eBay beer resale approval dips 5% from prior year
There’s been a lot of buzz around eBay as of late with some major beer releases happening in October like Canadian Breakfast Stout, The Bruery Black Tuesday and Surly Darkness.
Though 52% still approve of the practice of re-selling beers on eBay, something admonished by most some brewers, that number has gone down nearly 5% since I last asked the same question about a year ago.
That said, despite how vocal those brewers and the rest of the minority have been on the subject, most craft beer drinkers still say they’re cool with the craft beer aftermarket.
This really isn’t any bigger now than it was last year, or even the year before. Yes, there are some brewers that do admonish ebay sales, and they are very vocal about it, but to say “most” brewers admonish ebay sales is rather fictitious to say the least.
