I understand if you wanted it to keep as a part of your lair but if it was fodder and you also wanted it for fodder that's just part of the game and I apologize :c

Maybe set your AH filter to only show dragons above a certain price? If you're looking at dragons under 5kt/g for a hatchling, 7kt/g for an adult, yeah, it's going to be snapped up in seconds, but I imagine if you set your filter to not show you anything below 10kt/g, they won't be bought faster than you can react.
ETA: Also, speaking for myself, I know if someone contacted me saying they really wanted a dragon I had sniped to keep as a permanent dragon, I'd be happy to sell it to them for what I bought it for.

They're not jerks. It's just another way to make money, and a valid and common one at that. Ultimately, there's not much you can do about it besides, as mentioned above, cut out the cheap dragons that tend to be bought quickly.
It's only rude and offensive if they're targeting someone.

I love pings! Don't be afraid to ping me; I tend to miss a lot of replies, even if they're right after my own post, so please, please ping if you want me to see!

So, offer to buy it for the going market price? Since they're flipping, that's what they're going to sell it for right?

Help I'm trapped in a signature!
Maybe you can open a link to a new tab for the fodder dragons you want and PM the owner of the parents for a future baby?
The fodder floor is pretty volatile, and there's quite a few pretty babies there too, rip :c

You can always go find the dragon if you remember its features! I actually had a similar situation with
this girl in particular. She stuck out to me
so much in the few seconds I saw her and she was fodder price, but when I went to grab her she was snapped up. I chased her down and the person who sniped her was lovely enough to trade her to me for what they paid.
If they did buy it to resell for a higher price though, yeah, that's pretty sucky and I'm sorry. If they don't get bought up, maybe message the person and ask them if they'd be willing to sell her to you if they plan to exalt her.
EDIT: Ah, I just saw that you look for oldies. Bit of a different situation than I thought :'D

So, I'm a jerk for using a completely valid playstyle -_-?

Doesn't sound very "playful" when you're using a frowning emoji and are clearly upset about what happened

@Samanthor I messaged that person and had no such luck, unfortunately. I collect older dragons (4-5+ years) and I try to go for unbreds, which are sought after.. so I think people flip those the most.

Ah, I didn't realize you were talking about the older dragon market. I don't have any experience in that area -- I thought you were talking about the fodder market.
