Has anyone had a good experience with Traderie or am I wasting my time?

Description

Has anyone had a good experience with Traderie? Just recently tried it and so far I've responded to three offers for
Pul
runes for gems/low runes there offering the buyer's exact stated asking price and have either been completely ignored or in one case actually actively declined on an offer that remains open when searched for. Seems kind of like a waste of time generally. Have I just had bad luck here or is this typical?

Can be used to make Runewords:

Hit and miss for me.

Sometimes I find good deals and the seller responds nearly instantly, and the trade goes smoothly. This is how I got my
Zod
and some other runes to make a BotD and CTA.

Other times, I give the exact asking price and no response, then after a day they decline the offer.

Also, the "Looking For" feature is confusing.

There's been a number of reports of frequent scamming, phishing links, and fake offers on Traderie, so it's up to each person to be attentive when using the site. I've done well enough on diablo2.io, and in-game trades to not have a need to use Traderie, but that's just my experience.

Yeah my experience trading here is generally positive or at very least characterized by people who appear to actually want to sell the shit they've put up for sale if you have what they've said they're looking for. Did a quick search for Traderie related posts here before posting and they're almost all related to people getting scammed

I use Traderie regularly - it's quite a different experience than here on diablo2.io, that's for sure, and yes, there are scammers there and you need to be careful when dealing with people who have a low number of reviews, or that don't have the maximum 5.0 score, but overall, I'd say that I've had far more good experiences than bad there.

The majority of my trading is on ladder, so keep in mind that this is coming from a ladder perspective. I find that the ladder activity on diablo2.io is a bit lacking. It's better here on non-ladder I think. I used to trade on both sites in parallell but I was getting so few offers on my listings that eventually I just stopped putting up new listings here. There's a number of items for which you can hardly find listings at all here, while Traderie is overflowing with them. Yes, a lot is overpriced, but that's just asking prices, you have to look past those. Scroll past the the first 5, 10, whatever, insane listings that some users keep bumping (if you're a monthly subscriber you can bump without limitations and some abuse this), and you will find the real listings, from regular people, with decent value or even bargains. There's plenty if you just look past the bumpers. Another advantage of Traderie is that all the Koreans are trading there, and the Korean D2R community is huge. Ladder trades in general are also generally a much better experience early ladder, during the first couple of weeks, up to somewhere around halfway through the season, and we're currently in the late stages of the current season, but that's true for any ladder marketplace, I think.

As any unregulated free market, there is always going to be scammers and people looking to take advantage of others. But like I said, I've personally had far more good experiences than bad there. It's far from perfect, for sure. And I hate their aggressive & disruptive ads (I use an ad-blocker normally, but whenever I visit the site without it's rage inducing lol). If you know how to use it and accept or at least can look past its flaws, it can be great. But obviously, if you don't like it, I'm not here to try to convince you to do so, just providing my perspective on it.

I'm in CET (Central European Time), so that's UTC+1 normally and UTC+2 during DST.
My profile says Ladder, but I play both Ladder and Non-Ladder.
My profile says Softcore, but I play both Softcore and Hardcore.
My Holy Grail Tracker is for Offline Hardcore.

I prefer here, that's why I am a mod here, but for high end stuff there is much more options on Traderie. But I almost only doing the buying there, not the selling.
Especially the charm skin swapping is way easier there. :)

Hi, there, if you want to get it sold quickly, meaning save your time, time is money.
You need look into history and put 1 bit lower than market average. Meaning you are most competitive seller in market. Usually you can get your deal done within 1 hour in case of sell
Pul
.

There are a lot of problem there. Some trader is dedicated to scam player in exchange of few
Jah
with nothing farming game play or legal trade.
Some use low value trade , like 1
Pul
to create good image of 200 good review. Those is planning for bigger trade like 10-20
Jah
scam or even a box of
Jah
if they dont deal it carefully.
I recently see a case, he build positive review and sell 140
Ber
for 20~40
Jah
. Which is obvious scam, we all know 2
Ber
cube 1
Jah
. earlier it is full box of
Ist
to
Jah
.

Be careful to trade there, it is full of
Thorns
road.
From what I see, it is averagely 1 trap/scam in each different category out of 100. Some just not so problematic trade, they just give bad review without trade.
scam is quite common there.

Favor
Perfect Amethyst
over
Perfect Skull
...
These days, I don't need that much
Perfect Skull
, it is less encourage to pay in
Perfect Skull
but it will treat slightly better than
Perfect Gems
.
