Man, Traderie is wild

I started listing some items over there and really like the interface and have had some pretty good luck but holy crap at how some of these people operate. The pendulum swings in extremes. Some people cancel their offer in 8 minutes if there is no response and some people wait days before responding to an accepted offer. The site really should make it mandatory to display the time zone you are in. I think that would help in some cases at least

traderie is usually a very fast paced trading website, I got over 10k trades over there

I don't know if anyone will agree, but this site and its community seems a lot more down to earth than others. Trades here feel less profit-motivated and more "for the love of the game" and actually helping people out. I made a couple trades there but didn't care for it. Now this is all I'm active on.

Got the same impression. Manners and love for the game are here at

Io; speed and profit there (often not even time to say good bye or thank u...)

I placed an offer for an item where I offered the ask price.
It took 10 hours or so before the seller accepted my offer.
Then, since I did not react to his message within 6 minutes, he cancelled the trade saying 'buyer was unresponsive'.
What a bunch of crap. I've had this numerous times.
It feels that site is filled with people who don't do this because they love this, but because their income is dependent of it. It's work.

I've had the exact same thing happen to me today. I like the site mechanics and ui, but I've had this happen alot, mainly because of time zones i believe. I have woken up in the morning and checked and had 4 to 5 different users cancel offers because i was asleep and not fast enough

100%. I see a lot of people on here gifting items away for the love of the game as well. Great community here and I'm glad to be a part of it

I have to admit there are enough very nice people as well on Traderie.
I bought an ethereal Insight

Giant Thresher today (only 1

Jah!), got it as expected. Then the seller dropped a 4os ethereal

Colossus Voulge. "Gift" he said. I'm pretty sure I'll find a very good use for that

They do have some good features. I very much like the instant messaging system where, instead of adding someone on Battle.net (to have instant messaging!) you can just easily give a game/pass/server to join for a quick trade.

I decided to look on there again since I happen to want a couple Dreams with higher resists and I am fully convinced these people are living in a fantasy world. 20

Jah for a 20res Dream

Diadem cannot be a serious ask.

I am pretty active at Traderie aswell, as its a good source of runes or base items with Open socets or other items like jewels / gems.

its like you say, most ppl don't have the time to wait for a couple hours if said person are asleep or at work, I have had my fair share of listings canceled, but I have also met some incredibly reliable ppl that wait for a long time or that when you have waited for days / hours for them to accept the trade you would get some free runes or items as compensation for them taking alot of time, or even ppl that would give runes for wasting time if they did not have an item they listed or made a wrong offer on something that was not Etherial for example.

Its a bit of both, mostly I have had successful transactions, but also some bad ones.

I am trying to be the more patient sensible person, always say ty and in-game thanks with num pad 3, but some rush to fast for that even.

it sure has its ups & downs.

Edit, I also found out that if you would set your status as Offline on Traderie, all your listings would not appear, and ppl could not send offers for when you are asleep or working, started doing that, then relisted stuff when I am actually home and in-front of the computer cuz of so much canceled listings otherwise

if you are on traderie do you also notice a slow down in the volume of trades there ? (less offers or ppl less responsive?)
