Changing the trade value when the horse is almost across the river is probably a bad idea. ---

I’m in the same boat as Snafu. I have a throw that was used twice, for no more than a total of 10 minutes. Still has box and original string never used. Didn’t retail for over $60, so I’m out. ---

Didn’t retail for over $60, so I’m out. Okay, my opinion is that if it’s something new or of close value (Shutter, Minute, Rally, Strix, etc) then it should be allowed, but if it’s like a Token (what Snafu had) then that doesn’t make the cut in my opinion. ---

I got burned horribly a beat maverick and a myy n9 that doesnt have an axle. The n9 was scavenged for the bearing and the o rings and just sits in a box. And the maverick isnt played at all besides being used for environmental throwing. ---

I think it’s up to the OP. I believe $30 is a bit low, but I’d probably still do it If that was the minimum. What I give is gonna be worth more then that, I just don’t wanna be burned. ---

> [@BenM36](#): > > I don’t think you put enough faith in this system. The throws should all be in good condition, and if they’re not and you get shafted they get a bad rep AND usually someone is generous enough to send yo another gift. Maybe but that doesn’t change I’m not comfortable over the $30 mark. ---

I honestly didn’t think about doing more than one throw. I can do $60 that way I guess. ---

> [@sparhawk](#): > > You could just do a $45 limit or send one of those along with some kind of cheap plastic If you sent out a yo-yo that you valued at $60.00 and received three or four yo-yos that retailed at $10 to $15 you’d be okay with that? This is the problem with these exchanges in my opinion. Lets just wait til Christmas maybe? Joey (yomagic) has run a great exchange in the past. ---

> [@sparhawk](#): > > If you really wanted to do it that way I’d be up for pairing people so there’s no bias > I could just get a list of the throws and addys attatched to those throws and try to pair up accordingly but I think that’d take away from some of hte mystery and fun. It also holds people to sending those specific throws in case they fealt like changing it up at the last second True. However, it would also help prevent people from being unhappy with stuff and feeling like they got shafted. It I had enough feedback to do this, getting something of the same value that I sent would be ideal for me. ---
