    Tape (of any kind) on bubble wrap. Myself and others have posted about this ad nauseum but I guess not enough because the problem persists. There is no need for tape on bubble wrap. PERIOD. Use rubber bands.
    End rant

    I've got this one twice recently...
    My post~~ ISO: Baller Sout &/or Better Half FT: Evil Twin Biscotti &/or Lil' B
    The response I get is this:
    "I see that on your Gots list you have a GI King Henry & CBS. I'd do Baller Stout or Better Half for the King Henry & CBS. Let me know."

    Come on man... if it's not on the ISO:FT post, don't bother

    I don't know about this, scotch tape comes off very easily. Now packing tape is another story. Do the rubber bands pop the bubbles at all? Popped bubble wrap is not a good thing.

    Recipients who don't let you know as soon as they possibly can that your box arrived with contents intact.

    Shitty communication has to be my #1 pet peeve as far as trading goes. I can't stand when it takes people multiple days, or even a week to get back to you confirming the trade, or replying in general.

    in case the overall gist of this slipped by, i want to point out that if someone doesn't get back to you but has edited in "this is closed, barraged with messages, sorry if i don't get back to you," i can't see any reason to be annoyed with them, much less call them out publicly. sure, "it only takes a minute to reply," but it also only takes a second to press refresh.

    People who have been on here for less than a year that I have never heard of calling out excellent traders by name for reasons completely unworthy of a call out. Yeah that really annoys me.

    I had to use a box cutter and 8 throwing stars to get to the beers you sent me. Insert emoticon of laughing face here. I tape the crap out of everything and am quite grumpy as well. FYI to future trade partners - Pack however the hell you want to get my beers to me without breaking.

    This.

    I pack crazy - lots of tape. Since *I* am the one on the hook for maybe $100 worth of beer - if you want to bitch about me taping the shit out of bubble wrap - put me on ignore and don't trade with me again. I pack shit to make it. You can lecture me about rubber bands, whatever - eat me. =) My goal is for the trade to succeed. Be a princess and cut the tape, thanks.
