Welcome to Gaia! ::

So, I was going to sell my Sexy Present for 114,300g and my keyboard stuck and I instead put it up for 14,300g. As soon as I saw that, no more then seconds later, I went to cancel it...and JUST missed it. sweatdrop
I decided, I could try to reason with this person. Tell them it was a mistake and offer them their gold plus an extra 700g for it back. (15k in all)
They wouldn't even respond. I tried twice more before I got a response.

Me "What can I do to get my item back?
If you won't send me the item, at least send me the rest of the gold for it (100k) or something of equal value. Please, be fair."

Him "sorry it sold a long time ago"

Me "Who did you sell it to? Maybe I can speak with them then."
(I was saying that to try to see if they REALLY sold it)

Him "okay heres what ill do
how much gold do you have?
if u can give me 50k ill give u an item worth 170k so it we be equal and u can sell the item "

(I figure, okay, let's see what he'll offer)
Me "Sure, no prob.
Thank you for coming to an agreement."

Him "no problem send trade with 50k and ill send the item"

(What does he try to send in the trade? Orchid Headphones!)
Me "Orchid Headphones are not worth 170,000. they are only worth 55,000."

Him "lmp is 170k and ive sold 2 of them at 170k today so take it or leave it ur choice"

Me "Don't think so, the lowest mp price is 55k and the average buy price is only 22,480g. I own a pair myself. If you've sold 2 for 170k, congrats. That also means you have 100k to spare to pay me the proper price of my Sexy Present.

Let's try this again:
You send me my sexy present back
(or if you sold it like you say, give me the name of the person who bought it)
You send me 100k
You send me an item that's REALLY worth 100k

It's really simple. Please, be fair."

Him "no now stop spamming me before you get reported"

(I tried one last time to reason with him)
"How about you just send me HALF the price? 50k, that's it. So it's like you at least bought it at half price. Is that fair?

I bought the Sexy Present for 119k and I don't wish to let it be sold for just 14.3k. It was my mistake, I admit, but I'm trying to fix it and be fair at the same time.

If you sold it, you sold it. Just send me 50k for it. Or the full 100k. Or something equal to either price (I'll even take those headphones at this point) Or just send it back if you still have it & I'll pay you the 15k for it. Your choice.

Let's take care of this like adults and then put it in the past. Please?"

He's been ignoring me since.

I know it's my fault and I know Gaia can't do anything about it. I'm just so annoyed at this person for not being reasonable!!! evil

I've had this happen before, but the other 2 gentlemen were much nicer about it and willingly sent the items back. Too bad not everybody on Gaia is as nice.

I have absolutely no sympathy for you.

All sales in the MP are final and it is 100 percent your fault if you failed to double check the price when you put it in AND at the confirmation screen.
Hell, they even usually tell you if your price is way lower, in some cases.

The user had no obligation to give it back and it's perfectly fine for him to want to keep it as he bought it fair and square.

You're the one in the wrong for harassing him about it. Ask them and if they say no, it's okay to barter a bit but the minute you get to the point where you are bothering them about it and they have told you they're not going to give it back, that's when someone like me would have reported you.

Leave them alone and just move on. Learn from this mistake, and always double check to make sure you sell for the right price.
