Hey all, New to beer trading, and wanted to get some tips on the best way to send beer to folks around the country. Specifically, cold beer.
FritZone, Personally, I try to put non-bomber size beers in a gallon ziplock and then wrap it in bubble wrap. This way if it does break for some reason, less of a chance it will leak out of the box and alert UPS / FedEx. Usually add a solid layer of bubble wrap on the top and bottom and sides as well. I think it's better to over package then under, especially when seeing the costs and scarcity of some beers that are being traded. Regarding cold beers, I don't know. I just try to get the trades delivered in a reasonable period. I hope that helps a bit.
When I first started trading Al(mythaeus) has this on his profile sent me this link http://www.beeradvocate.com/community/threads/tips-for-newbie-on-trading.177530/#post-2413609 and it has a lot of helpful information
