Alright, so apparently I accidentally started some kind of pseudo-auction with my last post on here, since now I have three offers on the pet that I'm not sure I even want to trade currently. But just for my own knowledge and peace of mind, would anyone be willing to let me know which of the offers is the best?

Ah, really? I'm confused, I thought it was fair but if it wasn't I would've guessed it unfair to me. I'm pretty bad with C$ but if a current 2013 store pet, 20C$, is worth a mid/late 2010 rare (is that correct?), wouldn't that mean a mid 09 rare value item should go for more than 25? Or am I thinking about it the wrong way?

You can't exactly value current store pets in C$ values based on what you need to currently pay for them. The new store pets are worth 20C$ each, but mid-late '10 rares are worth less than that. Store pet values and C$ pet values can't be linearly converted. Nevertheless, I'm valuing the items on their side as C$ because they're still available in the store. Altogether, it's worth more than a mid '09 rare-value pet/item is worth.

Thank you. :thumbup: I sort of figured, but I'm never certain.

1. Unfair to you.
2. Unfair to them technically. :3

They'll be worth less than a UR Apple. Next time, please ask the "How much is this pet worth?" thread.
