Did any of the parties lose any money?
Did any of the parties not receive merchandise that was traded for?
Did any of the parties receive grossly inferior or misrepresented merchandise?
I think that about sums it up.
I really don't think this should have become a GB&U thread in the first place.
Trading is between 3 and 10 times harder than just using good old cash and cash equivalents. Everybody likes money. Not everybody likes every knife.
You can expect to waste time in negotiating trades as a part of the way the trading game is played.
Why I would chime in on this lame thread, I have no idea...

Unless I'm missing something, what I see is a deal in progress that was abandoned when Dann decided to sell/trade his knife to someone else w/o notifying Nakano that he was withdrawing his offer. OK, what did I miss?
