Chambalane Posted September 7, 2018 Share Posted September 7, 2018 Someone asked me to sell a pokemon and I told him that I don't want to trade it and tell him, if I change my mind. He asked me so many times and what I want for it. I didn't know what it is worth, because I never sold a Pokemon before. He offered me a price that was to low. I told him, that I guess, it would be ok, hoping that he will not ask me again. After that I found out, that it is much more worth. Can the player insist on a trade, even if I don't want to trade it? Because I told him that I will tell him, if I want to sell it a few times before. I "accepted" the prize, so he wouldn't press me anymore to sell it Thanks for help Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

If a price and a location is not agreed upon by both parties, you are not bound by the rules to do a trade. In itself, it isn't against the rules to bargain or attempt to convince a player into doing a trade by sweetening the deal, but if the player starts to harass you over it, that is against our rules and you should report the player with appropriate evidence in the Report Center. You can read our How To Report thread for guidelines on making a report. You can learn how to add images to the forums in the Forum Images Guide. I understand that you may feel frustrated and regretful about selling a Pokemon at a much lower price than you feel it was worth, but we do not reverse trades that were originally agreed upon by both parties. If you wish to be more cautious in the future to avoid doing a trade you may regret, you can try to get a price check from other plays in All Chat, or you can ask for a price check in the Rates/Price Check - Silver or Rates/Price Check - Gold forum. Also, if you wish for a player to stop messaging you for any reason, you should use the /ignore <username> command, which will block the user from sending any messages to you during your login session. Lastly, you can review the full Trade Rules to familiarize yourself with the specifics and be informed as to what is a punishable action and what isn't for your future reference. Let me know if you have any further questions; until then, have a great rest of your week! Kind Regards, Astraea.

Chambalane Posted September 8, 2018 Author Share Posted September 8, 2018 Hey Astraea, thanks for your answer. I didn't trade it yet. I was just afraid that I have to trade it now, just because of some ingame private messages that seemed like I accepted the trade. I read the rule, but I wasn't 100% sure, if I am forced to trade now, because of the messages and could get problem in future. But it doesn't seem so that I will get any problems and I can enjoy the game now again. Thank you, Astraea! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
