What Did You Pass Up Today? Winter/Spring 2012

[BarrelChar]

I passed on a PVW15 at $259.99. The same store had a VWSR Lot B for $119.99.

On my way out the door the owner asked me what I wanted to buy. I told him nothing that he wanted to sell.

Wow, and I thought the PVW20's I passed on yesterday for $160 & $230 at two stores were the pinnacle of unethical price-gouging. Time to adjust the absurdity scale again. At this point, I'm just waiting to see it for $400 so I can snap a pic and make it my profile icon.

Passed on a 1.75L dusty of Louisville Old Charter 10 (86 proof) for $40 too.

Passed up an IW Harper dusty, a bunch of 1983 OF Primes (bought one), an old Glenmorangie 10 year, a dusty Old Crow... Possibly others that I'll check out next time I go.

Probably should have picked up the Harper...

Just curious about the price on the Harper?

Passed on a THH and WLW for $129 and a GTS for $139. Also passed on a Lot B for $79, crazy prices and I hope they sit for a while at these prices!

Didn't get the price or proof. I'm assuming it's about $30 (it's a 1.75 L), considering the prices of everything else in the store. It was way up on a shelf behind bulletproof plastic, and the clerk was already a bit tired of me when I saw it. Next time, though...

Passed up 2 PVW23 and a AH Hirsch 16.

GTS and WLW 2011 for 189.99, first place here I have seen marked up BTAC.

A handful of PVW23 at $349. Too rich for my blood.

I passed up quite a bit today as I'm just not interest in buying like I used to be! I left behind bottles of FR 4 Grain, Sonoma Cutter, 2004, 05 OFBB, Handy 2008, Pappy 20, 23, Lot B, ORVW 10/90 , 10/107, OWA 7/107 2005, Louisville OC 8 and 10yr bottles, JDSS, ND OGD 86 1983, a couple others that are slipping my mind. Moral of the story as there is still plenty of good bourbon sitting on shelves around the country!
