    FYI - I was checking my Facebook status and saw that Liquor Mart in Whittier had multiple 4-packs of Heady canned 7 days ago (as of 58 minutes ago). Don't know the price or limits. I'm just passing this on...

    They need to work in the "transportation costs" into the price

    Lol what a joke. Are places so desperate to get customers that they have to illegally sell out of distro whalez for $$$? Not to mention posting about it on the internet. Genius.

    I called when the post was 57 minutes old and was told they were all out. This is a co-worker's local store and she says they get out-of-distro beers all the time. They'll put them out on shelves (or FB, apparently) until they get down to just the last few and then they'll save those for a once-yearly sale where they get rid of all this stock. She says people go NUTS for that sale and if this is the kind of stuff they get, I can understand why.

    Mmm. Nothing like year old illegally distributed, probably unrefrigerated Heady.

    Why would you boastfully support an illegal practice? Just trade for it! It's not like shipping alcohol without a license is illegal :slight_smile:

    Have you ever traded beer? Are you a distributor? Where do you draw your distinction of what illegal practice is ok and what isn't? Just curious, because when you say "we" you certainly aren't speaking for the portion of BA's who have traded beer.

    Hey all, I'm new to this trading thing. I'm flying in to SNA today from Montreal and I have some HT canned 6 days ago. I'm willing to trade if you are in the long beach area (till Saturday) or the Oakland area after. I'm jumping on the plane right now so I will get back to you when I can.
