but you will agree that for a trader to do well, they need to come out ahead in the majority of trades...and coming out ahead is in the plan (offer low amount to sell at higher amount)

I collect championship rings. They are hard to get are quite rare. If I am dealing with another private ring collector like myself, I try to trade items that are a fair trade. If I have two rings from one year and team, I will sometimes even come out a little behind, and be happy, if I am able to build my collection. I realize that rings are rare and I can't go to ebay and order up the ones I need to finish my collection.
When I trade with full-time ring dealers, I realize they need to make money and look to come out ahead. That's fine, I can choose to make a deal or walk away if the trade is not to my liking.
