Intro & Background

Hello! My name is Emily. I'm an experienced trader, and after answering literally hundreds of mails from users asking what they should trade for or what their pets were worth and seeing the countless daily "What is my pet worth?" boards, I thought this guide may be helpful to quite a few people. Before you start reading, please take a peek at the "Disclaimer/Rules" section further below. You will get much more benefit out of this guide if you understand what you are looking at and how to read it. Also, feel free to neomail me if you need to, but do not do so without first reading the aforementioned section.

And just so everyone is clear:

This guide is NOT law!

It is a guide, with guidelines as to what pets can commonly trade for. I am not telling anyone what they can or cannot trade their pets for. You can trade your pets for whatever you please. All this is designed to do is give traders a database to look at if they aren't sure if an offer they got is fair, or what types of pets are fair to offer on.

Last Update / Mailing Details.



Last Update: April 25th, 2012.





I'll try to make this simpler about mailing me for help. From now on you can mail me any trades for help as long as you have advertised and you include your offers in the mail. It also helps if you include intentions; IE trade up to an ____, keep, etc. so if you're not going down the right path I can redirect you.

I've gotten a lot of requests recently to add draiks and krawks to the page due to their deflation. I don't have any disputes with the fact that some cheaper colors fit within the page but; I really can't think of a way to add colors such as an eventide draik or a robot krawk without making the page terribly confusing since the more valuable ones aren't even close to fitting within my value markers. If you request for me to do this, please include ideas of how to do it as well (:

Sorry to shake up the status quo, but I really don't feel my tier labels were clear so I've changed them. Pets will now be labeled using the terms Very High, High, Medium High, Medium, Medium Low, Low, Very Low. Much more to the point, don't you think? ;) For those of you who liked the old system, sorry! Most people didn't and I understand why. Organizationally, it was a nightmare. If you're confused, here is a very vague description of each term.

Very High - Most Plushies
High - Most Pirates, Alien
Medium High - Most Royals, Usuki, Extremely popular lab available pets
Medium - Most popular lab available pets
Medium Low - Most unpopular lab pets
Low - Colors with a very low paint brush value, very low popularity, or a combination of the two.
Very Low - Colors with the lowest paint brush value, lowest popularity, or a combination of the two.

Eventide

Eventide is still quite new and has not stabilized yet. Trades for eventide seem to range from Medium High to Medium but being that it's so new value is fairly subjective so there aren't typical trades for it yet.

Faerie



With the release of faerie paint brushes from the plot, faerie worth has dropped a bit. They're still liked, so it hasn't been *too* drastic. They've gone from a Medium High to the current value of Medium.

Other faeries rest currently between a Medium and Medium Low value.

Pea chias are very popular because of the aesthetic appeal and because they are an avatar pet. They are a High valued pet.


These fruit chias are somewhat popular and are a Middle value pet.

All other fruit and vegetable chias are Medium Low to Low value depending on the trader. Some people despise them and value them with christmas, others love them and have decent offers for them.

Species is not much of a factor for grey pets, they're all worth about the same. The difference is not enough to make separate sections over. They are about a Medium value.

Halloween



Halloweens are fairly popular, these halloweens especially. They are about a Medium High value.


These halloweens are worth almost as much as the first listed halloweens, but they are less popular making trading them difficult. They range between a Medium High and Medium value.

Ice


Ice pets are very un-popular and hard to trade. They are about a Medium Low value. Some exceptions:


These two ice pets are a little more interesting and more visually appealing than the others so they trade better. The ice hissi is Medium High and the ice bruce is Medium.


The ice bori was only avaliable through a toolbar promotion a few years ago. Because of this, they are slightly rare. They however are not popular so the value is not as high as you'd expect. Most people ask for High or Very High pets, but in reality most are traded around Medium High level.

These mutants are a Medium value.

All other mutants are quite unpopular and hard to trade, at a Medium Low value.

Pirate


Most pirates are a are Medium High value. However, ALL pirates have a shifting worth at the moment due to the new daily and have not yet stabilized, meaning their value is highly fluctuating. Species differentiation will be added when the color is stable.


Pirate buzzes are always way oversupplied due to the buzzin avatar so they tend to be hard to trade. They are a Medium High value.

Plushie


There are some plushies that are slightly more expensive than others, but as a whole there is not too much of a difference to list. Most plushies are valued about the same, which is Very High.


The plushie buzz is the only plushie that has a significant value difference. They are also way oversupplied due to the buzzin avatar. Like the pirate buzz they also are hard to trade and are Medium High

The robot hissi and ogrin tend to be the most popular robots. They are Medium High and easy to trade.


These robots are Medium. They are slightly less popular and valued. They trade for other Mediums mostly but robot value has a history of being sporadic and non consistent as a whole.

All other robots are Medium Low and relatively hard to trade.

Royal


Royal is a hidden tower color and non zappable, so the price of getting one is always the same. It has a pretty stable worth because of that, around Medium High. Species is not much of a factor with this color. Some species are more/less popular and are easier/harder to trade, but they are all worth approximately the same amount.
