Kicker is, an 18 year old can sign up for an ebay account, and have beer shipped to their house technically.
Thats a lawsuit waiting to happen for ebay if a minor is able to purchase alcohol on their site.
So if anyone wants to sue ebay...

This is the problem.
Shipping beer for trades im aware is illegal but USPS and Fed ex are well aware of it themselves and basically let it go.
But this one in particular is that stupid hyped beer which doesnt have good reviews at all but people are clamoring for it because CBS blasted it to every local station in the US claiming it tastes like a bowl of lucky charms (even though that was never a claim made by the brewery). 200 for a 4 pack of any IPA that isnt king julius is beyond laughable, especially something which is truly this mundane and has been done hundreds of times.
Someone apparently sold a 4 pack of this for $450 the day it was released. Also saw reports of people driving in from hundreds of miles away to only miss getting cans.
The whole thing is just a ridiculous racket and its a shame this is how many people were introduced into the craft beer scene.
