Trading - how it works here?

[germanshepardmama]

Can someone help me understand the trades here? I want to start trading online but I want to make sure I want to follow the rules here. OR if there is a forum set up already, can someone please redirect it. 

 

Please and thank you!

Once you have your pins inventoried and your wants and trades listed you can go through the database, select a pin you want. Check the trade assist and see if you have any matches with anyone. Send them a trade request. Be mindful, not everyone is active or will respond to requests. If you do get a response, a lot of people want front and back pictures of the pin(s) being offered.

Take a look at my pins, I am always happy to trade.

I'm a newbie and I am trying to avoid randomly starting new threads. Thus, I will ask a trading question here and hope that is a good idea

 

I have sent many trade requests and almost none of them have returned a reply. I can see that the recipients have read my request. I had one person tell me no to the trade - which was PERFECT because I don't have to 'save' the trade pin from other trade opportunities. Isn't is common practice to at least reply to trade requests so the offer maker can move forward?  

 

Thanks!

realistically it would be great to have everyone reply but unfortunately most do not. But don’t let that deter you. Keep trying
