What's up with trades

Is it just me, but it feels like people don't use the trade stand like it should be used?

For a couple of days now whenever I'm trading something from my trade stand, this is what I go through....

  • Get asked if my trade stand is for sale (clearly not for sale if I'm using it......)

  • They ask to add more pets (when they should be the ones adding....)

  • Either want the item for free or ask for free stuff.

  • Add the same pet or whatever you are trading (what's even the point)

  • FLEXING their PETS (like okay you are rich wooptidoo, I'm still new)
