If you happen to catch an item that may or may not be way under priced in a user shop, do you buy it and forget about it or do you contact the seller and see if they want to buy it back for the price you bought it at?

So you find it rude if someone buys something from your shop that was accidentally under priced and they don't contact you? Or are you okay with it because they bought it fair and square?

Are you insulted if the seller contacts you and basically tries to throw a guilt trip on you?

I caught a Jade Corset Dress for 47k. I didn't think much of it. A couple minutes ago, the seller commented me and, probably not meant to guilt me, talked about miss pricing the dress and losing sP.

To me, it is rude to comment a buyer for buying your miss priced item if they didn't say anything to you.

I don't really see it as rude if someone misprices an item and after someone buys it comments them seeing if they would return it. If they get all pissed off then it's not okay but there's no harm in trying?

Sometimes if I find an item that was an obvious misprice I'll comment the person and trade back with them... I found a 1 Month GA for just over 700k about a week ago though and got greedy so I didn't comment the user and they never commented me. I don't feel bad about it... had they contacted me I likely would have traded back. I'm not always going to go out of my way to fix someone elses mistake if I don't have to!

Personally, I think birthday begging is far worse.

If someone misspriced something, it really is their fault and not the fault of the buyer. It's a mistake - learn from it and be careful next time shrugs I don't like it if people comment me saying: "I misspriced my item and lost a lot of money because you payed less then I wanted you too".

I would be upset if I lost money because I misspriced, but that's my mistake and I might comment the buyer just to say congrats on the snag 8D

I profit from people's mistakes ^_^; I have snagged some 700k GA's and MCTs and other underpriced items in the past, and people never commented me so I just used them. Maybe if they had commented me I would've sold it back. Not sure though

Exactly. If I make a pricing mistake I say some bad words, hit myself in the face and get over it :P

I think it only becomes valid with huge mistakes, but at the same time that is big potential profit for the buyer. As long as the contacting is done politely I don't see the harm in asking. It does however put the buyer in a lose/lose situation if asked =/

That has happened to me before, with a Subeautique item. The seller contacted me and got a leetle more than rude when asking for their item back, so of course I wasn't willing to do a trade for my sP for the item.

On the other hand, a couple of weeks ago I caught a super rare for considerably cheaper than the others, and I contacted the seller and let her know, and sent her item back. I'm not unwilling to be nice and send someone's item back, but just don't be rude about it? :P

I agree on birthday begging. Far worse when it's on 500 different places in subeta's forum than just in your comment box. I do think people don't have to ask refund about their own mistakes.

I'll definitely snipe a good deal out of a shop if I see one, but if a seller were to contact me explaining that they'd mispriced the item I'd offer to trade it back for the sP I paid. I am easily guilt-tripped. :P

Same with pets in the pound; if I accidentally interrupt a transfer then I give the pet back.

That said, if I accidentally misprice something then I won't ask for it back. I don't like the idea of ruining someone else's stroke of good luck.

Ouch, that was harsh.

If I catch an item what's worth million or more then I do contact the seller, but if the item is just couple of hundreds like in your case, then I don't.

I just scream at computer something not-so-nice and get over it. :D

I would be insulted, since they got sP of it anyway. Also possibility that seller would get that item back by comments like this is 0. I would probably block them or something. xD

I don't usually snipe unless there's a 100k difference because I'm cheap like that.

If it's any lower, I buy it and give it back to the person for free, explaining how they mis priced it by a certain amount.

...that's probably why I'm so poor but whatever, I think it's a nice thing to do. :P
