Unfair to the bottom — at a grande I’m not seeing any list pets.

I’m sorry I’m still new to trading but could you explain what a list pet is?

To be brief, the flamingo is one of the most valuable pets on the site. It is astronomically more valuable than most pets. this thread is what most users agree is the best rarity/trading guide on the site. If you're looking to trade it away, you might do well to host an auction for it.

And I agree, this is very unfair to the flamingo; you could get hundreds more pets of the same value as what they're offering for the flamingo.

To put this in perspective a UR Flamingo at 2.5 Nons is at minimum 350 2009 rares. So yes even this bulk is wildly underpay

Edit: it is absolutely wild you have a Ur Flamingo just chilling in your pets without a group I hope you realize now how enormously lucky your pull was 12/18 haha. I hope you enjoy the pet or become fabulously CS rich xD thank you for posting the trade here!! This could have been so sad, I recommend always posting trades for your Flamingo here in the future!

agree with simplydriftingalong & BlueEyedKite - the thread they linked is a really useful resource that most users on this site abide by in terms of trading for higher-value pets.

until 2018, CS had an "Official List", which included all of the vr/omgsr pets that were extremely valuable - hence the term "list pet", or more often nowadays, "ex-list". the community voted to dissolve the List in 2018 as it wasn't being updated/wasn't accurately reflecting values, from what I remember. this led to a lot of inconsistency with trading, since no one knew what their pets were worth anymore, which culminated in multiple members creating their own guides on trading - hence Horror's guide being used. in essence, I'd take a look at the guide that simplydrifting linked so you can get a better understanding of what a valuable pet is/can be :)

the UR Flamingo is worth 2-2.5 nons. 1 non = 100-150 2009 Rares, or 10-12 MA (where 1 MA/Mid Advent is equal to 6-9 09 Rares). a "non" is a term referring to "non-dogs", which you can find on Horror's guide (linked in simplydrifting's reply)

editing to say that at a quick glance, the items are also not worth all that much - an uncommon/rare from release date at most owing to them being from 2010.

Can I get eyes on this? I'm not terribly familiar with store pets vs 09 vrs. And if not, about what would they need to balance it?

Thanks!

Trade is unfair to the top side.

Bottom side
The stores = 09 rare pet + 2010 rare pet.

Top side
The pps dog I think is a 2009 VR pet + 2009 rare pony.
= 2 2009 rares + 1 09 rare =

If you get the gist of this.

Thank you!

Anyone have any idea on this, I honestly have no clue when it comes to items etc.
