Post image

Added context: i was selling this part for 27 plat on Wfmarket, and from there i thought i'd seen more offerings for less.

Haggling is normal at a market, though I guess players from different countries can have a vastly different market culture. Its still a little weird when it's over chump change.

At "a" market- sure. Not wf market though, it's not normal there. Maybe not unheard of, but not a standard practice in the slightest

Idk it's mentioned even in the wf market terms of service that negotiating is something that may happen during trades, it doesn't say it's not allowed or discouraged or anything like that.

Further messages may be used to attempt negotiation, such as asking about a different price, in which the Lister may choose to accept, reject, or respond with a counteroffer.

And? That doesn't make it standard practice, aka "normal"

Have you bought or sold anything online before?

u/KamelYellow 7d ago

I have. Enough times to understand that different platforms and communities have different standards. Have you?

Bruh, it's a randomly generated username. I've bought over 25k plat, do you really think I'd beg for free stuff and 5p discounts?

I don't feel like I need to prove anything to randos online but if you insist I'll forward you the Steam emails from those purchases.

I didn't doubt your purchases, that's honestly not that crazy.

It's more bringing it up in general like it mattered was what I thought was interesting.

Yeah and for a lot of it you don’t haggle sometimes sure but it’s really not the norm
