The "pfft" emoticon was merely the closest thing I could find to express the "hey, those are things I asked you about before but hadn't heard back on, GIMME!" feeling I had. Followed by the realization that, "I should let him know that if he didn't want to sell/trade to me but wants to fetch an open-market price, I'm "OK" with that too" emoticon/sentence.
That's all I was implying in those 2 sentences. But like I said, I can see where it could be misunderstood or perhaps miscommunicated on my part.
I'll send you a PM so we don't clutter up your thread beyond this - I really didn't intend on it being any type of discussion, I just thought you'd say "yes, I have some of those now and couldn't sell to you BECAUSE...". (normally I'd insert a  emoticon here, but I'll skip it as these things seem to be causing more trouble than they're worth)
Here's the quote about you having extra TR prints since you asked about it. I sent you a PM about it afterwards asking about them and the response just mentioned the bag, nothing about the prints (thus the whole "pfft" emoticon post to begin with).
Anyway, I hope that clarifies my intentions and motives. You've clarified yours, and it sounds like we're both on the same page about them and good to go. My apologies again if I didn't send you a follow up PM regarding the bag -- I still haven't checked if I did or not (though I remember typing it out), but I'll send you one in just a minute either way.
I appreciate your time and the help you've provided thus far. Thanks. I'll try and double-check my posts/emoticon usage for the future for any implied "rudeness" that is not intended too (if it is intended then I obviously won't apologize for it haha, but I don't think you have to worry about that).
 Let's get back to buying and selling eh? |
Unless the emails delete after a certain amount of time I could not find an email where I said that but don't doubt I did say it, I just don't have any messages in my inbox or sent folder, so I have to assume then that messages auto-delete themselves. Yes I got Tomb Raider prints in, my apologies if I was not as open as I should have been clearing up any confusing as to who technically got them, I simply don't have the patience to wait in the long lines at PAX, so I avoid them, thus, I avoid some cool swag but that is the risk a person takes. Others with me had no problem waiting so they reap the rewards per say, I just sell it for them.
I don't really subscribe to the emoticons thing, personally I feel in today's world since people rarely "talk" anymore and rely on emails, text, instant messages to communicate, its difficult to tell if a person is being rude, trying to be funny, serious, etc. That is the problem with living a world where people rely too much on technology running their lives for them rather than the other way around. I guess I am a bit old school, and since I am probably much older than you, you have to understand why I feel that way, when the internet was coming on board for home use I was already in my mid-20's.
So for me its best to avoid the emoticons and just say what you feel, if you are happy, say so, if you are pissed, say so as well, its much easier to read a person's feelings and reactions that way.
I got your PM and will respond.
