Trading Advice Thread
It can be tough to know whether or not you're trading your pet to get the best outcome based on their value/worth. Luckily, this is a place where you can ask fellow players for their opinions on your trades. Or, for the experienced players out there, you can lend a hand to help others understand what they've been offered. We encourage users to discuss the advice given, whether they agree or not.
COPPA members are encouraged to send a help ticket for advice on trades.
Regular members should only ask here.
