I'm still seeing red, but the only person I can be mad at is staring at me in the mirror. I found my first sos Euro drop (2 handed sword) and was stalling it. Several hours go by and me not being the most patient person in the world decides to drop the price from 1.2 mil (it's only a lvl 8 ) to 1,005,000.

Well it sold withing 30 seconds and I was soooo happy! :) until.... I check my gold ... :? WTH??!! FUBAR!! I sold it for 100,500 DOH! :banghead: :banghead: I'm such a noobcake :x :oops: Somewhere on Alexander there is a very happy euro player. Please, enjoy the sword and don't pull the same noob move I did when you sell it :banghead: :banghead: :roll:

It falls under the dumbest thing you've done in SRO category. What, you've never done anything dumb in SRO? :wink:

Well, something like that happens to all of us.

I remember selling a SOM protector piece for 150,000(I could've sold it for more), mainly because I didn't know what the hell I was doing. :oops:

You live and you learn, I guess. :D

Lol, don't be sad, it's only an SOS. I found my lvl 243 SOM glaive with good default crit (11 I think), then suppose to have someone try to get it to +5, but THEN I sudden or was too hasty and traded to a wrong person... a beggar I'd say who kept on pm me for gold, then traded me without me checking for the name (yeah i'm stupid).... so now I'm pissed, b/c I worked my str glavie so much just to get to taht lvl to start using it and go back to sp farming... now I gave up on that char -.- after 2 months playing it, and I don't want to be like those losers who goes on and buy gold online... so after nearly a month I decided to make a wizard and... start all over again :(...

Much to grief over.. but no point anymore lol... I was just too stupid.... that SOM was my rarest one I found so far other than an SOS lvl 1 prot with 3 100% blues default.

hehe
yeah happens to all of us..

missing zeroes, even 2-3 of them... usually just a typo, but sometimes cuz we're thinking 100K or 10mil or something... we forget how many zeroes are supposed to be there...

either way... it's one of those things u just have to live with... find yourself a similar deal from someone else's stall and cheer urself up =]

Thanks for the kind replies and no thanks to the very few flaming ones :D
Today is another day and so far it's better even without the sos. It was indeed a bloody typo. That'll teach me to pay closer attention eh!
BTW, I'm a gal irl as in game :P $500 gold on Alexander for the first person that correctly gueses my real age! :D

Oh, and I like the way you subtlety drop that you're a girl into the topic. You should write it in your signature though.

Its ok to make mistakes, as long as you learn from them. Dont be so harsh to yourself either, things like this happen all the time :)

@IrishWitch I'm guess you are older than 20 :wink:

+1.

Once again, TBH, the point of these forums is to share stories (whether good or bad). If we're only going to talk about LOLZ BOTZ AND HAKZZZ or whatever, well, you're on the wrong forum.

I've done something like that before. Meh, it happens. It's only a game =P and at least it wasn't an sosun.

One of my unionmates got an sosun spear drop (right after the new cap). So, to show it off, he put it in a stall (maxed out price, meaning 999,999,999). Someone bought it (since the going price at this time was about 1.5billion.

Anyway, it turns out it was another person in the union.

Then...turns out the same guy wanted to sell his sos (from the 70 cap). Instead, he put his sosun....

Curiously, no one bought it over night...lucky for him =P

I bought some level 32 SoS Dual Axes for 1.5 Mill instead of the 15 the guy meant to put them up for. I resold them for 25 Mill ^^
