The "Is This a Fair Trade?" Thread

[Sarin]

This is posted as someone's trade rules. I was going to trade with them but was confused by their terms... is their system fair?

""HOW TO TRADE ME
ME............................YOU
2 VC 10'.................One Common 09'
2 Common 09'.........One Uncommon 08'
2 Uncommon 12'......One Rare 10'
2 Rares 09'.............One VR 08'
2 VR's 10'...............One OmgSR 09' ""

Well, it depends on the pet and what people are willing to pay... but in general, no, none of those look fair. For example, 2 uncommon '12 pets might be worth a '12 rare or an '11 uncommon; they're certainly not worth a '10 rare.

Nope, super unfair to you!

Firstly, OMGSR are always worth many VRs, and that sort of system doesn't apply to them. Secondly, the rule of thumb is that a pet from one year is worth 2-4 pets of the next lowest rarity from the same year. This is doubled if the quantity side has pets from a year after. This doesn't always work out right, but here's the "rule of thumb rarity chart"

(Using '11 and '10 as years, disregarding month rule)
1 VR '11 = 2-4 R '11
1 R '11 = 2-4 UC '11
1 UC '11 = 2-4 C '11
1 C '11 = 2-4 VC '11
1 VC '11 = 2-4 OmgSC '11
-
1 VR '11 = 4-8 R '12
1 R '11 = 4-8 UC '12
1 UC '11 = 4-8 C '12
1 C '11 = 4-8 VC '12
1 VC '11 = 4-8 OmgSC '11

Again, this is what most people go by, but with demand differences and monthly differences, along with personal rules and values, it can vary. Hope I helped!

DEMAND wise i think its pretty even because those warrior cats have really realy good dogs but your lolita dogs also have a lot of demand so get a second opinion
