Operation: find the shittiest deal on beer Advocate

[jdd419]

It tells me a lot about a beer when i see more FT than ISO.

Was thinking the same thing. Why would you want a VR+ when FO has vanilla in it. In that logic FO is better so why trade it? I don't understand beer trading so maybe I need a better understanding.

Speaking of FO...

I can definitely understand wanting to swap something you have multiples of for something you don't have so that you can compare them, get some variety, etc.

Of course, that's not usually what's happening when someone with FO b2 is asking for VR+.

I just looked up FO, I see you could buy tickets and get 3. I thought it was a wait in line all night for 1 or 2.

Your post above is even funnier though. HoD is what $100 and only a handful aren't MC?

I didn't say it.

Dudes that went to the dinner walked out of there with 15 bottles. Add a significant other, and that's 30 bottles. Holy ****, you could build a ridiculous cellar.

This is one of you guys right?

It's just a small detail but I like how he applied the asterisk to everything in his ISO

My favorite is the Cable Car Creek. Must be the super .rar version.

Mispelled kriek, but spelled Quijote right?
The comments on that would've been stellar.

I hope this is a serious post. I really do.

Maybe the best part of this is (there is so much to choose from) that he implicitly presumes all 4 of those lots have the same value.

 

[ficklenicholas]

I thought there would be much more awful FO offers in here, because Cali going to Cali. Saw some horrible offers on Facebook last night.

I guess I should be asking for the world instead of giving them away in yesterday's DDT.

Explain to me why this is so terrible? I mean it's probably not generous, but I don't think it is so off.

This place should be for really terrible offers, not just ones you don't agree with.

I'd say it's extremely far off... Whether or not it's terrible is subjective, I guess.

That's why I don't trade anymore. Haven't got a clue to valuations and don't have the time or cares to keep track.

 

[Iliketurtles]

Why is it extremely far off? I still don't get it. Just because people with FO are trying to get crazy **** for it doesn't mean that is right.

Oh I agree. I didn't say it was right. But, he's probably not going to find anyone who's willing to take that deal.

LOL a Huna for an FO doesn't seem extremely off to you? If you look at what FO has been trading for, then this is quite comical. Other reasons why it's off: rarity, price, bottle count/limits, BA vs. Non-BA, supply & demand, venn diagram.....

Would you trade an FO for a Huna? If you will then I will do that multiple times with you. When other people are offering beers like Rye BM, VR, Fou Foune, etc....then yes, it is extremely off or just lowballing the **** out of the person.

so how many FOs do you have?

 

[Wino1]

If FO is so amazing, why are so many FT currently? With the majority of new releases, the 'value' is higheste right after release and then falls. Wouldn't be at all surprised if that's the case with this second batch of FO. I"ll want til next week to try landing one.

I think there's much more this batch than last time and a matter of everyone trying to trade it all at once before people realize there's much more than advertised. There will be a few people who got 30+ of this release between dinner tickets (if they take their friend/spouse plus the online sale.

Totally agree. That's why there are so many FT and people are asking for what b1 went for before the cat is out of the bag. Again why I'll be waiting for another week or so. Isn't that your strategy ButlerinSD?

 

[masterovkhaos]

I think the FO people are being ridiculous, but offering a single Huna for a bottle is definitely lowballing. Idk how you could think otherwise. Besides, FO b1 was 6pp and had people getting cases at the dinner as well, and look how that turned out
