Need 6 on drinal paying 11 each. An EQ sub coast 14.99 so why would I pay 15 dollars for a krono? Idk why people are supporting this its madness. Take back your positive reviews and leave some negative ones for the people who want to jack up the prices. As their ratings go down so should their prices.
 
This person left me false negative feedback and isn't operating in good faith. His feedback claims I've jacked up the krono prices and has now not only done that but made a post about it even further incriminating himself. This is against the rules of the website. I've been nothing but kind to this person as I am to all my customers. We had no real transaction go on this time. He messaged me asking for 6 krono for 12 dollars each. I denied his request and said they are the current price. Hes free to use a different vendor I see multiple at lower prices currently.


This is a danger to all traders as he's weaponizing the feedback system for his own base ends. There was nothing to leave negative feedback for as a true transaction has never taken place for what he's claiming. He asked a question and I responded very politely per the usual. I also told him krono are not just for subscriptions they are for trading in game for items.

You cannot compare an item that not only doubles as a subscription but serves multiple purposes this making it infinitely more valuable than a traditional sub. People buy 20 at a time and more to buy in game items. The markets price is based on supply and demand not anything else. There's tons of traders on this website and they choose to sell their krono based on what the demand is like.


We have an unprecedented server which is frost reaver that is a dream for boxing and free trade. The prices have skyrocketed because demand is high from that alone on top of the other server that drive krono demand. News flash you aren't entitled to a deal just because you want one. I've seen you make similar illogical arguments once red guides just to get struck down because your thinking is actually off by a mile.

But considering when you go to place an order 99 percent of the time you can't even spell your OWN server name correctly doesn't surprise me. "Dranil" vs Drinal. You've been on that server forever. Lol.

Please remove your head from your ass and use a modicum of critical thought.

Dumb ass never heard of supply and demand before it seems. Also krono is for more than just subs. Stop being a douche.
 
I don't um normally get into the middle of this stuff...I just let you all fight it out for the most part...but um....he has a point.

The fact that you've been here since 2015 and posted this slop is just embarrassing. It isn't GC's responsibility, or anyone else here, to sell you something at the price you want and it goes against the entire premise of our feedback system to use it in this way.

I suggest removing your feedback and reviewing some basic principles of economics.

Aside from the fact that your comparison to buying a Krono direct from DB isn't accurate, you also have to wait sometimes up to a week for a krono to arrive if you do buy direct, when you buy here you get them immediately. Also kronos are used as currency in game so again comparing it to a sub isn't accurate. Double also, there is a new TLP up and its VERY popular currently so there is a spike in demand thus price increases.
 
Wasn’t false I asked you since I’ve done the majority of business with you if you could honor my price you declined. So I left a review on price gouging
Disliking the price isn't justification alone to give feedback at all.
Feedback - per the rules of the site - can only be given when you have conducted a transaction. Otherwise we'd all just be running around posting negative reviews on people because we'd like everything to be $0.01

The review must be removed.

Sigh, it's hard to argue with people like this. Because they always fail to use basic logic. But I guess I'll have to spend even more time unnecessarily tearing your argument apart. It's really clear when the vast majority of people clearly see the fault in what you are doing. You aren't entitled to a special price just because you've bought at my "store" multiple times. People walk into Walmart and buy the same shit every single day and they don't get a special "Demark" pricing just because they went there and bought their ground beef over and over again. If the store offers special rewards points or loyalty bonuses that are clearly outlined, then you are entitled to a price discount. But last I checked in my 10 years of being on this website since it was formed, literally, I've not done that at all. If I were to a do a specialty discount for certain people like that, like it says in my buyer requirements, it would be at my discretion.
I literally cover nearly every angle in my buyer requirements because of bullshit like this, people do things like this not acting in good faith. I attached them at the top. So based on that alone "I reserve the right to refuse service anytime for any reason." Being a literal requirement for you to use my service, defeats your entire premise instantly. You agree to operate by my rules when you use my service, thus, you wouldn't be able to leave negative feedback since you've agreed to said rules.

Regardless of that, what you are doing IS actually against the rules. You don't have a REAL attempt at a transaction in GOOD faith. You sent me a message asking a request of me that I'm not required in anyway shape or form to honor. It would have been a kind gesture on my part that's all. I declined the request, and did so politely as well and with respect. You read the response the day after I had already declined, explaining why I wouldn't do that and then left me a negative review saying I'm price gouging. And then by the looks of it on the same day prior, since your SUCH a loyal customer, went and bought from Pory (Who I love and appreciate, no hate to Pory), who's price at the time was close to the same as mine, if not the same at the time. I know he had a 10 krono minimum as well. Either way, very loyal for sure, Demark. Loyal to one thing, who's got the better price. Which I don't blame you for, I don't expect my customers to be loyal to me at all. I treat them all with equal respect and dignity, I never have been shitty to them unless they were shitty to me, and even then sometimes I take the high ground.

But when you put the shoe on the other foot, us sellers are supposed to be loyal to you by your own logic! And we are supposed to take LESS money, when the profitability is higher! So we are not allowed to seize a deal and our opportunity to make more money at peak demand times. We must yield to the almighty Demarks logic and rules that only he! is entitled to a price discount/pricing that benefits him, never the other way around right? You see how that logic makes zero sense. Everyone has the right to decline pricing, just as you have the right to decline to buy my "overpriced" product. You also have the right for me to not leave you a negative review in doing so. Your also calling for every customer to revoke their positive feedback over the years of good faith service on traders, every single one of them, simply because prices have risen due to peak demand of Frostreaver launching. So all of the years of integrity, honesty, honoring transactions, honoring refunds, everything else is thrown out the window due to a pocket of time that will pass regardless.

And furthermore, all of our relationship is thrown out the window because of one little tiny transaction where you didn't get your way. And now to dissect the "majority" of business claim. I went out of curiosity and looked at your feedback, just feedback, I don't need to know anymore. I've left you feedback 6 times, you've had 12 other sellers leave you feedback multiple different times, including some of the regular top ones, and including the most recent one you switched to which was Pory. And I guarantee you still didn't get the price you were asking ME for. And you can feel free to prove me wrong on that. So you don't need to lie and say I'm the majority of your business, I'm not. I also have customers that I deal with that have quite literally bought 50 krono in one go and never ONCE asked for a deal. They appreciate the service, the speed, the fact they can conduct a big transaction with me and not have to worry about being ripped off.

Your not just paying for a price with me, your paying for service quality and trust.

And just so you know, this is false feedback, here's the feedback rules in their current state:

"
Feedback must be honest. It can cover completed trades, failed trades, or trades that were substantially attempted.
ECTunnel also says not to undermine the feedback system with dishonest feedback." - Source: https://ectunnel.com/community/help/terms/

So please, nothing you've said here has ANY weight at all. Every single claim has been dismantled and backed up by facts. Now please kindly remove your negative feedback before you waste even more of my time and money having to go correct your egregious error.
 
I love this site just like my peers and I work hard to contribute to it as well and operate in good faith. Demark, you are literal the less than 1% of people who would do this in bad faith. And unfortunately it says a lot about you. I have never done anything negative to anyone here and treat everyone with respect, whether we agree on a deal or not. I spend over 16 hours on this site per day. It's a literal slap in the face.

I said a Sub as in subscription, kinda like comprehension

Listen, I said what I said because it had to be said . Whether it says a lot about me or not it’s definitely says a lot about you. You know especially all all the price gouging you know how do we go from 9 to 11 $12 to 15 some of y’all won 15+ it’s unreal.
 
This is a waste of time.



Just remove it for him and ban him. These are the type of people that ruin communities.
Staff is not allowed to directly intervene in feedback by removing it. But I am writing up a warning for ignoring staff, and I've donated the ducats for the dispute. The community will make the decision, as per usual.
