The guy couldn't even be bothered to use private domain registration: http://who.godaddy.com/whois.aspx?domain=ibuypappy.com&prog_id=GoDaddy

The registrant is the owner of Financial District Wine and Liquors, and the address is the shop. I wonder what he is doing buying up so much Pappy of unknown provenance...

I applaud his novel approach to practicing free market capitalism. Bourbon is just another commodity like orange juice concentrate or pork bellies. What is the current trading price of PVW15 anyway?

It could be done. I snuck a flask of OWA into a bar one night and some nosy lady was asking me what was in it. I smiled and said pappy. She then immediately wanted to sample it. I let her sample it and then she declared it the best bourbon she's ever had. People are so gullible. Kudos to people that can make some bucks selling to this guy. I will hold onto mine for me and friends consumption. It's too much of a pain in the ass to get. Besides you can't put a price on sharing good bourbon with other bourbon loving folks. I swear it tastes even better among friends.

Uhhhhh, not it's not!

I know the laws as somewhat different in every country/state, but AFAIK anyone - including a kid with a lemonade stand - can sell orange juice on any street corner, alcohol, OTOH, requires a LICENCE!

I have yet to have PVW. I thought about getting some at a bar the other night for $95 for two ounce pour for the 23 year but just couldnt do it. However, I am still curious. I am hoping I can find some at Bourbonfest in Sept.

Hope you get your chance at a reasonable price Don and I hope you like it, most of what we pay for in Van Winkle whiskys now is the name.

A few days ago, Bonnie Bernstein (a US sportscaster, for those who may not be familiar) tweeted that she was searching for a bottle of Pappy for a gift. I thought that was interesting.

If you sell orange juice on the corner without a license to be selling things on the corner, you will get a fine. If this guy owns the liquor store then he can legally buy bourbon right? Its just the formality of who is selling to him if they have a license. But yeah I'll save pappy empties for anyone.

A merchant licensed to sell liquor can only buy through sources approved by State law if the goods are to be resold.

If Lastbottle is correct in who this guy is, he lists Pappy 15 for $999, and Pappy 20 for almost $1200. If he actually gets those prices, good for him.
