Pretty much agree with what everyone else said. If they are polite, chances are I'll give it back and vise versa.

Unless it was a WL item, then I would probably keep it and send them something else.

If they are polite, and the item isn't a one that I'd REALLY want, I'd probably give it back.

I have myself mispriced items, I never have contacted the buyer. I've just laughed at myself like "Oh god I am stupid for making such a mistake" and thinking that at least I made someone happy for getting an item way cheaper.

If they were rude and I didnt return it, theyd most likely be the type of person to get their friends to harass me and I wouldnt want to deal with that so I would probably gift it with a very colorful message..

But nice people always deserve their items back 🌈

In all honesty, I wouldn't return the item. If I made the mistake, I also wouldn't contact the person about it and beg to have it back either.

You snooze, you lose. Fair and square.

If someone did contact me asking for the item back, I'd just ignore the comment / smail or what ever. And if they sent a second request, I'd probably block them.

It's not my job to feel sorry for everyone. If you didn't make mistakes, you wouldn't learn.

I personally would never ask for a mispriced item back because it was my fault that I mispriced something. That being said, I prefer not to give the items I snipe back, but if they ask nicely and if it was something very expensive (like an angelic potion or something), I usually do.

I'd keep the item and laugh in their face for mispricing it. WHAT AN IDIOT.

Nono I'm kidding. Well... actually, I'm half kidding. I'd keep it but I wouldn't laugh in their face... I'd sympathize and move on. I'm sorry but mistakes happen. Next time you will double check!

you are, of course, under no obligation to return the item...but think about how you'd feel if it happened to you. if they're being kind and polite about asking for it back, i'd probably give it back. if they're being a total bitch though, nah. they can live with it. hell, if they're being a bitch about it, i'd even go as far as to report them for harassment.

but yeah, it's all up to you!

Honestly, I've never made a pricing mistake in my shop, 'cause I check three items on all my items xD I have accidently donated stuff/missused items/deleted stuff though, and it seriously sucks D:

Sometimes I give it back, sometimes I don't. I know this sounds odd, but my decision making is based on grammar :P I base it on attitude as well, though. But if someone comments me "omg, srry 2 comment u but can i hve my item back plz" I'll flip them the bird, LOL :P

I've only ever had this happen once. Got a pair of wings that I wanted and the person contacted me to give the item back. I caved in and gave it back, but then they actually didn't look the way I was thinking that they would anyway. And the person did give me my SP back, plus I think a cheaper item. lol

I think first off if it was mispriced it's the person's fault for being neglectful.

But if someone is polite and kindly asks for it back, I'd probably return it. If someone's a total jerk, then not likely.

It's very noble of you to offer to return the item, but it IS their mistake. If they really valued the item, they would have made sure to price it correctly and not in a hurry. ;)

I say keep it and block if they start to harass you over it.

I bought an angelic potion for 825k once. I commented the owner after, but she never responded. So I kept it.

Honestly, if they had asked me to give it back I would've, but with very poor grace. :/

It's okay, I guess, if they ask nicely and admit their mistake, but if they're rude about I'd just keep the item. :P

no ones ever asked me for a mispriced item back. although i cant really think of a time when i made a serious snipe (that was obviously mispriced).

but had they asked... im not really sure if i would give it back. maybe it would depend on the item and how much of it was mispriced.

if it was something that i REALLY wanted and they asked for it back... idk, id probably be a horrible person and ignore their comment D: i would no doubt feel guilty about it though.

If they asked me nicely, and explained the situation without jumping on me I'd give it back..

Thought if it was something I really really really wanted, I'd want to keep it...I would offer them more SP or items though I think.

But if they were rude/jumped on me for buying a mispriced item I'd keep it. So it mainly all depends on how they ask

I think it is their fault and so your choice to keep or return...

As long as the user is nice when they contact me I always return the item.

I have had that to happen to me, and although I would never ask for the item back because I think that is rude, I do understand how upsetting it is to lose your source of sp to a dumb mistake, especially if you are just starting out here.

I've actually bought items that were most likely pricing mistakes, since I'm lousy and I like good deals. I've also bought stuff that were huge undercuts, so it's actually hard to tell what was undercutting or a pricing mistake. (I.E. I bought a Maids Wig when the going rate was about 2.5 million for 1 million, and an Archduchess Pin for 40k when the going rate was 400k. I'm actually not sure which was which.)

I've never gotten comments on anything I've bought in that way. If someone asked for it back because of a pricing mistake, though, most likely I'd ask if I could have it for a discount. -lousy-

I usually would give it back, it just makes me feel nice. Sort of like randomly giftbombing people, you know? :P

But if it was something worth like 100 mil and they priced it at 10 mil, my greediness wouldn't allow me to give it back. ):

I have sniped quite a few items, but I have never had someone contact me and ask for it back. I suppose if they asked nicely I would probably return it, but I guess it would depend on the item. lol

Personally, I would never ask for a mispriced item back. If I made the mistake, then it is MY mistake.
