    OP, just to give you a straight up answer to your question, I traded one of mine for a DL vert, and as far as the rest, the only way another one of my CRs is going out is if it's for a KH.

    he did it to himself by getting defensive in someone else's thread. plus, you have to admit it's funny when someone says "i don't put up vague iso's" and then someone links proof to the contrary.

    "ya, i remember grinding my feet on eddie's couch."

    auroracrisis used to claim that rare was all over shelves in lexington. he couldn't provide photo proof, refused to name the store, and refused to mule it for people, but he was insistent that it existed and therefore wasn't rare. kentucky has since joined narnia and the savage land as places where time stands still and miracles happen.

    Certainly didn't see this coming.

    Thanks to everyone that provided input. I think I'm going to be able to work something out that makes us both happy.

    There's a running joke on this site that you can find whales on the shelf in KY.

    I heard it was going 1:1 with Black Note, if that helps any.

    Since Rare came up...

    Is Rare in the same range as CR? My instinct tells me Rare might take a little more, but just wanted to see what the consensus is amongst those who have actually traded it or traded for it.

    Thanks again for your advice.

    This thread makes me so happy I got into this before 2010, and then hooked up with people who got into this before 2010.

    Regardless, thanks for the fun read guys!

    Similar range, but more expensive. Get a BCBS '08 if you're worried about trading too much, that'll get you 95% of the way there.

    Namely because he's completely wrong about the "overvaluing" part. He doesn't have a clue what it takes to get any of the local stuff that he thinks is so "overvalued". FFS, jackasses follow the damn delivery trucks around with carloads of people to buy up all the bottles every place the truck stops, even if they have a 1 bottle limit. How does that make it less sought after than a brewery that makes people line up at their doors?
