Hey, I'm on the other side of the trade. This is how I valued the pets:

Cheshire (2013) - 5MA
Alpaca (2013) - 1MA
Kitsunes (each) - 2.5MA, so 10MA total
Corgis (each) - 1.5MA, so 4.5MA total
Total: 20.5MA.

My side:
2015 store - 0.5MA
UR Phoenix - 20MA, based on the Successful trade Thread, where people value it at 1.5 to 2 nons (15 to 20MA), but always goes for 2 nons (20MA) in the trades from the past year.

Let me know what you guys think :)

Blue Balloon Bunny is worth 5 to 7 old rares 2010/2011.
The store cat from 2019 is worth 2 old rares (2010/2011)

1st trade:
You offered around 5 to 7 times more the worth of the bunny (Roughly 35 old rares on your side).

2nd trade:
You offered 3 to 4 times less the worth of the bunny.

A bit hard to judge when it's this bulky, but your pets are a bit older than theirs is general so I'd say it looks fine if both sides are okay with it.

Just curious about this one!

Top is overpaying by about 2 MA per Horror's guide (top = 10 MA / bottom = nonballoon 5MA + 3 MA). However, lots of people are seeking trade-downs nowadays, and the pets on the bottom side have decent demand, so it's not a bad deal. That might make up for the value disparity.


The Nonballoon dog is True Date, so that alone could easily cover the gap of 2MA you mentioned in my opinion :)

1st trade:
Their side: 1MA + 2.5MA + 2.5MA = 6MA
Your side: BMD worth 5 to 7.5MA for re-release. Seems to be closer to 7.5MA however. So I'd say the above side could add 1.5MA.

2nd trade:

Based on Horror's list
Roadkill PPS: 1.5MA
Your side: 1MA + 0.25MA

So you'd need to add 0.25MA (say, a very rare 2009) to get to 1.5MA and if they value true date as the same as re-releases.
