Some very comical prices at a few stops:

-- ER17 at $399

-- THH at $399

-- PVW15 at $899

-- A complete 2013 VW set for $6000 (10, 12, Rye, 15, 20, and 23)

That's only $1000/bottle, seems fair to me!:crazy:

A.H. Hirsch 16 year humidor set, $1300+ Told my wife about it later. We got into a conversation about whether one would feel guilty about drinking it (she would, I wouldn't). Then she actually said I could buy it - if I agreed we could get another dog. I don't think it's going to happen.

awwww. I was looking at rescue dogs online last night; Id take every one of them if I could. But, usually, I prefer dogs to most people.

maybe I shouldve gone to vet school instead........except I despise cats

I won't stray any further than this off topic - but I've got one wife, two children and one dog. All seem like exactly the right number to me. YMMV.

Passed on these two yesterday. I've never heard of Whitmeyer's, and my alarm bells go off whenever producers start waving the Texas flag in my face. The Bowman was tempting (as I really like the port and gingerbread ones), but I decided I've really got to work on thinning the herd of bottles I've already got at home. I also passed on AE CS at the same store, priced at ~$195.

Looks like you also passed on Fighting Cock. Is it $11.29 or $21.29?

I'd say the latter, knowing the pricing at that store. (On the plus side, my First Grader got a kick out of the FC label.)

I've never heard or seen Whitmeyers and I'm usually at least aware of most Texas brands, even the ones that are farces (which is most of them).

I was looking at a bottle of PHC Promise of Hope, but I had to pass on it. It jumped from $140 to $200 while I was holding it, as the store owner informed me "That is collector item, because that guy gonna die soon!"

Looks like I am officially done with that store.

Michters 10 Year. Just can't get too excited about it for the price, for whatever reason.

Just got a call from one of my out of state shops saying they got the Old Blowhard and Barterhouse. Just not sold on it. Gonna have to dig up a sample or bar with it first.

Bookers 25Th Anni. Perty looking packaging. HOwever, I am not completely sold on the juice at this point. I put it back on the shelf but, may end up grabbing it once I read a couple more reviews.

Any Thoughts???

Ended up grabbing the last bottle of Stagg Jr for 1/2 the cost. (this one is growing on me. A couple weeks air time and it is pretty darn good stuff for the $)

I'm in the same boat... And it just doesn't interest me that much...

I have a really hard time passing something up when my preferred store sets something aside for me...9 times out of 10 it is something I want. But that other time I usually just grit my teeth and buy it anyways. I don't want the well to dry up after all.
