    Ok. Well I’m getting a lot of private messages with offers as well. So if anyone is interested just shoot me a message with what you think is fair offer and then I’ll pick one tomorrow. My dad and I each have a bottle of VB so I’m going to trade one and we will share what we get from it. I guess it doesn’t need to be top 25.

    Why not keep the auction in the comments? Might as well have some fun with it.

    That’s an even better idea! Submit your best offer here. I’ll shut it down in a day or so.

    I can also sweeten the deal with some new glarus Belgium red, regular assassin, and morning delight if someone wants to do a mega trade.

    out of the top 50 or so beers we had KBBS, heady topper, mornin delight, cbs, assassin, parabola, westy 12. So not interested in those

    Just a friendly heads up: auctions are generally frowned upon in the beer trading world. It sounds like people are happy to bid here because they're looking for a "good deal" given that you seem pretty unaware of the value of the beer that you're trading, but probably a good idea to keep this in mind in the future.

    Next time, figuring out more specifically what you're looking for before posting (i.e. what you think is fair) is a better way to go about trading. Good luck!

    I’m aware of the value. I just have not had a lot of the top beers so I don’t have anything specific I was trying to get.

    The auction was suggested to me, and I didn’t see anything in the rules against it, so I rolled with it.

    You're right...It turns into a feeding frenzy. OP, message me if you want to take it further.

    If you're aware of the value, then it's typically preferred here that you post a closer approximation of what you're looking for instead of asking for a litany of offers and asking others to offer whatever they think is fair.

    People only suggested a public auction for the entertainment value, as -once again- it's typically frowned upon... and people are only participating it (or at least the majority them, I'd guess) because they want to take advantage of someone who has a beer that would typically go for much more than you seem to be wanting.

    Again, not trying to be a jerk! You're right that it's not a technical rule (or at least I don't think it is). Just wanted to let you know "unspoken rules" for future notice.

    I read somewhere that auctions are now encouraged. Due to COVID-19 or some other irrelevant reason.

    I'll offer a six pack of Zima. All SIX bottles. Let me know.
