    As far as I could tell as long as you have them added to the cart, you can take your time with the billing info. My wife and I both had no problems and we took our time once we had them in the cart.

    That is because BPT removes from a total when you add to cart, you can sit there for almost an hour (counter is 15minutes from adding to cart) and still have the bottles if you somehow lost your wallet or your dog stole it and ran outside playing keepaway.

    Edit: 15min, I had Bruery in my mind which has a 60min counter.

    15 Minutes. That's why if you strike out in the first 5 minutes, always wait 15-20 minutes for the carts to expire.

    Drink your Bavss. Most people just bought it to trade for lesser beers with more hype.

    BA has five different forums dedicated to nothing but trading, yet almost every special release thread devolves into a talk about perceived value rather than whether a beer is actually good. Good times.

    Exactly! People should just wait to try/enjoy their beer and if they want to trade let the market develop. Create scarcity if they want to land something that really is worthwhile of what you have in hand. Just my opinion.

    I think some people are really into the value of the trade and some are not. I wouldn't hesitate to trade a bottle away for something else I wanted even if that other bottle didn't have the same perceived trade value. All I did was spend 1 minute on a computer and pressed click to get my bottles.

    I think that is what you guys are up against in your efforts to preserve value. Some of us just don't care about that.

    You're right. And people complain about trading limited for shelf beers. Well its not on my shelf so how else am I going to get it. $4$ always works for me. As you said, took no effort to sit on the computer to buy these.

    Think BAVSS + Bomb! would trade for a DB Huna? I'm considering putting that out there.

    You could always, you know, trade your shelf beer for their shelf beer.

    How about I trade what beer I want and you trade what beer you want?

    No chance. Need to replace that Bomb with something(s) that is(are) valuable.

    I am both curious and scared about Creamsicle...other ones look fantastic though.
