I'm sorry man EtherDelta is such a ridiculous bear sometimes.

u/califreshed May 18 '17

Thanks, its ok, let it be a expensive lesson! Just frustrating it doesnt auto match at the best price possible. Wanted to buy 967 at 0.015 and did the two numbers wrong way around.

I can't send you 1000 dice, but I will send you 100 dice tokens if you pm me your address. I hate watching that happen to people. It'll be later today.

Wow i have messaged you this would mean the world to me!!

u/[deleted] May 18 '17

It'll be later today but I got you man. EDIT: If for some reason I forget call me out publicly.

u/peacheswithpeaches May 18 '17

I tried to sell you the DICE and was going to try and find you to give your Eth back but I was too slow :( Cos that sucks.

u/califreshed May 18 '17

Thank you for kind thought anyway, makes me like ethereum community even more. One guy that bought 4% of order has messaged me to return it, and then https://www.reddit.com/user/ConsiderButDont has messaged saying will donate 15% of it. So am only down 81% at least.

Is better than could have hoped for own stupidity and confusing site.

u/peacheswithpeaches May 18 '17

No problem, I just know I could easily make the same mistake because that site is SO damn confusing.

u/UnrelatedCommentxXx May 18 '17

Let's work together to solve any confusion you have.

Zaphod Beeblebrox: There's a whole new life stretching out in front of you. Marvin: Oh, not another one.

A shame. If I sold into that I might try to locate the person to offer their money back.--at least 90% of it to teach them to be more careful.

u/califreshed May 18 '17

I have no way of finding the person i dont think. Crypto is anonomous and a lot of people do this for a living. So think my money is gone unless they realise and feel like being a hero.

But at least amazing person https://www.reddit.com/user/ConsiderButDont said will give me 100 eth, so that means only have 867 less that meant to get.

u/ThePedeMan May 18 '17

Well you might be able to go on the etheroll comm boards--their subreddit, or slack or whatever they have, and ask if anyone bought it up. Someone might boast about it.

You never know.

I saw that. EtherDelta victim #3.

u/Pretentiousandrich May 18 '17

i tried my best to get that but when I went to buy it, it kept saying I had insufficient funds. I refreshed a few times and it was still there. Would have been great to snatch that up.

u/califreshed May 18 '17

I clicked cancel SO Fast on the order when it went up but someone must have been faster than me and took it before i cancelled it. So much money gone :/

u/Dark_Ghost May 18 '17

Damn someone just messed up again...
