I have a Nicolas of Antioch and wanted to know if it would be a fair trade to trade Nic for a
Daniel Promo or Goliath Promo??




Thanks,

The thing about Nicolas is his value is very subjective. Daniel and Goliath both have much better playability. But since more  will come every year into the market and Nicolas isn't being distrbuted any longer, then Nicolas has better collectibile value. So it would be fair if the person with Daniel or Goliath was more interested in the collector's value.

Does a NoA have better trade value than Faithful Servant Promo??

But on tlg it says they're both 30.00

I agree with Pol because If someone wanted to trade me a FSP for NoA I would be astounded. TLG is good for trading but it has flaws in it just like every system because Ken goes by availibilty for the card FSP and NoA are about the same difficulty to get but people value FSP higher because it is more useful. No offense meant to Ken.

From my experience reselling, FSP's sell value is generally $18-$25 and Nic's is generally $16-$20.
Once in a while you can snag a FSP for $15 or Nic for $10.
However, you do have to consider two other things:
FSP is valuable to both collector and player, while Nic is only valuable to a collector.
FSP has been decreasing in value while Nic has been increasing.

On a side note, Goliath and Daniel have been selling at $25-$35, so they are higher valued atm, but will decrease a little slowly over time.
