In Elvenar there are currently four scenarios for trading that one must distinguish between:
In 1) and 3) there is no trader's fee/tax – so it is safe to state that a fair trade of the same tier good is at a ratio of 1:1.
As for 4)… It's more of a last resort option if you have no one to trade with and/or can't produce the unboosted goods yourself.
In 2) there is a trader's fee/tax of 50% added to the amount the seller demands in return for their offer which the buyer must pay. (ex. 100 planks for 100 marble + 50% tax = 100 planks for 150 marble)
There have been many threads within the forums discussing whether the tax is balanced, sensible, and what types of trades are fair amongst discovered neighbours, trades within fellowships, and the list goes on…
What I want to know from you through the poll above and the comments below is:
What do you call a fair trade amongst undiscovered neighbours?
Do you pay the tax yourself by lowering your demanded goods, have the buyer pay the tax, or do you split the tax evenly, or perhaps something else?
Thanks in advance for voting and/or leaving a comment!
P.S.: I fully agree that the choice can be situational based on how urgent one requires a good, but I want to know what you generally consider the fairer trade ratio and if you don't mind: why?

1) Trading amongst discovered neighbours within your trader's range
2) Trading amongst undiscovered neighbours within your trader's range
3) Trading amongst members of your fellowship
4) Trading using the wholesaler
