RE: Trading perfect IV female Eevee (timid) - EeveeBailey - 10-16-2016
DANG IT, someone sniped our trade!! 
@Eclair, let's try this again shall we?
I came back online to check (because I was getting impatient for my Eevee, LOL) and saw that had happened...
... so... I'll be on for a little while, if we want to give this another shot. Luckily I have another Adamant male Jerbolta, but I think it would be safer if we did a direct trade next time...

did you set level required as 1 to 1 and asked for specific gendered?
RE: Trading perfect IV female Eevee (timid) - EeveeBailey - 10-16-2016
Gender, yes. Level, no. But the Eevee I got was a Lv 1 female anyway, so setting the level probably wouldn't have made a difference.
I honestly never imagined that someone not involved with this trade would want to give away a female Eevee for a Jerbolta of all things... it would be nice if one could set up trades across GTS with specific people...

Well, if you put up a 5IVs, people ARE gonna snipe it, breeders like myself may not because we have bred a lot already and would rather snipe a bad trade so we could release what we get back. But breeders who are starting out and/or haven't bred a lot will look for high IVs for easier breeding time...

True... *sigh*... and to their benefit, the Eevee does have 3IVs, so not a complete waste of effort. She's just not what I wanted; given the low female rate of Eevees, it'll take a VERY long time to get a 4+IV to switch her out with.
Hopefully @Eclair will come online soon and we can make another go at this with the direct trade route.
UPDATE: After venting my frustration a bit on Facebook, the person who made the trade came forward and apologized, and offered to trade back! So @Eclair, whenever you're online again, I now have the Jerbolta back that I was going to trade you... direct trade seems to be down for me right now, but if we're both online and keeping a close eye on GTS, we might be able to get away with a second attempt.

@EeveeBailey. I am online right now. I will go check the GTS.
Hi @Eclair! I don't have it up right this second, but I will go put it up right now. I wanted to make sure you were online first to minimize the risk of it getting sniped again.

Given that you mentioned we're on a three-hour time difference, I'm not surprised LOL.
I got my Eevee -- thank you so very much for her, I love her!!

@Eclair: I just hatched this sweet baby boy last night... could not have done it without the Eevee you traded me! Thanks again!!
