if i want to get the avie i would offer on a random trade wworth a lot more than what i am offering, just to make sure the person doesnt accept and run away with my nps :/ i am not sure he is scamming, seems like he just wanted to safely offer his pure so he has nothing on hand :/

If he offered his NPs on a junk trade then what would there be stopping the seller from running off with them? Doesn't sound like a scam to me.

it doesn't sound like a scam to me - he wasn't asking you to accept the offer. he was playing it safe by offering all his nps on a much more expensive lot so that you wouldn't accept it.

Yea, for the soup faerie avatar, you dont need to accept his offer, he can visit her just by offering his nps on a trade :)

I didnt know that _jaspeh_ , thanks for letting me know :P
I thought with the soup faerie you must only have 2K on hand. Even offering your pure in trades i thought it didnt make any difference because that person hasnt acc nor rej your offer so you basicly still have more than 2K on hand. Thats why i assume he wanted me to acc his offer so that his 100K would go to me so then he can have the 2K below on hand.

Nah, it takes the NP out of your on hand as soon as you offer, then its no where on your account. Leaving you brrrroke enough to swindle an avie from the Soup Naz..erm Faerie. :D
