When does a verbal trade become binding if a player says 'I accept' before the goods change hands?
The rulebook sets the basic rule, and the designer describes how his group applies it.

The rulebook makes an agreed trade binding before it happens, but the designer leaves the finer timing to each group. In his group, a deal that swaps goods at once binds when the goods change hands, and a purely future deal binds once both players explicitly accept it. Backing out afterwards is a matter of etiquette.
