jansdreams Posted February 2 Share Posted February 2 I have made several pin trade requests and I have only gotten 1 response. Is there a secret I don't know about how to do this. I am not even getting negative responses. I go onto the compare areas and make offers and I get nothing back from people. Am I doing something wrong, I don't even know if they are getting my messages. Please advise JansDreams Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Chowar33 Posted March 11 Share Posted March 11 (edited) @jansdreams did you figure out what was wrong. I have experienced the same issue. I have sent tons of trade requests with only 2 responses. Edited March 11 by Chowar33 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Hi chower33, after I posted, firechief18 checked and sent me a message and figured out my trade requests were working, I guess peole just were not interested or not reading the requests! It's too bad because I feel like I'm wasting my time. JansDreams 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

You can also look at the person's activity and feedback scores. If their activity is high there is a better chance they will respond. 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It's too bad because I feel like I'm wasting my time. JansDreams I kind of figured as much. I have only gotten 2 reply’s out of many messages sent. Finally about to make a successful trade but it’s definitely not very easy on here unfortunately. I love the concept but I wonder if there a lot of people who have old accounts and don’t really use the platform anymore. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Review the other persons activity and feedback to gauge whether or not you might get a response. Also follow up with a PM after a week or so. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
sithathoriunet Posted March 16 Share Posted March 16 I find that my success in trading via PinPics ebbs and flows. Some months I have no luck at all, then suddenly I'll end up with a multi pin trade or two and feel on top of the world! 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
M_Ally_C Posted March 26 Share Posted March 26 I have the same problem and was wondering the same thing! Thanks for posting the question and for all the responses. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
disneypinmark Posted August 21 Share Posted August 21 I have sent quite a few trade requests recently and can see that the messages have been read. I know my trade assist is working as I have also received trade requests in the past. i think it’s common courtesy to send a reply to a trader even if is not a trade I want to complete. I just wish everyone would do the same thing. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
firechief18 Posted August 21 Share Posted August 21 For the most part people in general try to avoid confrontation. Or they are like me, I'll read something and decide to do some research later for a possible multi-pin trade, then a squirrel moment occurs and I totally forget to look. Other times I try to see if they are on one of the other forums and reach out that way as well. 5 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

DisneyCatMom Posted August 23 Share Posted August 23 I send out quite a few that are never answered either. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
TheTwins Posted August 23 Share Posted August 23 Sadly, there are quite a lot of cases like this. We get a lot of them ourselves. It can definitely be discouraging to not receive answers back. We always try to be quick to answer trade requests for that reason, but a lot of people don't. Sadly. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
