Good question, now I haven't done THAT many trades yet. But I have traded with a few veteran SCer's, and from what I've gathered (from trading with them) is that you trade based on your value to the item. Now, I'm not a stingy person, I'm pretty liberal... FOr example My FPC Axe has a max value of $11.99, but I would probably value it at $5-6 dollars. Being that it IS an FPC, I wouldn't trade it for $5-6 of low value coups, I'd want to trade it for $5-6 worth of HV/rare coups or 2 times the value in low-value coupons - does that make sense?

Do any other Veteran SCer's have any input on this?

It really depends on why I want a particular coupon. If I don't want to use my axe coupon I may be willing to let someone else enjoy it for the right deal For example last spring I gladly traded a FPC with similar value for 5 x $1 off folgers because I was able to add them to stacks that enabled me to get several free cans of coffee. what is a low value coupon to someone else may be highly coveted by another couponer. If a trade seems too low then 'no thanks' is in order. This weekend I will actually pay for folgers for the first time since last February

I think I should've asked you the question on this thread.. http://forum.smartcanucks.ca/173581-...-worth-canada/

Bet it would get more feedback

I'm not trading, yet. But this is how I feel.

One man's treasure is another man's clutter.

JUst because some-thing has a negilable value to me doesn't negate it's value to some-one else.

Thanks Angel :) it just saddens me to know that people would actually make alias and diff accounts just to steal coupons. i'm sure its only 1 sour grape in the bunch and the majority of us are awesome ppl. So for everyone that makes good on trades and trains! you rock, those that do this should be so ashamed :(

Hey kidmom,
send me your address, I'd be glad to help replenish your coupon inventory with some of the coupons I have. I don't have much, bit I do have a bit to share.

I would trade a FPC for a FPC or FPC for HV coupons in return - if I was trading a FPC for low value coupons that I do need it would have to be many to make up for a FPC

Just my opinion
