    I traded Matt 1 Pliny and 1 Heady. In return, Matt sent me 2 KBS and 2 Two Hearted Ales. He packed everything well, shipped fast and communication was very good. I would definitely trade with Matt again in the future and look forward to doing so. Thanks Matt!

    Is this a Ted "swimming instructor" Kennnedy joke?

    I really hope so.

    More of these.

    Each side of every trade that gets completed on BA should post a Good Trader thread in this forum.

    I wish my work was this appreciative. "You came in to today and did some work, good job!"

    All this congratulatory back-patting isn't helping things. This is what trade references on your profile is for, just say they were good, and people who are looking up previous trades when working it out with somebody can do the research. Just put each other in your profiles as having completed a trade, and put an asterisk if you wish denoting extras, or even "great" extras.

    I like seeing thread like this is the subject of the OP is something akin to something like this:

    http://beeradvocate.com/community/t...nd-3-hints-and-hauls.45767/page-6#post-733220

    But we don't need a new great trader thread for each time somebody completes the trade that was agreed upon, and maybe threw in a couple of extras. OP, just "beer it forward" and try and be equally generous next time. Or, let us know when you guys have completed a few more trades, and really start hooking each other up with some nice hauls.

    I'm glad your trade went well, but you don't need to shout it from the rooftops.
