The Trading Advice Thread (Previously FTT)

Trading Advice Thread

It can be tough to know whether or not you're trading your pet to get the best outcome based on their value/worth. Luckily, this is a place where you can ask fellow players for their opinions on your trades. Or, for the experienced players out there, you can lend a hand to help others understand what they've been offered. We encourage users to discuss the advice given, whether they agree or not.

COPPA members are encouraged to send a help ticket for advice on trades.
Regular members should only ask here.

This thread is owned by and will only be reposted by staff.


    Rules for posting:
    • Do not post "mark" or other empty posts
    • Remember, everything is an opinion
    • It is okay if you disagree with the advice/opinion given by another user but please make sure to be respectful and polite
    • Do not reveal the names of users you are trading with, keep this private to protect everyone's privacy and prevent harassment

    Rules for seeking advice:
    • Post only once per page
      • Multiple questions can go into a single post
      • You may repost your question onto a new page
    • Use the [share trade] feature
        Go to the trade page and click on the trade you want to view.
        Scroll down to the very bottom of the trade.
        Directly above the 'Accept', 'Edit', and 'Cancel' buttons is the share trade link.
        Image
        Copy that link and paste it into the message or post where you want to share the trade.
    • Do not offer rewards in exchange for advice
      • This encourages false advice
    • Do not do something to make your post more visible
      • No attention-seeking text sizes or colors
      • No decorative images or gifs

    Rules for giving advice:
    • Give educated advice
      • If you do not know the answer, do NOT reply
    • Advice MUST come with an explanation
    • Saying only 'fair' or 'unfair' is not allowed
      • Do not post if you cannot fully support your reasoning
    • Do not advise or comment on trades you are participating in
    • Do NOT contact a user directly criticizing their advice
      • If you disagree with someone's advice you may explain your opinion on the thread as long as it is done respectfully

    Tips for using this thread:
    • Ask for multiple opinions!
      • It's ok to continue asking for advice after you've received an answer
      • It's ok to give a user advice even if they've already gotten a response
      • It is ok to disagree with someone's advice and use this thread to discuss it, provided everyone stays civil, polite and respectful
    • Report posts which are spamming the thread
      • Even if you aren't sure, it never hurts to report; staff don't mind taking a look to make sure the thread is a good resource for everyone
    • Say "thank you" to those who help you!
    • Research before trading or giving advice
      • CS staff cannot reverse trades which you were happy with at the time

UR Strawberry Shortcake is worth 15 MA, and UR Hollydog is worth 15 MA + Red X PPS worth 3-4 MA for a total of 19 MA on their side. So they are overpaying by a bit value wise.

I think you need to add how many MA these trades are.

The first trade is only 5.5MA
The second one is like 5.3MA

The grilled cheese is 15MA

I've got this trade I've been needing help on. I think it's fair value wise? but I'm struggling demand wise and if I should hold out for a better trade. I've been getting trades left and right for my seal pps and as soon as I list it for an auction I stop getting trades for it :what:
