sometimes its just not easy to trade, no matter who you are dealing with. there are all kinds of variables that can make a trade not go smoothe. the main thing is the trade has to be "fair", but that can mean different things to different people. unless you are trading a bunch of base or low end cards, take the time to look at completed listings on ebay, while some of those values can be flawed, if there are several sales, you can make a baseline of what the value would be.
