I shouldn't have looked at this thread as it is depressing! . In Canada, all we can buy at Costco is giant boxes of cereal, smokes and film processing!
It must be the higher rent in Westlake Village (or the higher average income!). Anyway, costco.com is selling the '99 d'Yquem for $129.99-right in the middle of the two.
Do you ever go to the Slimi Costco for wine? Definitely less selection, but when they do bring in some good stuff it is usually there for a little longer. Maybe we could exchange e-mails and notify each other when we make a find at the local Costco's. Mine is stuw@pressed4time.com.
Thanks, Stuart

Danville Costco have most of the items posted above as Novato Costco. In addition, they have 2001 Ausone and may still have some 2000 Concha y Toro Don Melchor, $28.99, #94361.
So I went into Costco in St. Peters, Missouri today to look for something special for over the holidays and the clerk told me, they never get any good wine because some guy named Powell out in California hogs it all.
At Concord, CA costco they have 2000 Gaja Costa Russi $319? (WS100) 2004 Kim Crawford SB. $13? (cases) Campbels Muscat 375 $12 96 Dom $99 99 d'yquem $126
Casa Lapostole Cuvee Alexandre Cabernet $14.99 CSM Eroica $14.99 99 Grange $179 01 Bin 707 $69 They have some Kabinett and Eiswein, not sure if they are good.
