Trade Value Thread (2019)

lol. This is actually a widely demonstrated phenomenon: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Endowment_effect

 

Good call. Should have remembered that from my psych classes in college.

 

Just looking for some feedback on Prairie Dawg stouts. I know very little about these. What are these worth from a $4$ standpoint? For example, if hops were offered in return for dawgs , what is the expectation? Any insight here would be greatly appreciated. Thanks in advance.

 

Looking to trade for CC Xbalanque & Xquic Maple for a very good buddy's bday. Have no idea what kinda of VRU these are at or what kinda of range of bottles to offer up FT. Any help would be appreciated. Thanks

 

I traded away BG&E for Xquic back in March. Not sure where the value is now, but that’s what it took back in March

 

I still have a bottle of all 3 releases from the fest after drinking 1 of each. It's not hard to trade for, but may be hard to find so a solid bottle would be required. Both bottles are solid and highly underrated, but because it's a "pepper" beer it has a specific flavor profile so you either love it or hate it. I like others who love it would have a hard time trading their last bottle away.

 

On a side note the bottles are actually really cool and I love the aztec embroidering on them.

 

Dawg stock used to be pretty high and I actually love their boozy barrel style, however with a LOT of infection issues I like lots of others seem to just avoid them. The problem is only a few barrels of a certain batch could be infected so it's hard to track which beers are bad and which ones aren't making it a gamble causing the value to go down quit a bit.

 

Wow...that’s too bad. They sound amazing. I appreciate your insight. So I believe your saying someone with multiples of the same beer could in fact have one that’s infected and one that isn’t

 

I am trying to figure out the value of Shared Project Coffee Shop Vibes-Colombian.

 

Which iteration.

 

batch 1, colombian

 

A 2+ year old coffee stout, I can't imagine it has much left to it. I love that beer and I wouldn't trade anything above $4$ for it.

 

I know someone who says they traded 3 VSB b2 for a Maman, so you might not be too far off.

 

Agreed however having had one I would have to imagine for coffee stouts bc of its thick consistency has probably held up however a lot rests on that particular bean which I couldn't speculate.

 

That's not bad and normally I wouldn't advocate for that but yeah they've been drying up hard of late. Even though NC was limit 2pp its distribution didn't last like FO which I still see on shelves at not a terrible mark up but the mule scene in LA is ridiculous so I'm sure many somehow got a case.

 

The new BM should be 1.5 MDb6’s

 

VRU is harder to use recently because the value of VR is fluctuating a bit. Honestly believe each of those bottles is around the value of the new FO if not a bit more. Shouldn’t be too hard to acquire

 

What kind of bourbon would a derivation 11 fetch in the BTAC series?

 

D11 is pretty much worth 2/3 of the BTAC bottles together depending on which ones I think. If you're on the D11 side you can pretty much get anything you want
