Greetings from Spain!

Spending a week with my folks and have come across several of the older JW collection. This is the one with Black Label 12, Green Label 15, Gold Label 18 and Blue Label 20cl bottles.

I suspect that they're from 5 - 10 years ago. They're in decent nick and a decent price. What do people think would be fair for these and are they even worth it?

I saw the newer style set in John Lewis recently for Â£100.

As far as I am aware, the newer style versions do not differ in their make up from the old ones, although I'm unsure of the platinum 18, whether that was a direct replacement for the Gold 18. There were rumours that the green label make up was different although denied by Diageo.

I had a few sets of the old version in the past which I got from travel retail, they were great value. I think it was replaced by the new version of the Johnnie Walker Collection around 4-5 years ago.
