I'm relatively new to the forum and i've been lurking for a bit trying to learn from the many knowledgable people who post here.

I talked to one of my local shops who offered me 02 HSS @ 200 a bottle.. I committed to 3 but told him I might be interested in a 6 pack if he could get it. Another local shop mentioned they would be getting a few bottles in at 180 shortly but I have not heard back from them yet.

I'm wondering if 200 is really an excellent deal on this bottle right now. Should I buy as much as I can maybe from an investment standpoint?

I've heard many wonderful things about this vintage and i'm dying to get a hold of some. I'm feeling safe with picking up 3 at this price but I'm not sure if i should jump on the rest to put away or sell off later.

any ideas?

Buy Them All! Great price

Steve

Where are you located?

If you can pick them up at anything less than 250, it's a bargain. Go get em tiger !!!!

ps. Lowest "real" price on winesearcher pro is 299, the rest settle in around 399-450.

pss. Champagnes just outside of Detroit on 13 mile rd. will sell you one at a time for 189 for any of you Detroiters out there. See Dean or Paula.

tlam,

Is that located on the west or east side of I-75?

Take I-75 to 696 East. Exit on VanDyke and turn Left. ollow vandyke about 3 miles and make a michigan left on 13 mile which is calles Chicago road. It's down about 2 blocks on the right hand side.

tlam,

Thanks for the info. We have a place up on Higgins Lake and usually drive up via Route 23 & pick up 75 again in Flint. I may have to take a detour next time. It looks like the Match Cab is a good price as well.

Not sure if you all "know" Italian Wino but he will pay for it without a hitch. I picked up some Scotch for him and never had a problem with getting money from him. So don't worry about picking up a $200 bottle of wine since if he says he will pay for it he will.

Sean,

Thanks for the nice words. If you ever need anything let me know.
