Just out of curiosity, how does everyone determine trade value on their cards where Beckett does not provide a value due to scarcity?

Determining Trade Value For Cards N/A?

eBay for everything.

Why would trade value be higher than a sale value? If a card sells for $25 I'd trade it for a card that sells for $25.

So if you have an N/A card that's average sell price is $25 you would trade it for $25 Beckett trade value? I'm just trying not to get hosed in a trade because I'm a rookie...

"Trade Value" is some made up fantasy term used by people who use Beckett book value when trading. Often I see Beckett book value used when a card has a very high book value in relation to how it actually sells. Sell value over book or trade value all day everyday for me.
Sell value and trade value are the same to me, other wise I set a value I want for it.

Why can't beckett price these items, seems the masses are able.
I don't think sell value and trade value are anywhere near the same.
If I have a card #d to 20 with a NA book value I go to ebay and see it sells for $20.00. I'm not going to trade it for $20.00 book vale ever. It's kind of up to you then what you want to set the BV or you can see the sell value of the card you are trading for. If my card sells for $20.00 and the other trader wanted to set a BV to trade for I would double it and say $40.00 BV in return. And I agree beckett should be able to price cards even as low as 10 PR
