This blog is really a reminder to myself.
Today in auctions I was trying to snipe a daylight costume for 555k and unknowingly added an extra zero to my bid. At that moment I was frantic and tried to go and move my money to the bank. Unfortunately, I was late and was charged 5.5 mil for a costume that was worth 1.5 mil. I was sad because who wouldnt be? My club members were super lovely and encouraged me to ask the user if they would kindly help me with a partial refund. I did that saying that it was a mistype and explained the situation and waited for this user to respond. Although I hoped they would respond, I told them sorry multiple times and said congratulations if they didnt want to return it. The reply I got in return was " it was fair u won auction u shoulda let others have it if u wasnt interested" and was blocked as well. It clearly stated in their profile that they were an adult user and I was a bit taken aback by such a response. However what I learned is how nice people in the community are. One of the users in club ( probably who doesnt want to be named) sent me 5 mil in a ce which of course I turned down. The users on mara have proven to be amazing and ones that are willing to help for the most part.

I also want to thank i8nine for helping notify me of my mistype and also my club members for their help.
Although it was an expensive and little bit disheartening expertience, I learned a lot.

  • Signal 68 Signalomg that's horrible. I'm sending somethign now. Some people are insanely greedy and stupid
  • Signal 68 SignalI understand exactly how you feel. A similar event happened to me on my old account ( not saying what) and a random stranger helped me for no reason. sigh the greed of some users... I feel like mara should start being a little more giving
  • Signal 68 SignalThank you so much for this post, this blog inspired me to give a enchanted chibs plushie to someone.
  • gregoentre 0 gregoentreWhat a pathetic response you got from that user, sorry that happened Also I wish you the best of luck so you can get the mps you wasted back quickly!
  • Queen 50 QueenI'm so sorry to hear that . I once accidentally accepted 5m on a trade worth 500k of mine (the person thought the plushie was enchanted and I didn't pay attention to their MP offer). I returned the MP right after. I'd feel too bad otherwise 0.0. I understand not everyone HAS to return the MP, but to reply so rudely and block someone... how horrible .
  • Adryn 34 AdrynSometime people amaze me on how they can be so rude. If it would have been my auction, I would have refunded you right away. I wish I had something I could do to help ^^
  • Cat 14 CatChloe you know if you ever need anything you can maramail me, that person is obviously not an adult and very rude and mean, sorry this had to happen...
  • Kashh 58 Kashhhoney keep that costume cause the second it retires it will literally be so expensive like the splatter cossie.
  • Sneggz 0 Sneggzsomething similar happened to me. It was due to a mara glitch though, and i got no refund. User blocked me as well. I put an ercuw space fairy pot up for 8m, and showed up in auctions for 8m. and it turned up as 300k when you click on it. I mailed mara and everything, and what did they do? Nothing. Lost lots of money from that ._.
