If anyone has item knowledge to help with this trade, as I'm not sure if the values of my items equates what they're giving.

By trading conventions, it seems rather unfair to the top. Not only are those VR pets from 2009 (generally the older a pet is, the more valuable it's considered to be, so a 2009 VR is more valuable then a 2016 VR), but also the malk dragon and dog are pretty popular.

On the bottom side of the trade, you have some nice pets, including that space event dragon, which could trade much higher than a regular 2016 rare due to demand, but I feel like all the pets together are not quite enough to trade for even one of the pets on top, unless your trading partner is OK to overpay for that dragon.

That's very unfair to you, because the elf rat is low T3 so supposed to be worth about 2MA, which go for 20 old rares or 10 old VRs. They're currently offering a little less than half of what it's worth, I think. However, rats often trade below their list value. So you definitely should get more pets for it, but it will often trade for more like 1.5 MA I believe

That lil guy's worth fluctuates a ton since its value hinges very heavily on demand, which means it's kind of worth what people are willing to pay for it. I've seen trades or the puppy cocoon go up to 150C$, but I don't think every user trying to trade for it will be willing to pay that much. The Pets With Confusing Worth Thread, for example, lists two trade examples for the puppy cocoon, one for 150C$, the other for 35C$. The easiest way to figure out what users are willing to trade for it is to run an auction, but if you'd rather not go through the trouble, the store pet's a good offer, imo. It's worth 2 old rares or ~60C$.


I would say it's unfair to the lion. The quantity of rares on the bottom side is nice, but lions generally trade really well and 2009 VRs are worth about 2.5 old rares. The bottom side could be worth about 1.5 OR taking the quantity into account (that's a guesstimate, trading newer rares for older tends to be more guesswork than hard science). So I would assume the top side is offering to overpay, but especially with newer accounts, it's always polite to double check c:
