Hey, just like to clarify a few things.

First of all, 10 sat is fairly normal. Unfortunately that night BTC was very volatile and as a result the average Sat/Byte rose by alot, and there is nothing I can do to resend/increase the fees unless blockchain bounces it back.

Second of all, last night you unfriended/blocked me. With your attitude and unwillingness to talk, I assumed you didn't want to continue the topic and proceeded to block you back. You had many other methods of reach out to me including Sythe PMs. I have since unblocked you. I also noticed you deleted a few messages from our discord DM.

the recommended fee is around 60 satoshis per byte. 10 is considered extremely low priority and this Tx can potentially sit in the mempool for well over a week. just adjust the fee to atleast 20 sat/byte so it atleast goes through relativeally soon. if you're really that cheap I can send you the few cents for the fees. I've also contiued to reach out on discord without a response.

the transaction remains unresolved on Xag's end and communication attempts through discord remain ignored

 

Hello,

According to our current rules this is not considered a scam, just bad circumstances and bad communication.
10 sat/b is definitely not priority fee these days, but that's something you should have discussed prior to the trade.
Not every transaction uses the Replace By Fee protocol, so the buyer might not be able to increase the fee, even if he wanted to (he's not obliged to do so).
I'm sorry that you have to wait for the transaction to confirm, but this is not a scam.
