    1: I have bomb variants (xmas, regular, noir, and bible belt) also have founders breakfast and backwoods; I would like to get some zombie dust. What would make sense.
    2: what is a troll?

    Thank! I'm new and really enjoying trading and meeting new people.

    the bomb variants are most likely to pull the zombie dust. the founders stuff is available everywhere and most people won't bother to trade for it. i would just make sure that the ZD is fresh from whoever you're getting it from.

    a troll is someone who posts in a thread just to mess with people, or to derail the original posters thread. they serve no real purpose other than to be a jerk. :slight_smile:

    1) FBS and Backwoods most likely won't help land zombie dust because its available in wherever zombie dust is distributed to. The others should help you land some and would be more than fair.

    2) A troll is someone who says something in order to get a rise out of people. And has no value behind his post.

    Thanks! I'll see what I can get for my bombs!

    To add, I personally wouldn't let go of noir or xmas. I think Bomb! and Bible Belt are more than fair on their own.

    Do you think $4$ is fair or am I going to have to suck it up on my end and do 1 for 1

    $4$ is fair. Zombie Dust is not rare by any stretch.

    Definitely do not go 1:1 here. ZD is $10 / 6 pack... You should be sticking close to $4$ maybe 4-5 ZD : 1 bomb or a variant...

    Would depend on how much he paid for those Bombs though, here they are typically $7.99-8.99

    Yup. That price point is what I was basing the estimate of 4-5 ZD : 1 bomb...

    Yeah its 8 bucks a bottle here. It's really easy to get, here (ok), so I never really know what I can get for it.

    Haha you are right, I had to rethink that! With all the Bourbon County madness lately I've been thinking of everything coming in 4 packs

    I see this statement all the time. The only place you can get ZD@ $10 for a 6 is the brewery. I have never seen it sold for that in stores. Is this how people base $4$, on the cheapest possible price even though most people can't get it at said price? I'm not saying he needs to give up more or even addressing the trade really, just that its a tough to find it at $10. Obviously prices vary for most beers depending on where they are distributed, but always seems everybody says ZD is only worth $10 and I have to disagree with the statement.

    I agree.. i got into it with a trader that told me that i gouged him for ZD at 15.99/Six pack in a $4$ trade, but thats what i paid for it.. and it varys where you buy it. The brewery is 2 hours from where i live so i rarely get it for $10 a six pack. So now when i do a ZD trade i keep the reciept and if i get hell for it, i can scan a copy and email it and then also add the original reciept with the box.

    $4$ should be based on what each party involved paid for said beer. You're right, it may be more expensive outside the brewery. And you're right, prices vary for most beers across the country....

    I'm simply giving OP an estimate here based on the brewery price. In the end, the trade is fair if both parties involved are happy with the deal. That's really all there is to it. $4$ on trades in just a general, logical, starting point. Good luck with this one OP!

    Thanks for the help everyone. Crickets so far but hopefully I get some traction.

    This is a hard time to put out ISOs, because the Bourbon County furor is still at full strength. If you don't get anything after a couple days, you just may have to repost. As they say, "All it takes is the right set of eyes." :slight_smile:

    I figured. Maybe when I repost I'll add my xmas bomb to get some traction.

    I've definitely heard people paying closer to $16 for a sixer of ZD more often than not. So based on that, I'd think that 2 of your Prairies is a fair offer for a 6-pack. That said, those Prairie beers aren't very hard to get either, so it may not be something people jump on right away, but I'm sure you can get it done.

    Can anyone who has been to the brewery recently confirm that ZD is still sold there for $10/6? I had a trader recently who told me it was $13 now, and just wanted to check on the accuracy of that.
