Yes this was unfair. Your dragon cat is worth an 09 rare without its slight demand.

Honestly, everyone values year gaps differently, so it's kinda up to you and your trading partner.
I consider a 2-3 year gap with uncommons and under to be fair, with anything 2015 or newer. Some people don't. I think, realistically, there are probably very similar numbers of pets out there from those years, so I don't see why we need to double things for the gap jumps.

Here's what I will say: If I received this trade and the macaw was a pet I wanted, I would accept it. The cat will likely be common, and it's within that 3 year gap, so it evens out based on my personal "rule". Others' opinions may vary.

You said on the last page that you disagree about the eggs worth, those are established trading values though. If you count the eggs at a late 2009 rare each(look at the item guide) then their side is worth 12 ‘09 rares plus two items I’m unsure about.

Your side is worth 8 ‘09 rares, as bugbaby already said.I’m not aware of any specific demand for your pets other than the usual sitting cat demand. Tess horses generally have good demand as well, so that shouldn’t be an issue.

If the eggs have an established value, then I do apologize. I was not under the impression that was a consistent going rate for the eggs, as I have not previously found them going for that in my personal trades. I didn't recall that they were listed in the item guide when I responded, unfortunately.

I mean, you’re always gonna find people that don’t know their items worth or just don’t care about them. I think that’s more likely to happen than with pets.
I guess that is danger of trading pets for items, but if you look around enough it shouldn’t be too hard to trade them since they are some of the few items actually listed in the guide. I personally get really confused about items from 2011-2014

Pineapple = non
Angel Advent = roughly 3 mid advents

Their side:
Roughly 10-10.5 mid advents (6 T7 dogs, fairy goat = 1 mid advent, seahorse = 1.5-2 mid advents, both ex T1 advents go for 3-4 09 rares each, malk cat = 4 09 rares).

Nons are 10-12 mid advents. If you value at 10.5 or less, the pineapple alone would be enough. If valued at 10.5+, they'd need to add. Demand of quantity is up to you and your trading partner.
