Does "for trade" mean they ain't got no money ?

I think it means they have a item that they would like to trade for another item.


i think this is what it means as well. for instance, i may have an amp i dont use much or dont care for, lets say a Carr Rambler for arguments sake, and i might also be looking for a Telecaster.. someone else might have a telecaster they dont care much for and are looking for a new tube amp. these two people might come together and say "you have what i want, i have what you want, they are equal value, lets trade!!".
 
Not necessarily. I was selling and buying over the past few years pretty easily and about 9 months or so ago, I can buy but can't seem to sell anything over $800. Offering a trade might drop something my way where I can at least break even if not come out on top.

Interesting, I think the economy is going soft for sure.
 
What I don’t understand is people who quote a higher trade value than a cash value. It’s worth what it’s worth. If you say your amp has a trade value 300 higher than it’s cash value then my Guitar you want to trade with also has a trade value of 300 more. So what is gained exactly? It’s pure fucking nonsense. You can easily assess the cash value of what you have and what the other person has. Trade and the money differentials are the same whether you use your imaginary value or not.
