Operation: find the shittiest deal on beer Advocate

[smithj21541]

That is such a stupid FT list. He's got plenty of stuff in there that would/could draw interest for a good chunk of his ISO list (obviously not for DonQ, Blauw, etc.), but then he fills it up with all kinds of crap, a lot of which would be extras at best in the kind of trade he's looking for. Plus it creates a huge cluttered mess that no one wants to read through. Here, I'll fix it for him:

"ISO: (in no particular order)
Armand Seasons (missing lente and winter)
Zenne
A&T
50N4E
Blabaer
OGV'S (2012 and older)
Lou Pepe Kriek (2010 sticker and older)
Lou Pepe Gueuze (2010 sticker and older)
Fou ('12 and older)"

FT:
3F – Armand & Gaston
Bottle Logic – Fundamental Observation b2
Cantillon – Kriek, Rdg, Gueuze, Iris, St Gill, St Lam, Vig, LPF, Fou
Casey – Leaner, various Cuts, Family preserves
Funk Factory – Frampaars, Framrood
Goose Island – Prop ’13, Rare ’15, Vanilla Rye, Cherry Rye
Goose Island Brewpubs - Cthulhu, Nutulhu
Hill Farmstead – Civil Dis 14-17, Flora Plum, Madness & Civ #1
Jester King – Atrial, MvB, Nocturn, O&P, Shatrial, Fen Tao
Lost Abbey – Veritas 013-016, DDG b2
New Glarus – VSB
SARA – West Ashley, Westly, other club bottles
Side Project – AdF, Fuzzy, Merci, Noir du Ferm, PN2, PN3, PN4, Smooth, SdF, SdF pinot, Tete, The Scribe
Three Floyds – BA Moloko set, Ronaldo, Murda’d Out
Voodoo – Man Bear Pig

If he'd posted that, I'd guess he'd have a better chance of getting a deal done.

Maybe you stumbled across a new business idea...

I mean, all of those aren't impossible or even improbable. But when you include stuff like last two it just makes it look like you have no idea what you are doing.

Wut?

This guy always posts ridiculous trades in the local BA ISO:FT (Southwest) and they always hurt my head.

So much this. This is why list trades are garbage most of the time. Just make an offer. Do lines or points even, but to post your whole cellar is just a dumb idea.

Haha, I know this guy. Saw him at the release and hung out a bit. Seems like a pretty nice guy. I'd agree in that he needs to take3-4 off that list.

Sad thing is he must continue to find victims or he wouldn't keep it up.

 

[2plums4one]

I know from experience that a lot of people lose trades on a regular basis, just because they don't know value and don't like a certain style. I saw someone wanting to trade green man sours (18 months in barrels with fruit) for TH hops. I just don't get it. Harris Teeter is right down the road and there's no shortage of simply orange.

Are you really losing when you get what you want though?

Some people don't give a **** about "value", they care about trading for what they want.

You MAYBE could get FVM 1:1 but you're not getting Handjee 1:1 no matter what Iowans are doing to skew beerblackbook.

These picture is shelf tuber. I can get at many market store. Is good for pampushki. Can trade maybe for two small red only because is feed family more potato. Is good every day potato for put in borscht, but I prefer yellow finn potato for mash with kolbasa sausage.

When pack potato make sure put in with box of american kraft dinner. When delivery man shake box looking for feed family, he is hearing small dry noodle what is no good for feed family.

Jeebus, I'd forgotten how much I'd enjoyed that potato thread. Made my year, and that was even before the trading scene really **** the bed in the past couple years.

Maybe you have me mistaken? I rarely ever post in the local section (IP) on BA.

If he wants to get his first whale, he'll probably have more luck on the Craigslist Casual Encounters section than he will with that offer.

I also find the use of 2 prepositions in a row rather irksome.

Hold on.. isn't this board here to point out ISO:FT's in which one side has a higher "value" than the others? Sometimes I honestly don't understand you guys.
