I just want to make sure that I'm not getting ripped off. I'm relatively new (10 trades on here, and several on FB/IP), but I am still learning about all the beer and it's trade value. . . So, any honest help here would be appreciated. . . I have JK stuff, and this is the offer that is possibly on the table: Dark Lord '14 JK MvB JK Ambree JK Nocturn Chrysallis JK Hibernal Dichotomous JK Boxers Revenge JK Encendia BBPt5 Pt5 extras you: BA Speedway Viet Speedway BA Wee Heavy Choc Rain Black Tues Velvet Merkin extras Should I ask for more, or is this worth it? Thank you guys for being cool about this. . .
Trade value is a subjective thing because what a beer is worth to you isn't what it might be worth to someone else. Concentrate on trades with people who have great feedback and be comfortable that they aren't going to rip you off. Most people on here want to have a good rep and want people to trade with them more than once so they aren't going to screw someone over. Easiest way to tell if you made a good trade...are you ok letting go of the beer you're trading? Are you happy with the beer you are getting in return? If yes to both then you are good. If you're worried about maxing the value out on your beers to get as much as possible you're doing this wrong.
Unless you're trading for/away whales or some very rare highly sought after beers, getting close to $4$ with beers of similar difficulty to obtain (brewery release only and/or limited distribution, etc.) is the way to go. Just roughly eyeballing the bottles, $4$ looks to be in your favor.
Excellent advice. I'm not much of a sour guy, and I happen to have these beers, and I am happy to trade them for these. Sounds like a win-win to me.
