 

Thats a great trade!!! lol haha

wow that is even worse than mine this morning.
 
I've been offered

Pin 85372: Vinylmation(TM) Collectors Set - Animation - Naveen Only

for my:

Pin 93179: DLR - NBC 'What's This' Series - Mystery Collection - Behemoth & Easter Bunny Chaser ONLY - LE100
 
Oh, yeah- pretty much a weekly thing for me. I can't even remember the most insane one, but often, it's the easiest pin on my Wants for any of my $100+ Disney Auction LE 100s (or my Jessica As stuff).

In fact, it stuns me when I get anything close to even. Been getting some good ones lately, but I tend towards multiple trades these days, due to post office fees, so I don't always accept. But it's nice to see even offers pop up.

How dare you!!! haha just kidding

The only issue is that if I see a WAY off trade I do not even entertain the idea of trading with that person. Just me though
Click to expand...

I don't do anything extreamely silly... like HM for le100 I would be out of my mind if I did that! LOL
 
Just got this one:

they offers <me> this pin: Pin 2954 (WDW - Halloween 2000 (Mickey Mouse as Scarecrow))
In return for one of these pins:
Pin 26745 (Disney Auctions - Photo Booth Shots (Tinker Bell))
Pin 44881 (Disney Auctions - Tinker Bell Through the Decades (1960's))
Pin 44882 (Disney Auctions - Tinker Bell Through the Decades (1970's))
 
What may seem like an unfair trade request, maybe fair in another's eyes. That is all. But I did get one for my WDI Sorcerer Hat - Happy New Year Big Al.
That pin isnt even for trade. They guy sent me a request: 3 hidden mickey's and an OE for another pin but he said in a side note he really wanted my Scorcerer Hat.

"Get Out, dude!"
 
Start sending these peopl links to my "how to guide for pinpics trade assistant" man!!!!
http://disneypinforum.com/showthrea...ide-Pin-Pic-s-Trade-Assistant&highlight=guide

On a similar note, I am actually turning off my trade assistant for a while. So many TR's that are rediculous, plus I went waaaaaay overboard on shipping last month.

this mornings offers in my email:
an upsidedown rack pin for my LG PODM :facepalm:
A hidden mickey with scrap alerts for my DSUK Petes dragon.:eek2:

there were more, but those took the cake.

I've had plenty of these ridiculous ones too, and only a handful of perfect, very reasonable (and accepted) requests.

My question is, when you receive these...do you bother replying and trying to explain "You're way off", or just not answer?
 
I get them every day no one sees the value of a lot of pins sorry but edition size rarely cuts it for me I am cocnerned about monetary value especially for dlrp pin trading night pins as I pay the going rate for them or at least wants/trades ratios. Sadly I dont reply to silly requests any more

Dependiong on my mood, and how many emails I have to clear, and if my kids are crying or happy, AND if its the 5th day in a row I recieve the same request from the same person.....

Yes, I reply to a bad request, but I rarely go into why, unless it is the 5th(or 6th or 10th...) time I have gotten that request.

But lately, I just havent had the time or energy to reply to any TR's, fair or not.
 
Speaking of replying to pinpics requests, all you have to do is reply to the e-mail you get to respond to that person, right? Because numerous times I've replied to a request saying "Thank you but not interested at this time" or something along those lines, and yet I get the exact same trade request from the exact same person two more times over the course of the oncoming week. This has happened a few times which made me think replying to the pin request wasn't enough.
 
I will Admit I am one who is click happy sometimes. also sometimes my son gets on my pinpics and likes to just click away.. I feel you never know maybe other offers come in and all you have to do is hit deleate the message and keep going.
 
Got this one last night...what a deal...for him.
