Is this fair?

Thanks in advance!! :D


Unfair you by an early '10 rare or '14 store pet



Rarity wise it's unfair to them by around a Nonballoon, demand wise I've seen the mint horse and flower go for underpay so I can't say trading up to the flower would be anything more than just climbing the list. It usually goes for around 2 sorbets, but I'm not about the horse

Thanks in advance!


Personally... I would not take it. The Joker can swap for Nons, and the BEG is usually swapped for 2 Sorbets or some cases Nons... those two alone I have been able to get up to that tier with the UR Bee, and the July PPS does not have the best demand. So rarity wise it is unfair to theirs, but your pets are more profitable.
This is just an opinion, so I would get a second opinion.

It's totally up to you whether or not you feel it's worth it. The July PPS doesn't have great value for trade downs typically - it can be a bit tough to find a fair offer (though it can be done!). The joker I typically put right around a non - that's about what I paid for the one I got just recently. :) The BEG pretty steadily goes for at least its list placement - sometimes more. I'd say in terms of rarity it isn't terribly far off - though it is unfair to them if you only consider rarity. Since there's quantity on your side and you have more pets with more demand it complicates things. I'm always hesitant to give a solid yes/no on a trade like this because I think that the amount of overpay they're offering is pretty reasonable. I'm not sure you could get BETTER with the bottom but the pets on the bottom are easier to trade off - it's all gonna be a matter of who you're trading with. :) Personally… I like the july PPS so I'm odd in that sense but even saying so… I would probably stick with the bottom side if only for the quantity aspect. Either way they are technically overpaying and it's up to you - good luck making your decision! :)


This is along the lines of what I was thinking too--I've heard of people struggling to trade off the July PPS, but I never stop getting offers on the Joker, BEG, even the White Malk dragon. I also like the PPS (^^) but I think personally, since I don't have a ton of List trade fodder, that trade mobility is more important.
Thanks so much for the advice! :thumbup:

Anyway.

It's unfair to the tiger in terms of rarity - however demand definitely plays at least some part of a role. The value of the quantity side of the trade strictly with list placements is a bit more than four nons. That being said - I know the cerberuses are going for quite a lot right now and the set demand adds to that too. In my opinion if I had the tiger I wouldn't accept just because I think that the tiger could get more in terms of rarity - but if the other user really likes the pets and knows how to play demand well they could still be pretty happy with this trade.
So long story short - it is unfair to them but it's by no means a terrible offer. :) I personally wouldn't accept if I had the tiger but everyone has different preferences! Good luck getting it sorted out!
Have a good day y'all.

Thank you very much for the advice!
Could I perhaps get a second opinion before I make a decision?

I'm no good at 1-10 ratings but the green VR dog on their side is overpay for the cheshire on its own - so I'd say it's a pretty good bid! :) Their side is worth about a candy cane horse or peppermint bun tier advent list pet. :)

C$ can be a little tricky - I'd say it's probably a bit unfair to you if you really break it down. The halo is quite rare and worth a lot but you'd have to be valuing it at a high september or low main list for that trade to be exactly fair. It kinda depends how much you value C$ (some people tend to value it a bit lower than the guides when it comes to rarer/older pets and items - in other words they feel that older pets and items are worth a bit more C$ than the guide would say). If you like what they're offering and don't mind overpaying somewhat I'd say it's not a terrible trade. But I do think that technically it's a bit unfair to you. :) If you knocked about 30-40 C$ off it would be a lot closer.
Have a good day y'all.
