The "Is this a fair trade?" Thread

If you want to know what your pet is worth, please ask here.

New rule:
-If you don't know your rarities at all, please don't give your opinion. Or, if you aren't sure, please make sure you add something along the lines of "I'm not positive, so get a second opinion." It'll keep fights away from the thread.

Ask away :D


No posting saying "Bookmarking/New thread!/etc" it's spam and is unnecessary. Use your bookmarks function.

Please keep in mind that this thread only gives you an idea of whether your trade is fair. Not everyone knows their rarities, and so it is a wise choice to ask for several opinions. Below is a list of members who can be relied upon for good and sound advice.

This thread has been getting more and more people who don't know about rarities posting in it like they do. Have enough respect for the people posting to not post and lead them astray if you DO NOT KNOW. If others who are knowledgeable in rarities have told you you need to learn them better, do that. It is not fair to give other people bad advice just because you think you know. It creates an even tougher job for the people who do know their rarities because they are constantly backtracking and fixing mistakes.

People are basing important trading decisions on your advice. People have been ripped off and led astray by others giving bad advice. It's giving people who do know their rarities more work because we have to back track and fix mistakes. Very rares do not equal two rares. Rarities don't work like that.

Please note that this is not directed at any particular person but a collective group of people who are posting bad advice. More and more people are getting ripped off and it's not fair.

We would prefer to be asked before people decide to remake the thread as we would like to be the ones to remake it when it hits 800 pages. This is not for 'fame' etc, it's to control the posts on the board and update rules as per necessary.

It doesn't matter who makes the thread; it has the same use no matter who makes it.
Though, I do have to say, Tess said that the cut-off is 8,000 posts, so next time you should wait a bit longer. Saving server space never hurts, though! ^^

What about--

A Non-tag, a Non-Jewel, a Non-Coon, and a Coon-Tail

for

A Grevy's Zebra

I don't think it's fair, but I just want to be sure. What would be fair? I don't know what Zebras are worth these days. xD


Any second opinions?
