Fair trade?

I think the Nauti is probably worth a tiny bit more, but honestly, I consider a trade fair if my needs are met.

Honestly it depends on the year of the TF in my opinion. They both can be had for around $135 on a good sale, so let's just say they are worth the same brand new. Then divide the life of the seat (6yr Nauti, 7yr TF) to get the per year cost..... multiply the per year cost by how many years are left and you get a rough estimate of it's value. But again, it's really only worth what someone is willing to pay.

If the years are the same DOM then i would say yes, it's a fair trade because the TF may have a longer life, but it also has been "upgraded" whereas the Nauti has not.

So there's my :twocents:

Well- to me it matters more if I need the other seat. If both of you need the others seat I would trade evenly if DOM of the seats are within a few month of each other... but that is just my opinion:)

Yep. I once traded a nearly brand new Regent for a 4.5 year old Roundabout. I didn't need the Regent, I wanted the Roundabout. Fair trade. I got what I wanted, she got what she wanted. Value is all in the perception of the parties involved.
