    He already drank your beer(s). He loved the bourbon/apple brandy Amun ra on 4/6. So he felt plenty right. Unless he has another one to return to you after trading for it.

    Ok wow look at the drama in this post. Well I didn't read the entire post, but seems like I'm being called out as a bad trader so I'll have to provide my input and post a timeline.

    1. I agreed to do a $4$ 2-2 trade for 2 bottles of hyrda for 2 bottles of veil. Jag said he rather have a different 2nd bottle so I sent a list of a hundred others to choose from and we agreed on 2 bottles.
    2. The box got lost by usps so I apologized and offered to send 2 additional bottles, but I didn't have either of the 2 original bottles so he picked 2 different bottles from the list. I was negotiating a big consulting job so rather than delay the replacement box a week since the specific beers are in my office cellar I asked my assistant to do it. (not sure why that seems odd, but I guess most guys assistants??) either way she was also busy so made the mistake of grabbing a bottle of concentrated solutions from my office fridge instead of cryo that he wanted. It was that time I noticed this post so I replied with: "Hey noticed your post. If you don't want the cryo just let me know or if you prefer a full cash refund for the beers you sent it's all good either way it's just beer. Either way my cell is xxxxxxxx if you're upset and want to give me a ring"

    His reply: "No I'm not upset and I'd still want the Cryo I had just never encountered this situation before so I was curious how other people would feel about it."

    It didn't quite seem like a cut and dry situation so I was just curious for input and I posted it before I heard back from you. Sorry if I made it seem like I was upset with the situation.

    3.
    Then he reads the post about me BS'ng saying I have a bunch of hydra and is even more upset and sends a new pm saying: "In another thread you mentioned having a lot of extra Hypersmash bottles so just replacing the original one would makes things right."

    My reply as already posted "If that was that the one about the pizza place. I was just BS'n the guy to have some fun with him. If I had extra hydra I would have sent a replacement bottle right away."

    4.
    Obviously he is upset and felt like he loss on the trade so I replied with:

    "If you are feeling like you lost on the trade I would be more than happy sending a 5th bottle and your original bottle back. My apologies again, but I drank 1 of the bottles already, but I would be more than happy to send the 2nd back with the cryo and refund you for the first. Like I said it's only beer so let me know if that works for you and if you are upset please give me a call on my cell."

    5. So I get another message saying:
    "You don't really have to go through all that. I kind of just want the Cryo that was offered and for you to pack the box instead of pawning it off on someone that I have no communication with. If that means it takes a few extra days I'm fine with that."

    Since he's upset that I had my assistant pack the box and she screwed it up I agreed to send him the Cryo along with his original veil bottle he sent back. The box will be going out shortly.

    Do people not wait to drink beer that is traded to them until their trade partner confirms your box landed safely? I thought that was a common courtesy?

    Guys like this, no.

    Ha, sending a 5th bottle. Terrible at math too. The two that didn’t make it don’t count nor does the leaky one.

    And of course the classic, “it’s only beer.”

    Probably depends on the situation. I don't trade much, but have a long time trading partner I still trade with on occasion. There's never any question of us not making the other whole if something goes wrong, so anything I send his way, I would encourage him to drink it as soon as he wants. There's certainly no reason for him to wait till I get his current box (sometimes there can be a month or two lag time, if one of us is waiting for a special bottle release).

    What happened to the Hydra bottles you mentioned having in your possession in the Completed Trades forum after having told him that you didn't have either of the first two bottles that were lost? Or is that just a misunderstanding?

    There is a lot to unpack here but first... How much of the above is true and how much is just "BS to fuck with the OP"?

    I never had a h
    I wasn't trolling you post I was stating that the brewery you are trading for has little to no recognition and has NEVER made a beer rated over 4.5 ever yet you feel they should trade 1-1 with 2 of the best beers released this year by those breweries?? Wow you kids now and days amazingly ignorant lol.

    It's all smoke and mirrors my sole intention was to fake a lost box and send 2 more additional boxes for a total of 5 beers AND send back the original bottle just to fuck with the OP... You got me lol...

    You what? I'm referring to this post in the Hydra "Completed Trades" thread from Apr 9: "I traded around 8 bottles for random stuff like the new Veils, some AC crowlers, and a few noche's. I probably should of held on to more of them and waited as they seem to be in high demand now. At least I still have a few left to drink as it probably the best BL i've had to date."

    So to confirm all previous posts regarding HH were all lies and now the truth is you never had any extra for yourself?

    Ohhhhhh this all makes much more sense now. I thought this guy sounded familiar. Just reached out to OP and confirmed identity... not sure whether it's appropriate to go into detail here but let's just say this isn't this guy's first "difficulty" (putting it gently).

    @John_M Surely this warrants a 30 day timeout that others recently received...... what a tool....absolutely no room in this great community for this behavior.

    and had the audacity to call others...”amazingly ignorant”

    This was in regards cryopreservation in the BL thread
    Wonder where the mule team was for the hyper mash release? Self quarantine?

    Stop with this garbage of calling the OP "upset". This is a bullshit way of making it seem like the OP is overreacting. He's pissed off because he didn't get the HH you were supposed to send, and then you sent the wrong replacement, and then it turns out you've said in multiple places that you have extra HH.

    Send the OP the bottle of HH that he's owed.
