Hop Posted July 29, 2017 Share Posted July 29, 2017 Is RY10 still an easy pass @ $54.99 OTD? If you haven't had it I'd go for a bottle at the $54.99. Part of my issue is that it took such a jump here in NC in less than a year. From $44 to $69Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

HoustonNit Posted July 29, 2017 Share Posted July 29, 2017 Passed on KC 25th for $79.99 - best price I've seen but still not interested after the mediocre reviews. Also passed on the first ETL I've seen on the shelf here. It was a VERY easy pass at $75 and can stay on the shelf at that!Interesting, I've actually seen some really good reviews of the 25th vs. 2001. I'm a Beam fan and would totally buy at that price vs. the $130 or more I've seen. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
HoustonNit Posted July 29, 2017 Share Posted July 29, 2017 Oh those silly TW guys - always working hard on their marketing skills . . . . . . [emoji6] They keep this Baron series stuff locked up in the glass case next to the bourbon aisle at my local TW. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Bourserker Posted July 30, 2017 Share Posted July 30, 2017 Was up in WI this past week and passed on several things including IWH 15, the OF limited releases, a pile of the Orphan Barrel stuff, and more. It wasn't because of ridiculous prices though, it was because I ran out of cash I was on a moratorium for a while, but then I lifted it. In lifting it I am still limiting myself to how many purchases I make, and I of course exceeded that...a decent priced limited edition Laphroaig 15 (200th anniversary release) some how slipped in there with all the bourbon Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
0895 Posted July 31, 2017 Share Posted July 31, 2017 Ugh... Tricked. Thought it was redemption rye @ a killer sale price. The bottles look similar to me... Oh well. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

lcpfratn Posted August 1, 2017 Share Posted August 1, 2017 That's incredible! It certainly doesn't help one feel confident about the controls in place to put on that label "bottled in bond" does it? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Clueby Posted August 1, 2017 Share Posted August 1, 2017 I just looked at a new bottle of this at a Schnuck's store. The "Bottled In Bond" label is now gone from the label. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

CardsandBourbon Posted August 3, 2017 Author Share Posted August 3, 2017 Heard that one of the local stores had some CEHT BP. Headed over to see and they had it priced at $92.99, $102.29 with tax. Couldn't pull the trigger on that. Not a total loss though as I texted my son to see if he was interested and he said to get it for him . . . so I still get to try it. Also passed on the latest GTS Jr. since I already had a bottle and they were asking $72.99. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Two bottles of the CEHT BP would have went home with me. Still looking for those bottles to show up near my area.

That's another screwup from Luxco. I wondered how they could do that with DN1843BIB but this one makes me think they really don't give a damn about what goes on the label or what they sell to us. How can I be expected to believe the age statement on things like RY10SB or OE101 when this occurs on a regular basis. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Limegoldconvertible68 Posted August 3, 2017 Share Posted August 3, 2017 I passed on an Old Forester Statesman today for $54.99. I'm still trying to figure out what makes it less proof but more expensive than OFsig100. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
