Ok.... I have a BIG gripe.....

It has pretty much been the understanding in this COMMUNITY, that tips were not required, but were suggested...... requiring them and dictating what amount, means it's no longer a tip! If you want to enforce something like this, then call it what it is, a FEE. The first week we did this when I had the high of 595, only half the people left me anything, and I was fine with that. We're in this together.

So let's see, I bought 19,400 turnips at 96 bells each, and selling at 618 would net me a profit on 10,126,800. 15% of that would be 1,519,020 bells. I would rather LOSE everything, than deal with a bad attitude and be required to pay a certain fee.

Ya, he is coming off quite hostile and would rather not put up with it. Can totally see how this could be bothersome.

Yeah he is right, I thought here was all about fees until someone pointed out to me they were a nice community and they all tipped because they wanted not because if they didnt they wouldnt get to sell over that person town. Its a bit rude to read that in the spreasheet, I personally wouldnt sell there, but hey, I already sold this week.

EDIT: Forgot to say I think charging the 15% is madness, but tipping what you want (10%, 15%, 50%) makes you a good person. The spreadsheet only SUGGEST a 15% tip. Not a Fee.

My exact feelings. Luckily I sold this week for 530 Bells per Turnip :)

I definitely agree.
 
I agree! hey I got 'under tipped' by some people. but I'm not really too mad about it. Its a tip, it happens and other people picked up the slack. and I'll be happy to pay it forward in future weeks. there's no need for such hostility and I don't want any such toxicity in this community, if we notice a pattern and Charity agrees, we can discussing kicking people.
 
I went to SolarSaturn9's town earlier today to sell my 6800 turnips for over 600 a piece. At the end, I went ahead and tipped him about 500k bells (I knew about the 15% that was required). It really isn't a problem to me because I ended up with over 4 million bells in the end. I almost thought I was going to lose out this week because I wasn't able to get into some users' towns to sell due to error codes and whatnot. :p

well that's good to hear it worked out. my concern is merely toxicity.
 
This is the reason why I always check with people before I sell at their towns. I'll usually give a tip anyways but I'm not giving away 15% just because I sold my turnips there. You spent the money on the turnips, you earned the Bells to buy them, so basically they're taking your hard work by taking 15%.
 
Sent in my request! I really like the idea here, albeit I've already sold my Turnips for the week. Yesterday each was fetching 538 per unit, selling at a total of 269,000 bells, for which I bought 500 at 90 per unit totaling 45,000 bells.
