o yes - deff looks like account takeover on this one, just checked sellers history etc, and now all of a sudden they have many high priced items for sale.

look what has reared its ugly head again, same pictures, different ebay user id

item number - 150384221945

whats the point? ebay wont care, as long as they get there 10% cut at the end, thats all there interested in

this bottle was sold at the distillery for £95 a year or so back, not too bad for a 20yo single cask. it was the first single cask dalmore to be sold at the distillery, and was only for sale at the distillery. someone told me it was the first ever official single cask bottling of dalmore when i boug...

i actually picked up a bottle of this tucked at the back of the shelfs at royal lochnagar distillery a few months back for £70ish, was the only one there and was shocked at finding it as it was one of the 4 bottles that were brought out at the start of the range way back in 95. was even more surpris...

last time i counted and before i lost my excell spreadsheet

i was sitting at 590 bottles, so must be sitting at around the 620 bottle mark these days, all unopen.

HAZELBURN (SPRINGBANK) * (2) (OB), Springbank distilled & bottled, labeled as "For Switzerland", Very Dark Oloroso, one of the very first of these done by Springbank in the 90's, these are from a total outturn of 348 bottles. $275 each they couldnt have possibly been bottled in the 90...

just re-read the pdf on it, appears he is saying he has exclusivity on the casks, now im even more surprised, (someone will prob point out something ive missed like he owns a percentage of the distillery or that) thats a fair number of bottles to ship on for a fairly small retailer.

vitara7

the 17yo sounds really good and think it would be a cracking dram, had it been another shop then probably would have got a couple. dont know if its just me, but im amazed that the first OB single cask ever from a distillery has gone to a small fairly newish retailer, or i have misread and he doesnt ...

just do what your competitors do up the road from you do, declare it as a lava lamp on the cn22

Ordered 2 myself 7.95 to Ireland :mrgreen: In all fairness they are probably using a courier service or have done a deal with Royal Mails Parcel Post due to the large numbers of dispatches now as opposed to just using the regular post service like a member of the public. Fair play and really lookin...

the "order number" youll have isnt a laphroaig order number. its the order number for Mail Marketing Scotland who does the shipping etc for D Johnston who own laphroaig. they also do the same mail marketing stuff for other companies, so the number you have will be a cumlative order number...

I am sure one of the baggage handlers looked at them and said "Oh, these look expensive and new. How can I annoy the owner who is so pretentious to have purchased these bags? Yes, I'll see how many dents it will take." ah, you sound like youve had an encounter with the genius baggage hand...

this years is actually quite cheap tbh

the issue i have with this bottle is not the colour of the label, but the corners and the edges are mint and at perfect right angles still on the bottle, i mean, half the bottles done in this day and age with modern bottling halls dont get labels to adhere that well all the way round the label and s...

thanks for the pics, just as i thought, its a diffrent edition. i got my bottle a week or so after they started this rose thingy on the tour and mine has been bottled at 53.4% apart from the strength, i cant see a single differance on the labels. Looks like they went back on what they said at the st...

save yourself some cash if you want it. i got quoted less than parkers price from a certain pony tailed itallian a couple of months back. and thats when the pound vs euro was even less than now.

vitara7

any chance in you posting a picture of the bottle you got, especilly the front label. reason i ask is last time i was up there, couple of months back, was told they had no more, but heard through the grapevine that someone had bought a bottle recently, your the second ive heard about getting one of ...

Well, I just found out that another numbering of my bottle went for 2242 euros at Whiskyauctions in november 08. The 62,02%, and the 26 year old ones goes for around 500 euros. I probably got one of the rearest versions. Using the finishing price for a bottle from one auction result in what is a hi...

to be honest, im starting to loose interest in my collection these days, havent bought a bottle for the collection for quite a while now and starting to think about getting rid of my whole collection, (about 600 large bottles of single malt distillery own bottles) if i do decide to do so, ill give y...

your probably right. mines is sitting with a glen flagler to one side of it and a st magdalene staff bottling to the other, does look kind of strange sitting ni the middle

vitara7

to make matters worse for trying to get this bottle, it was not only just for sale at the distillery, but you could only buy a bottle, if you went on the balvenie tour at £30-£35, there wasnt many bottled, and what they did have didnt last long, they only way youll get one it ebay, kruger or a speci...

bottles from the rare malts selection are one i tend to collect myself, there was around 107 diffrent offical versions from the rare malts selection range, i tried to collect all of them, have sort of given up at around the 80 bottles from the range mark. Some of the bottles in the range are going f...

this can be found in many western european spirts shops, seen this and the 15yo in gibralter, valencia and casablanca last week.
its not rare, and as nick states, was bottled as a bit of a cash flow thing for them at start.

so far im on two large walking closets, both each the size of my bathroom, floor to celing on three walls all the way round on shelfs spaced just far enough to fit a bottle between, that and i also have about 30-40 boxes full off bottles up the loft, so i recon that would fill another half of these ...

wow, it has been relisted.....

as for £20-£30 and more on a good day id have thought £20-£30 for it would have been for it on a good day

there is only 4 bottles in that series, there have been a few diffrent packagings for it.

have a gander on ebay and other auction sites and get a feel for prices of collectable whiskies, then once you know what prices stuff tends to be going for, then youll know when you bag a bargin.
