Cause right now I'm feeling a bit cheated

Based on TRL and C$ conversion side by side you can see things don't add up. The higher up on the list you sell, the more "value" you lose out on. Three sorbs are worth a non according to the Rares List but 1 Sorb = 4500g and 1 non = 6,000g. You lose out on 7500g value because you decide to sell 1 non instead of 3 sorbs, for example. The C$ conversion is wack (despite the reason why it's scaled like that, I can respect it to an extent) and for the most part I would not suggest following for high main-lists.
People tend to value the highest main-lists in their "non" value to accommodate for this. For example, a Sunback is worth 2 nons but easily goes for 3-4 so it's not unlikely to see one priced at (3x6000) 18,000g plus.it ensures you get the value the pet is worth.
The same is true for the UR Tiger or Skelebun. They both easily get at least 5 nons so it would be better to sell for a minimum of 30,000g instead of selling for maybe 10kg and losing out on 20kg value that you would have gotten if you had just downgraded to 1 non and sold that. I wouldn't say people are "adding on" demand, they're just covering themselves and making sure they get what they were otherwise entitled to, but that's just how I see it. It's also why many people don't commonly sell high lists because they don't get what they're really worth technically.
Honestly, the scaling does unintentionally cheat people out of higher main-lists value because with a bit more work you'd have easily double or triple the amount depending on what list you're trading. I'd take it as a learning curve for Off-site Trading and use it to your advantage in the future.
