    So I completed a trade, it was a very casual trade. I think we both feel good about it, how do I make it so my trade is official with my stats? Do you have to post exactly what was traded and if so how do you do that? Sorry if this post annoys anyone, but this is new to me and I already have another one in process. Plus I would like to give him props for being a pleasure when he took my trade virginity.

    Did you submit a trade thru the system on here? If so they have to accept it and after that you can go in and leave feedback for each other.

    Congrats on your first trade.

    Starting a Beer Trade
    The feedback system assumes that you've already coordinated or completed a beer trade with another user in person (IP), through a private conversation, or in one of the beer trading forums. You shouldn't make unsolicited requests using the system.
    • Use the Find Member form to visit the user's beer trade page, and then click the "Request Trade" button.
    • The user will receive your request and may approve or deny it. Trades in this state are referred to as "pending." You may also cancel your pending requests before action is taken.
    • If a pending trade is denied it's removed from the system. If approved it moves to an "open" state.
    • Open trades are essentially ready for feedback, and it's good form to leave feedback immediately upon receipt of your trade package.
    Leaving Feedback
    When you're ready to leave feedback, go to your Open trades, find the trade item, and confirm that you're ready. The feedback form will then appear.
    • Was the trade Good, Okay, or Bad?
    • What stood out about the trade? Were there any issues? You only have 140 characters to use, so make sure that you're feedback is honest, concise, and helpful to the trader and others. You can edit your feedback too.
    • Failing to leave feedback is bad form.
    • Feedback may be edit for up to 60 days; see Sent trades.

    @SawDog505

    Good evening,
    I noticed you have no *open* trades, which leads me to believe you didn't use the trade request *prior* to sending out your box and receiving your box. Just some friendly advice, ALWAYS make the trade *official* by sending a trade request to your partner, or having them send you one, accepted by both parties before sending any beer. If you have any other questions in regards to trading, please feel free to message me.

    Cheers!
    Dave
