People almost always under offer on auctions to get the best deal. Auctions are tricky. Like, I just got an over-offer on two pets I'm auctioning, so I had them send the trade right away. Most people aren't going to go out of their way to get a coontail if they think they can win with a bid that is unfair to the other person.



Hmm really? I haven't seen very many people even looking for the Coontail though... Even on trade threads. With other pets I usually see people looking for them but I haven't on the Coontail. And I've seen quite a few people auctioning or attempting to trade Coontails....


I've seen plenty of people looking for them. I don't know what you've been looking at.

So, Jeweled or Diabolic, is a Nick Cake dog and a Light Leopard fair for a VR Sock Dog and a Bone PPS?

QFT. ^^ The Coontail's the 5th rarest dog on the site and is a pretty fair swap for a July PPS (I've seen that happen, too).

It isn't always about the level of want either. The coontail is - as agreed on by majority of the rarity followers on the forums - the fifth rarest dog on the site.
Adding to that it is a dog, and dogs are considered more valuable than any other pet on this site with only a few exceptions.

The Mint horse is much more valuable than a purple UR horse, but it is not anywhere near the value of a coontail these days. Try a nonjewel at most actually.

Thanks. Anyone else?

♥ Love is patient, love is kind.
It does not envy, it does not boast, it is not proud.
It is not rude, it is not self-seeking, it is not easily angered, it keeps no record of wrongs.
Love does not delight in evil but rejoices with the truth.
It always protects, always trusts, always hopes, always perseveres.

This confuses me. Was it sarcasm, or was it your opinion on the Mint Horse VS. Coontail?

Mmm... It's probably quite fair. Maybe a tiny bit unfair for the cakedog side.
