Well, I asked once earlier in this thread, so I'll try again.

I'm not understanding how the "Shop Player" way of doing trades is too easy. It's been my experience that the computer will accept the exact same trade whether it's a result of "Shop Player" or whether you simply click on "Initiate Trade."

Plus, when you "Initiate Trade", this was when I was able to come up with some pretty incredible trades the computer was willing to accept. Usually because it seems to be easily confused when multiple players are involved.

Therefore, I thought by "limiting" my trades to only those under "Shop Player" that I was actually making it more difficult.

But reading this thread, several have said they recommend a house rule be to NOT use "Shop Player." So, can anyone help clarify for me where I've gone wrong in the assumptions I listed above?
