    Trade includes items and rares


    And this one?
    Trade includes 200 C$ and a T5 Ex-Advent List

    If not fair, what would need to be added on either side?

    The first trade,
    Flowerpot is .5-1 and bmd is .5

    Their side is 1.5 max and yours is 2-3

    Second trade

    The dog tag is 1.5-2, typically the lower end, and the cat is 2-3
    The c$ doesn’t cover what they would need to add imo

    Thank you all for the advice on the other trades.

    Am I overpaying by a lot with this trade and this one? Pretty sure I am rarity wise (and I know I definitely am for the second one), but what about demand?

    Is this a fair trade?

    Edit: the last 2 bunnies will be removed regardless wether it would be a fair trade or not

      zodiacs trade for 2 2009 rares ea., so a full set would be worth 24 2009 rares.
      your side has:
      - 4 2009 vr = 8 2009 rares
      - 3 2010 r = 1 2009 r + 2009 uc
      - 6 2011 r & 2 2011 uc = 4 2009 r + 2 2009 uc + 2010 uc
      - 4 2012 r = 2010 r or 2 2009 uc
      - 2013 r = 2011 uc
      - 40 c$ = roughly 2010 vr = 2009 r
      total = 15 2009 rares + 2009 uc + 2010 uc + 2011 uc
      (4 2009 uc = 2009 r so i've just added up corresponding values).
      so your side has a little over 15 2009 rares worth. so demand-wise you are underpaying, but rarity-wise, yes, you are overpaying.

      as for the second trade, again:
      - 4 2009 vrs + 3 2009 r = 11 2009 rares
      - 16 2010 r = 8 2009 r
      - 11 2011 r = 2 2009 r + 3 2009 uc
      - 3 2012 r = 3 2010 uc
      - 3 2013 r = 3 2011 uc
      - 2 2014 r
      - 5 2016
      - 2 2017
      total = 21 2009 r + 3 2009 uc + 3 2010 uc + 3 2011 uc
      could not for the life of me find the bw in the archive so i haven't factored it into the total, but this roughs out at 21 2009 rares + add. again, i haven't done 2014 onward because the space between those rares and 2009/2010/2011 uc get bigger and bigger and we would be getting into vc/omgsc conversions.

      please get a second opinion in case i have gone wrong along the way, but from my understanding neither of these trades are fair in terms of demand. otherwise, drastic overpay on rarity terms.

      edit: bw is 2008 rerelease, worth 1 2009 r + 2009 uc



      2015 rare = 2011 vc / 2012 c.
      you're overpaying. your side is worth a 2011 rare + add.
