Would one consider $5 similac cheques to be in the HV/Rare/Hard to trade for category? I'm aware there are $10 and $15 cheques out there as well and that those obviously trade for more but in the end there is a limited supply of these coupons because they are only sent out at random by the company.

Thoughts?

20$wm giftcard for 9x5$ Agropur cheese coupons?

No 10 x5 of regular for $5 gc these could be considered hv if so $10 tops but I think $7.50 in gc is fair 1.5x the amount

I think the 5s are pretty much worth $5 reg that stuff is expensive it wouldnt cover a quarter of the cost

No its not a fair trade

Dont think its a fair trade either ....not at all. I think 10.00 would be generous and more fair considering it being a hv highly wanted coupon but 20 is a huge rip off and really taking advantage.

Hello All,
After communicating with several people about proper trade guidelines, I agree with you that my trade was not correct.
I was incorrectly considering the coupon as an FPC because I have been getting my cheese products for free with it ($10FPCs = $5GC).
But I was told that because it doesn't actually say FREE, technically it's only a HV coupon. According to the guidelines (1st page):

$10 worth of HV coupon(s) - same in HV coupons / $3 GC

So as I understand wouldn't an equivalent trade be 7 x $5 Agropurs for a $10GC??......Or 14x$5 for $20GC??

Any advice would be helpful, as you can tell this is causing undue confusion.

I would suggest a fair trade to be 8 x$5.00 to be a trade for a $10.00 Gift card.

So now I'm confused, as this is a lot more than the $10 worth of HV coupon(s) - same in HV coupons / $3 GC stated rate. Does this mean the guideline is incorrect?

Whenever I needed to look at the trade rate to make a trade I usually look at it as a guide line to evaluate the value of a coupons but in the end it depends on both traders what the agree to. Just my take on things no offence to any one

I think most times a $5 coupon can get you free product but it can also only be $5 off a $20 item (similac for example although that may be more than 20) there is a fine line between reg hv & fpc that some may see a coupon more reg than fpc. As long as both parties agree I see no issue with what may be agreed upon. That being said at no time would I consider trading a $20 giftcards for any number of coupon hv or fpc I think a $10 trade is fair and safe for both parties.
You do not have to agree on a trade. If the trader think $10 is too much or not enough for any number than No hard feelings with passing.

Thanks for everyone's input on how to trade these $5 Agropurs. I've always used the posted guidelines, but it's good to know what other traders' general expectations are....and until now I didn't know there was a difference.
Also, @Anna Michele, you're right.....at the end of the day, it's about trading the coupon or GC for a value you're comfortable with.
Good advice all around.

Hi all I am wondering are the McCormick save $5WUB2 consider HV or FPC or a regular coupon for trading. TIA. I was trading for them previously like regular coupons and a some traders were very generous and was not even trading them at face value.
