Maybe he didn't want to trade with you .

It's never good to just assume he scammed.

cool story. I dont see how this is a scam, he got a better offer.

 

This sort of thing happens all the time.
If I were to get a better, faster offer I would take it.

afther i took the autowin and autowin is that you auto win the acc isn't it?

and i said: kinda scammed cause i don't now how to say it in other words sorry...

 

That just means he isn't true to his words. Don't trust his a/w's in the future.

 

[hey guys]

If he got a better offer, he'll take it. You didnt lose anything, so the scam is non existent.

His honesty however is in question.

Than he should have not setted a auto win... why do you guy's don't understand me....

haicoo, a autowin doesnt mean the seller has to sell the account to you, say you were going to buy it for the autowin but he wasnt on and then someone else offer the A/w he would obviosuly take the guy that was on at the time i can see how this confuses though

 

[hey guys]

What do you mean i dont listen.
As i said his honesty is in question.

There is no rules on A/Ws, they can accept another guys offer anytime anywhere.

Just because he didnt sell to you doesn't mean he scammed

Apparently we're the ones that don't understand?

It's not scamming, but it's defiantly bad mannered trading. In most online trading communities it's looked down upon and people avoid trading with members who do it.

Autowin is auto win for a reason.

There is a general rule which stems right out of the word "Auto-Win". You can't outbid someone who said he'd pay the a/w price. Just like if you and someone else make a trade agreement, it's bad mannered to go ahead and trade with someone else instead, even if they offered you a better deal.

@haicoo It's defiantly not scamming, but you're right to be mad about it.

Well said. It's bad mannered, but nothing illegal, and we don't have binding sales like Ebay.

I'm going to lock this now as we're all starting to repeat ourselves. Better luck next time.
