michaelturtle1 Posted October 28, 2012 Share Posted October 28, 2012 Timing and location are the keys, one of my local stores sold out in 15 minutes and another hasn't sold a bottle until I bought 2 saz18s.. All the stores were allocated 3 bottles of each so it really isn't hard for the stores to sell out quickly. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
jersey12 Posted October 28, 2012 Share Posted October 28, 2012 Some places haven't even gotten their BTAC yet. I haven't heard of any NYC stores getting it in yet. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
sob0728 Posted October 30, 2012 Share Posted October 30, 2012 Minnesota is not getting BTAC/Pappy for 2 more weeks but apparently Wisconsin has already gotten their allocation. It just seems totally random. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

qman22 Posted October 30, 2012 Share Posted October 30, 2012 Everything! Went to the state liquor store at lunch and it was closed due to Sandy. Even though we in the southwest part of PA didn't get hit very hard the state closed all the stores. Another reason the state controlled liquor bureaucracy sucks Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Tony Posted November 2, 2012 Share Posted November 2, 2012 Tony Did you confront them on the price?I did actually. I go in there from time to time so felt ok talking to him about it.He said he had to buy $4000 worth of Buffalo Trace product to get the Pappy so was charging extra to make up for what he had to spend on product that is going to take him a while to sell. I said I understand that he could charge what he wanted but it seemed like a lot. He said that he only adds about $100 to a bottle(which is way to much to me). I pointed out that the 15 yo is supposed to be 79.99 and that he was getting a lot more than a $100 more and he said he had people willing to pay it. More power to him I guess but I guess this confirms why I do not give him that much business.Best regards, Tony Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I'm seeing a lot more of people having a surcharge this year. I think the closest thin that I've got to state minimum was $10 over on some GTS.
