This kid would not take any more cards for  {Domri Rade} it's a bit weird


I'm pretty young and the first time I whent to FNM I had no idea that "these pieces of paper" where worth any thing at all. then I traded with a guy who told me the prices of the cards he wanted from my binder and the prices of the ones I wanted from him. I was happy to trade my 2 rares and 1 uncommon for 5 or so 50 cent rares from him. I didn't even like the card I was trading... :P I still don't. So I'm just saying maybe they don't like the cards they're trading and they would rather the other one that there getting at some point there gonno see the value in the cards. And my final words of wisdom are :P :There happy with the trade, let 'em trade.

So long as the trade is within ~5-10%, people don't nitpick. I've learned the players who like to rip off noobs and generally help them with trades to help improve a deck if I have seen them play, as well as even things upand show them how to value cards out fairly

Well as long as the people they're trading with is not purposely trying to rip them of.

Since the beginning of time there have been fools and people who choose to take advantage of those fools.  Thus the proverbial phrase: 'A fool and his money are soon parted.'

Step in and help when you feel it's appropriate.  What else can you do?

I always tell kids "pick out more cards from my binder. Please."

Agreed👆 Taking advantage of someone else's ignorance is pretty base. There is a special place in hell for players like that where they are  forced to play decks built around {Shelkin Brownie}.  Their only hope for redemption is if someone will trade them for it. And even an 11 year old wouldn't touch THAT.
