people saying “quest” in trades

i am so, so tired of this

my username starts with z, so i get people trading with me for their “z” letter name quests. however, yesterday after doing a quest for taylor and putting it up on the market, i had someone come in with a random, non-fav common saying “need to do a z name trade quest!” (this was an uncommon song btw, bad blood tv ft kendrick) i politely declined, said “if you want the taylor it’s 750, if you just want a z trade then i have plenty of random commons up costing 50c, favs, or 3:1 each” however, about an hour later, i get a response from them saying “but i need to do a trade quest! pls accept ty” with another random common and i declined and responded with the same thing. this cycle happened 3 more times before i unfortunately decided to block them (i hate blocking people :( but i have plenty of random common open offers rn + was actively putting more on the market) also, they weren’t new. they had more than 50k coins and were level 70 something, so that’s out of the question.

does this bother anyone else? i don’t trade for quests as much as i used to, as i have bought super trader ever since it came out and just reroll until i get a reasonable merge quest or “trade with x number of people” but before super trader, i would always overpay (100-200, higher rarity favs, popular artists, etc) and say “i would appreciate if you would trade with me for a quest, hope you’re having a good day/night :)” but would NEVER consider just offering a common for an uncommon and saying “quest” or nothing at all, like that’s the most impersonal thing ever…

i don't do free 1:1 anywayas it doesn’t benefit me in any way minus a minuscule amount of xp which won’t get me anywhere at my level, and it benefits the other party by either a) trading with me for a quest or b) getting a song they need for a quest. and what do i get? a shit common i don’t need since i have over 2k shit commons? i know it’s only 50 coins, but 50 coins * 20 people traded with is 1k coins, which adds up. plus, i do take higher rarity songs, any favs, or 3:1 for those who don’t want to pay. my quest prices are 50/250/500 and if someone buys in bulk i’ll usually round down to the nearest thousand or take 500 off or something. hell if someone offered a moment or a couple shinies for 8 rares i’d take it. needless to say, i believe that “quest” type trades should be mutually beneficial. you get a trade/song that you need, and i get something that will benefit me in the long run in return.

tl;dr: people who say “quest” and expect me to trade with them for nothing that benefits me piss me off as i don’t ask for much, overpay when i do quest trades, and i believe “quest” trades should be mutually beneficial. plus if you don’t like my prices go find someone with lower prices or a quest shop… thoughts? also are my prices too high? i feel like they’re okay and when i relist songs i’ll relist them for lower (commons 40, uncommons 150-200, rares 400) which people eat uppp

sorry for my yapping lol 😭
