Just curious on the trade value on this one... I got a pair of these as extras from an excellent trade partner who I muled for earlier this year. Not overly interested in keeping more than one and am trying to get a feel for what it trades for? Atrial? Cantillon? Darkness? Huna? I'm planing on putting something up but don't want to be grossly over or under valued. Thanks!
Isn't it a 12 oz bottle that was around $10 at retail? Quasi limited? My sense is that the items you listed are over valuing your Vanilla Shake.
It's a 12 oz bottle but was more than $10. Don't know exact figure but think in the $30 range with shipping.
$30-35 for a 12oz Bourbon Shake... To the right trader it should land Dark Lord, Huna, Darkness, Jester King or some Loons. I dont think its going to get much beyond that.
Your trade partner sent you a couple really nice extras so I say drink them. Personally, I want people to consume extras I send as I try and put some decent thought and effort in to it. Your choice though
For reference I traded a Prop for St. Lam + BA VS(traded was expanded, but revolved around those initial beers). But I think you should be able to land any of the beers you listed quite easily.
BA Vanilla Shake is $23 for 12oz. Here is the key factor in trying to get, or trade this beer: the only way to get it is to order from the Mikkeller online shop. That is it, period. So now that we've established that, if you only want one bottle, it's going to cost you at least $40, because shipping from Denmark sucks. If you want to take advantage of the best possible shipping rates, you need to order 6-7 bottles. Which will bring the per bottle cost to about $34, but you'll of course be dropping that x6 or 7. So to trade for a single bottle, it's valued at about $30ish IMO. All that being said, it's an amazing fucking beer.
You'd be a fool not to drink one of those, IMO. Probably better than anything you'll end up getting in return. Ironically, I got one of mine in a trade from the previous poster. Thanks again for the trade @markgugs! That, and I don't believe in trading away generous extras...but that's just me sayin'
