Local Only Trade (LOT)

[The10mmKid]

Pardon me for my newness . . . . . .

1) Do I wait to ship until I see my grantee has shipped?
2) I assume I need to post I shipped before my granter ships?

Lastly, I'm finding shipping is costing more than the suggested 48oz of local brew.
Is the norm more like a 6-pack or a few bombers, etc?

Thanks,
'da Kid

Shipping is the worst part, usually.. the least painful way I've found is FedEx Home Delivery with no rush. Takes 3-4 days normally, so no big deal.

Go ahead and ship. We are on the honor system at this point. I hope we do not have any issues with people not shipping.

I use FedEx and created an account which gives me a little discount, I believe. I usually ship ~15lb boxes and the cost is ~$20.

I've traded with people in Alaska. I ship USPS flat rate. $17 to ship a large flat rate box to AK.

Just a note that it's illegal to ship alcoholic beverages by USPS.

I've been trading for 4 years now so I'm well aware, but thanks for the heads up! It's technically not legal to ship alcohol through any shipping company, but we all do it. Lol

I don't ship beer, I ship live yeast samples.

Enjoy! Wish I could have fit more in the box, but shipping anything other then flat rate to AK is way too expensive! Lol

Did anyone fulfill this yet? I can cover this if NY is Northeast enough for you. I would need a couple days to get to the beer distributor and put a package together.

Put your info up Rick!

 

[GrainToGlass]

I'm loving this idea! Looking forward to jump in soon.

 

[Rick91981]

Put your info up Rick!

I'm in NY in the tri-state area (NY/NJ/CT).

Styles: Anything but sours.

 

[GluStick]

My son finally permitted me to ship the package today. Pm sent with tracking info. Cheers!

I will get this, it probably will be next week before I ship.

I will post an area in a bit, this will be a BIF since I lead things off.

 

[sudbuddy]

I like this idea a lot. PM me if you are interested in Chicago area beers. I think everyone needs to try Apex Predator at least once in their life

 

[Rick91981]

Replied to your PM. Thanks!

 

[pointcity-homebrew]

And the area is Jersey(surrounding areas)

Anything goes.....

Jump on in.

 

[BigPerm]

Thats the damn truth.

 

[Rick91981]

10mm - the package is dropped off at UPS and headed your way! You should have it by Thurs or Fri. I will PM you tracking info.

 

[pointcity-homebrew]

Bumping.

This will be a BIF package, not for me since I received the first shipment.

 

[pointcity-homebrew]

Local shipment from N Cali. Wow, thanks @btbnl ! Never had any of these, including Pliny.

Cannot wait to try the offerings.

[sudbuddy]

that Heretic beer should be pretty special too. Rumor has it this Jamil guy is pretty good at brewing or something

 

[The10mmKid]

Package arrived today from Rick91981. Thank You, I'll open it tonight after work.

Package to jtd 419 is in FedEx's hands. PM with tracking sent.

You're welcome, I hope you enjoy them!

 

[The10mmKid]

Lookie, lookie what Rick sent me:



That Kelso Industrial IPA will be the finale. I'm an Industrial Maintenance Technician and the can feels like the black oxide tools I use. (Machine oils and chrome wrenches make for a slippery day)

How'd Rick know . . . . . and Thank You.

Cheers,

Most excellent Alaskan sampler to greet my return home - thanks @GluStick!

 

[pointcity-homebrew]

Current grant bump....

 

[1977Brewer]

Current grant bump....

Who's up? Will TX fit the bill?

 

[pointcity-homebrew]

Yes, I started things if so this will be sent as a BIF to the New Jersey area, I believe Tejas will work. If you want, pm me for the address

 

[ThatVideoKid]

Finally! I've been really wanting to share some stellar local NH brews! I'd be glad to send the next one, that is if you guys can trust me without 100 posts

Side-note: working in shipping and receiving occasionally has its perks! Don't have to make it an errand!

Edit: I went shopping for beer tonight and decided to pick up some goood local stuff for the next person! (1977?)

 

[jtd_419]

Awesome package of ohio goodness. I've never had any of these and the jackie o's have been on my want list for a long time
