Trade Value Thread (May 2018)

I have two 2012 Bell's Black Note Stouts and a 2014 Bell's Black Note Stout that I am trying to understand the value of. Would like to trade it for fresh NEIPAs from any of the heavy hitters.

 

I hear you bro.....

I was just joking though

 

I feel like those don't hold that much in the way of trade value. I could be incorrect though

 

No offense taken. But I guess I’m a victim of my own advice. I am so puzzled as to the drop in IWAAD b1 value. Maybe b/c b2 was released but b2 isn’t even the best Wake Fest bottle that was released. I get that it’s an adjunct stout which may or may not have a shorter shelf life than a non BA stout but it used to trade 1:1 with HJ 16 and Assassin 14+. Oh well, I’ll gladly drink my bottle. Just looking to try some other ghost whalez.

Cheers!

 

I'd keep trying for the right set of eyes. Again, I think perceived drop in value is more about those who want a B1 vs a B2. Unlike some of the other stouts, that does not seem like one where a vertical seems so important.

Keep looking!

 

About 6 to 8 months ago, I trade SR71 for IWAADb1 + Label Us + two DeGarde "The" series. If I had any SR71 left, I would do it again. I think your trade offer is more than fair and if I had any of your ISO, I would do it. Sadly, I'm down to one bottle of Assassin '16.

 

B1 definitely has value . It really comes down to every state going to every state

 

Damn I needed to be your friend last year lol

 

If we live in a world where vintage BN can't pull hazy IPAs with case limits then what are we doing here

 

I think thirst's comment was more along the line of being able to "hard" compare it in value to something of known value. Can it pull NE IPAs? Sure. Is it equitable to a BC reserve? Rare 15? VR? Hard to say.

I think this is more of a niche bottle thing as well, but that said, I don't think the value would be higher than Rare 15, unless there are a couple collectors looking for those specific bottles.

 

Bingo. Well said. Niche bottle is right.

Maybe $4$ trade for trillium or some of lesser known NE IPA producers would yield would be a better move


Also, for me personally ...trading stout for IPA? Ugh.

 

Is FS comparable to 17 Prop?

 

Fundamental Summation is similar to FO, and less than Prop 17 IMO, by enough that it needs a decent plus (i.e. not just 2 local IPAs, unless they are limited or something I guess. I am not in the IPA game.)

 

Thanks and cheers!

 

Appervation for RFI 1:1 was told I need a plus to land RFI. Thoughts?

 

Seems to vary. Sometimes it seems to go 1:1 with Rare, FO, and the like, and other times closer to 1:1 with reserve (Reserve being a little less than value than Rare). I haven't seen any quantity Appervation for bigger bottles (e.g. 2 appervation for a VR, or something similar) since Appervation first came out. I suspect it might still happen, but would take someone searching for it specifically.

So, to answer your question: 1:1 or 1:1+ is fair depending on the parties and the size of the plus. (2 cans of hops or a local 12oz BA stout or something (nothing too limited) seems reasonable. Nothing too large.)

 

Great thread every week! First off...

Adjunct Trail and Prop 17 1:1?

 

Would Kane BA Sunday Brunch go 1:1 with a bottle from Cycle, Angry Chair, or even Bottle Logic?
