Respect Newbies

I understand that newbies have lower ratings which makes it hard to trust them when it comes to trades, please remember you were a newbie at one point too and to be respectful and not rude. Just because we are new to this site does not mean we are new to couponing or untrustworthy. I have been couponing for 2 years now and love it! I am new to trading but I absolutely love the idea of it. It is hard to get people to trade with me because of my rating and I always get "maybe when your rating is hire we can trade" from other members. Well us newbies cannot get a higher rating if nobody trade is willing to trade with us! I do understand people do rip people off but not everyone does so be more positive.

Thank you for listening to my rant and maybe this will clarify things with other members.
I am very understanding to the high up members but think about other members as well.

Most traders are very willing to trade with new people. Perhaps you can build your rating by sending your end first to 'higher' rated traders.
Thats how all of us got our high rating.


You have to start somewhere right? If rude people are being a bother, you could contact FallenPixels regarding it.

Thanks for the idea I have had a few people mention me send mine first then they back out of the trade last minute, its frustrating sometimes.

That's a shame. Even at high rating some people back out last minute - it is frustrating. I hope things work out for you.

Hi there I have been trading on this site for awhile now and when I first started to trade I never had any issues finding people to trade with me. Yes some asked that I send my envie first and I did and within a week we both got our envies. So it was great but I never had anyone turn me away and find it hard to believe that anyone would do that especially if all they have to do is ask that you send your end first I mean what could they possibly loss if they do that? It just doesn't make any sense to me that someone would say come back when you have a higher trading score that's just ridiculous. I can understand if a newbie asks to make a trade with someone and they ask you to send it first and you refuse then ya I can see why they would say that because I would too but I just think anyone should refuse a trade with a newbie if they are willing to send there end first. Well good Luck

I completely understand! Just keep trading and you will get it.

I was a newbie not long ago too.. and I didn't have any problems. You'll find people to trade with - If some people are rude, maybe you don't want to trade with them ever? Screw em! lol

Agreed! Thanks everyone I know there are a lot of great people on here, unfortunately there are some who need to be nicer and be more understanding because everyone was a newbie at some point.

I hope you have more luck. I never had any troubles trading when I was a newbie, I didn't realize it was such an issue:( There are a lot of "newbie" coupon trains out there too you might have some luck with those and trains boost your rating fast :)
