HueZee_ ✔ [OzPaw]: hello
HueZee_ ✔ [OzPaw]: how can i help you buddy?
Rage I Drakemoon: Hello
Rage I Drakemoon: I added you to buy some of your skins to restock the site
HueZee_ ✔ [OzPaw]: what site?
Rage I Drakemoon: Drakemoon
HueZee_ ✔ [OzPaw]: what brought you o my account?
HueZee_ ✔ [OzPaw]: to
Rage I Drakemoon: You are in the Drakemoon group on steam. We use that to scout out items we are becoming low on or that we need to keep in stock
HueZee_ ✔ [OzPaw]: i see
Rage I Drakemoon: My manager gave my information on you and what items in your possession we are low on
HueZee_ ✔ [OzPaw]: alright
HueZee_ ✔ [OzPaw]: well i do not have much
Rage I Drakemoon: I am not going for just good skins, I am going for everything we are low on
Rage I Drakemoon: I will send you a trade with the items, and then send you a price offer
HueZee_ ✔ [OzPaw]: can't guarantee i'll accept.but you have my attention as you check out as legitimate, and i'm happy to help out if it works for me
Rage I Drakemoon: Okay sor, give me one second
HueZee_ ✔ [OzPaw]: what currency are you intending to purchase my skins with?
Rage I Drakemoon: Whichever you prefer
Rage I Drakemoon: The offer is $30 us dollars
HueZee_ ✔ [OzPaw]: but my skins are only worth $4 market value?
Rage I Drakemoon: The keys are worth 2.50 each
HueZee_ ✔ [OzPaw]: ah you wanted my keys aswell. you just said skins
Rage I Drakemoon: Since we sell so many skins, we can pay a little more
Rage I Drakemoon: Yes, keys are always good to have in stock
HueZee_ ✔ [OzPaw]: just under a dollar more though
Rage I Drakemoon: Did I calculate wrong?
HueZee_ ✔ [OzPaw]: so what website do you use to make cash transactions?
Rage I Drakemoon: Through the site itself
Rage I Drakemoon: That is the quickest and easiest way to make a transaction
HueZee_ ✔ [OzPaw]: is it meant to go straight to my bank account?
Rage I Drakemoon: Yes
HueZee_ ✔ [OzPaw]: because that would mean there are large international transfer fees
Rage I Drakemoon: We will transfer the money onto the site in whatever currency you want
Rage I Drakemoon: You can then do what you want with it
HueZee_ ✔ [OzPaw]: umm. i don't really understand how that works. does the money only exist as currency on your site or?
HueZee_ ✔ [OzPaw]: also. im not sure how you are pricing my items. i am using bp.tf and it has valued the trade offer at $37 US
Rage I Drakemoon: I calculated wrong . But we will pay 40 for the confusion. We can pay on PayPal if you would ptefer
HueZee_ ✔ [OzPaw]: i don't use paypal. and i only trust direct transfer which would be a costly fee for you
Rage I Drakemoon: That's okay, we will do that. We will still be able to make a profit
HueZee_ ✔ [OzPaw]: hmm alright. i will consider your proposal. if its ok with you i'd like to be cautious and speak to your superior Anthony if that will be possible
HueZee_ ✔ [OzPaw]: just to confirm.
