What does BA abraxas go for?

Are any of these recent trades getting done? The KH+ type? The BADL for 3x abraxas type?

 

I was able to trade a CW 15 + Peruvian Morning to match $4$ shortly after both releases. I managed to land one before the trade value has skyrocketed luckily.

 

I traded away three of my six bottle allotment. I believe I sent out regular Abraxas in each trade as well.
I received things like T25+, BA IST+, Wanderer+. I was happy with each trade I made and we kept things close $4$ overall. All of my trades were done within a few weeks of the release, fewer people are willing to trade what they have left now.

I think/know Perennial will handle the release much differently next year. If they reduce the allotment per a person down to two per person in order for more people to get a bottle or two and I'm lucky enough to get some I know I won't be trading it away, its just too good.

 

Apparently a BCBVS++ isn't enough to pull a BA Abraxas. I got crickets.

 

A lot of you guys saying you got crickets, you may have been offering stuff that was available here. King Henry was bountiful in the stl metro area, people stocked up. Id be willing to bet there is under a few hundred bottles left, if that. And not all of the owners pay attention to sites like this.

 

Supply and demand, I suppose. supply is down from when it first came out, demand is the same if not higher... so some of the offers being thrown out now are reflective of that.

I'll try trading for batch 2, maybe batch 3.

 

It's interesting how top notch one-off beers that will never be produced again are apparently not enough to land one of these, even though it appears that BA Abraxas will continue to be produced indefinitely. I think it's obvious in situations like these that seekers should step back and wait for future releases. Life flies by fast. All you have to do is blink and we'll be ten batches into BA Abraxas. People who traded away crazy shit to land a Black Note 750 know what I'm talking about.

 

I herd King Henry was rar everywhere tho

I wasn't.... lied to wuz I????????

...Just kidding, I know it wasn't, I picked up a case when I was in Long Island on business.

 

try telling that to my boyfriend. he's trying to trade away his god damn cellar for one when. philly just got perennial distribution. hell, nobody knows if it'll even be brewery-only release next year, do they?

 

From what I hear, the batch will be double (~1400 bottles) in 2013 and will have limited distro...very limited.

 

Like 3 2013 kbs

 

I wonder if Kate the Great would even be able to land one. Not the beer, but the real Kate the Great.

 

"Barvo" indeed

 

Had a recent negotiation for BA Abraxas and the guy tells me he wants something additional to the BCBVS i was offering. I asked what he had in mind and he tells me Kuhnhenn Blueberry Eisbock and Jackie O's Rum barrel Oil of Aphrodite for his 1 BA Abraxas. I told him he was being too generous so i would add Rare, DDG and Blauw just as a thanks for his generosity.

 

after seeing some of the requests for BA Abraxas, I'm very glad I only had to give up 2 of the Voodoo barrel releases for a bottle. 5 minutes after mine went through someone was asking for all 7 of the Voodoo releases for 1 BA Abraxas...

 

I have had multiple trades fall through when even offering exactly what was requested. I'm sure that many have been a victim to the price of admission increasing by the minute or the auction style posts. Hell i even had one person bmail me to notify me that he now wants to trade his BA Abraxas after declining my prior attempts. He goes on to tell me he posted an FT and please let him know if we can work something out. I agree to the exact trade and find out a day later from his post that he traded it to someone else. Didn't even have the courtesy to contact me to tell me this after HE was the one asking if we could set up a trade! I am now resigned to just wait for the next release. This sh*t is just getting Regoddamndiculous!

 

Same thing happened to me 2x. I posted up an ISO and was offered exactly what I was looking for then a day later after some striniging me along got the. I decided to keep my beer reply. I guess when the stock market is on the rise its harder to get someone to sell.

 

Sorry man, but I had to do what I had to do. My 3-74 W-L trading record is nothing to brag about at the moment.

 

My record isn't much better and i've already traded away two left nuts for this godforsaken beer! I'll be damned if i'm gonna trade my right one! Well maybe for multiple BA Abraxas'.

 

Had a guy I traded a King Henry to (for a 4-pack of Abrasive when it was up on France44) try to bend me over a barrel for a BA Abraxas PRE-TRADE. Killed most of my remaining faith in trading...also boosted my cynicism 100 XP.
