DOOM, SUPERHOT, Assassin's Creed Syndicate, Firewatch, Far Cry Primal, Fallout 4, HITMAN™, and No Man's Sky are AAA titles. You can't honestly put these up in exchange for a gift that has gone for around 3$ before. I tried to tell you this once, but you completely missed the point.
Besides, even if I don't tell you this, the others who will show up here via the Search option will say the same thing.
a) It's easy to miss the point if it's never made. "No words" is not really a point.
b) This is simply my wishlist. People can choose a non-AAA title from it, is having a seperate list for every trade you publish a requirement? (honest noob question).
c) You do realize I inform anyone who reads this that I got those from humble bundle.
d) You tried to make that point before in a trade that resulted in both parties being happy, which is why I don't see your point being valid.
e) I don't keep track of what price drops or sales steam does. Some of the games in my wishlist have probably gone around for a ridiculous price as well, you don't see me pointing it out.
Now, if there are rules about this that I'm unaware of, I'll gladly check them out. This one is my second trade, I might have missed something.
- One of the assumptions I made when I said "No words.." is that you had no idea of the unfairness of the trade you asked for. I wasn't wrong there, it seems.
- Wishlist or not, it is common knowledge that you are not supposed to ask a new, and frankly costly game in exchange for one you got at 1/10th the price (and I am being super generous here). And yes, you need to keep a filtered list per trade. Else people just assume you do not know shit about the prices.
- You informed people of the origin of those keys, yes. But like the previous point illustrated, your list of games in the [WANT] section has to be fair with respect to the ones you listed in the [HAVE] section.
- Yes, it did, but you were also lucky to not have a price-regurgitating freak show up and lambast you for the same point I am trying to make.
- If you are gonna be in the trading game, I would highly suggest you started paying attention to price drops and sales. And while some of the games have gone down to low prices due to glitches (Eg. HITMAN was 15$ on Amazon for a brief while), it still is nowhere near the same price as anything on your list.
If this is really your second trade, I have nothing against you. But my first instinct was that you were trying to shark people, which frankly, is what many others major traders would think as well. Hope this clears up the issues we had with each other.
OK, you thought I was a pro trying to squeeze money out of people, I get that. However, I don't even intend to become a regular trader. I simply want to be able to exchange stuff I already have with stuff I don't, whenever this occurs.
Here's what I don't get, though. Is the [WANT] section a field for stuff that you absolutely demand from the other party? From what I understand, no.
My take on this was: here's what I'm missing, if anyone sees something he has and would like to trade it for the games I'm offering, he'll contact me. I did not filter that list because I supposed any interested parties would check the prices up before offering a trade. And by that, I did mean the current prices, cause I didn't even think it would matter if something was on sale or not at some point!
And, without any intent to be an ass here, why does it matter -if a game is not on sale anymore? It does not look like it matters when trading anything else. This is also an honest question, there's probably a good answer, I'm just not aware of it.
Its not absolutely necessary to filter your list, it just makes you look like an asshole when you don't. I thought I made that clear.
And yes, games get sold at a price close to the highest sale discount, even when the game is not on sale. Anything above that and buyers refuse to accept it. The highest discount a game receives is considered a ceiling for prices on any game there is (unless the game receives sales very infrequently).
Eg. You cannot sell something like Ark : Survival Evolved for full price, because there will always be people willing to sell the game for something close to 33% of the full price.
PROOF - Almost all sales are something close to 8-8.5 keys (33% of the total price).
