June Scotch Buy - DONE

[AVB]

Didn't get what you wanted for Father's Day? Make it up to yourself here!

RULES:
As always you must be a member in good standing who has joined CP prior to March 1, 2008 and has at least filled out your profile, done an intro and has at least 30 posts prior to today. PM me with your order, I will not count the posts until after the PM orders are done so you may miss out

The prices are delivered to your door and there are a limited number of available openings so first come first served. I have to order in groups of 6 but if you want to pay more for shipping I can order less. As you may have noticed prices have gone up anywhere from 1-4% from the last buy in April......blame it on increased demand and the cost of shipping in general.

There are a few good buys in this batch. The Balvenie Signature is new, The Royal Island blends are something you won't see again the 18 yo Panamanian rum and 2 different Cuban rums just for some examples

All boxes are full.

I'm eventually going to take part in one of these. I decided when I missed out on the last one I would catch the next, I guess that didn't happen . Oh well, I'll have to keep an open eye and jump in early next time.

AVB, just want to throw you a thanks for doing another Scotch buy. I may not yet have taken part in one, but I do appreciate you making this available to CP.
