Pretty much the only items I've got that are actually worth anything at all are:

50% off Sam & Max Complete
33% off Skyrim
2 coal

Anyone fancy a little trade involving some/all of those? I'm after coal and lovely indie games :)

I might be wrong, but a very rough estimate is about a dollar depending on the game.

That was what I thought, too, but a guy told me in an earlier trade that I was crazy for trying to trade 3 coals for Swords & Soldiers or Defense Grid (around 2.50$ each), that they could be worth a dollar yesterday but right now I should give 6 or 7 coals for a 3$ games.

Then, he just was a random guy, but it sounded legit. There are lots of souless people with multiple accounts, and thanks to today's free achievement they must have addead a LOT of coal to the market.

My gut feeling is that he was trying to rip you off. Anyone else?

Theoretically, 7 coal should barely be worth a single game, since you can craft 7 of them into a coupon or a game. The thing is, there is also a lot of people getting gifts they don't really need or want, or people have spares of other games, and they just want to get rid of them, so they trade them away for a lot less coal to get rid of it faster.

It probably varies depending on the community too.

Considering the chance of getting a coupon instead of a game, a game should be worth well over 7 coal for sure. But the market is a bit odd right now.

It seems that people are tend to be more generous and less "i'm gonna get mine, so fuck you."

Skyrim already gone I'm afraid.

Anyone desperate for 25% off any one City Interactive title? PM me. It's cluttering up my inventory and there's no way in hell I'm double dipping on Sniper: Ghost Warrior...

My friend just decided the whole steam trading game was too much work, so I got a lot of coal from him. :D

I have 9 coal anyone have any games to offer for that?

Sorry, already have Eufloria and not much interest in Two Worlds 2.

Thanks for the offer though.

I just assumed you'd like Eufloria based on your username :p

Well, I have Left 4 Dead and Terraria, which I'd give for 7 or so each. I also have HL2 and both episodes for 9 (3 coal each).

EDIT: Just saw your list, so I guess Left 4 Dead for 7 is all I have to offer haha.
