I think the other way to be honest, i think the high time for bargain lower end bottles of malts and blends was about 2 years ago,
Looking at the prices of some of the smaller auctions this week like ...

I havenâ€™t bought as much lately from auctions as I have in the past but i agree you can often find some good whiskies for drinking at good prices.

I think Bimber has been well marketed and s ...

Yep, those are leave well alone. Bunnahabhain never sells well on secondary, and sometimes Bimber can be had at reasonable prices which is odd considering how quickly they sell out.

Hi guys, just thought I would mention the good side of auctions. I recently bought some good bottles from auction and just wondered if any of you use auctions to get hold of reasonably priced bottles? ...
