Thats just taking the mickey particularly when it is available for £398 from Amazon, you wonder if anyone falls for it.

Amazon are also taking pre-orders for the complete set, priced £398, see here https://amzn.to/2CCgFmH |

Completely Agree. Guess they are chancing people looking at current auc prices and thinking they have a bargain! |

Am I missing something here lol?
If anyone on this forum wants this 'set of tubes', they now know to go to Amazon.
So, who cares what the price is elsewhere? |

I think they may simply be highlighting the sleazy whisky retailers that are now popping up online such as this whiskyfix shop |

such a marketing scam. If you look online, people are already seeing some of the GOT releases on clearance at costco for $24-$30 USD.
Check out 'rolexwhisky''s post on instagram from 5 days ago. |

Anyone happen to have tasted the Game of Thrones Dalwhinnie or Talisker? I see they are available on Amazon from today and I am considering these 2, just wondered if anyone had tasted them yet and had an opinion on them. |

I've just had the Dalwhinnie, Oban and Lagavulin delivered. Dalwhinnie is lovely! Sweet, vanilla, apples, pears, and a bit of spice is what I've got from the first dram. Very easy to drink. This is the first Dalwhinnie I've tried so I can't compare to others. Hope this helps. |

Strange as the Royal Lochnager bottles single are going on auction at the moment for 320 each crazy money. |
