Best of luck. Since you're selling it for more than it's available for retail, and with your first post, not likely you will sell it here.

I can buy it locally for $499, soooooo $800 is a ways out there. However, welcome to the boards!  Next time maybe your first post should be about something other than bending people over. Wine us, dine us, stimulate us with conversation.....and then try to ream one by us.

The cheapest non auction price Wine Searcher shows is $725, and the average to be about $800, so if you can get them for $499, thats a good profit if you can flip them somewhere. Somehow I just dont think that price is right. The last hammer price at Winebid was $650, but when you factor in your buyers premium, shipping, etc its prob close to the retail on the other bottle. Someone had to be devils advocate I guess...

With tax, you're up to around $535. Even if one was to get $650 at Winebid, and a low seller's commission of 12%, net profit is squat. $499 is a great price if you're an aftermarket buyer, but not so great if you're a flipper.

Can't say it better than that.
