Sure you can look at historical cases but I just gave two recent cases that value retention very differently.
No, you didn't. One of them was a player with positive value of his own. The other was a player who was thought to be washed up and unable to play. When the player values are different, of course the trades are going to look different.

At the end of the day it's a negotiation between two parties and there's no defined value it's just whatever someone's willing to give. One team always has less leverage or more desire to get a deal done.
That's true of every transaction in every market. Doesn't prevent anyone from coming up with a predicted market value.
