Methods of selling dex service

[Randomopkid]

I saw on trade chat that someone wanted to buy dex service so I decided to go over to that person. When I got there, I assumed that I sell dex service by lending the pokemon to my client since that's how other people sold me dex service as well. The person immediately tried to cut my price of 1k each that we agreed on to .5k after I implemented the lending trade. This made me wonder, can I not use lending methods to sell dex service? Do I have to do a normal trade? This person was gonna take my pokemon had I not used lending trade. Someone pls specify on how lending trades work. Thanks...

Use a lending trade.

 

Anyone who tries to change the value of a trade once something is agreed is breaking the rules (admittedly this is hard to prove).

I get round this by not trading with the person after I give them a chance to put the correct amount.

I tend to find that the people who beg and the people who try to alter the value of a trade in the trade window both have the same pattern of typing. Typically lots of please bro and other such stuff.

Thanks Allsmell. I also have a question. Just right now, there's this guy who needed a poke to beat a few gyms. I lended him 2 mons. He immediately tried to sell it on trade. Of course since i lent it, It isn't possible for him to sell it. Is that still reportable though? Just wondering.

[Allsmell]

Probably not, not sure why you'd bother he's just wasting his time. Probably means he's a scammer in waiting, but nothing to be done about it really

Haha thanks allsmell. I just found it kind of funny. Thanks again for your help!

Hi @Randomokid

 

I'm sorry for the inconvenience.

First of all i would like to thanks @Allsmell for the help provided. I'll try to add some information that has been missed and correct something that has been said incorrectly.

As our TRADE RULES states:

• 4. When a deal has been agreed upon, by both parties, you can not go back on it. A deal is done once both price and location of the trade are agreed upon, or an insta price is met
  

Therefore, in case you should agree for the price and the location of a service, in case the trade-partner should decide to break and not follow the agreement, you are able to report them in the REPORT CENTER making sure to provide all the evidences of the events.

Generally it is better to use the lending system for dex services as it allow you to lend any type of Pokémon, even the rarest and most trained one, with the guarantee of receiving them back after the time set has expired.

 

Thanks Allsmell. I also have a question. Just right now, there's this guy who needed a poke to beat a few gyms. I lended him 2 mons. He immediately tried to sell it on trade. Of course since i lent it, It isn't possible for him to sell it. Is that still reportable though? Just wondering.

 

For what regard these specific cases, contrary to what Allsmell said, they are against the rules and they will be punished accordingly to our PUNISHMENT POLICY.

In fact, trying to intentionally sell a Pokémon that has been lent to you through lending system, even if not possible due to the system-protection, it's attempting to scam and therefore strictly forbidden by our rules.

 

I hope the information given provided some clarification, please let me know if something is unclear and if you have any further questions.

Have a wonderful day !

Ah ok. Thank you for the clarification Coordinator Shinohara

I have one more question for the lending system for the dex. Do I have to mention that I'm lending the pokemon to my client? Or is it a given that the client should understand?
