Thanks Getaklue, (how ironic your name in this situation. Lol)

Yes you are correct but I was talking expansions and right now the BGG 
price is $90= (I know that is value but not trade value) but as of 2 hours 
ago that was the only way to get the expansion, besides trading (so my 
reference to supply and demand)

Trump,

I agree if I am not playing a certain game I don't have a lot of value 
placed on it and may just want it so I will trade the farm, in the eyes of 
the recipient (supply and demand again)
