hi all

i have a collection of around 400 bottles of whiskey, currently sending a batch to auction tomorrow but struggling to find a way to valuate my bottles in order to decide if i need to put a reserve on the more expensive ones

can anyone assist on how they valuate their collection, useful sites etc.

many thanks

p.s if anyone is interested in looking at collection at auction feel free to ask and ill send auction details.

The obvious answer is to look up the historical data from your chosen auction house. They will have a search facility in their website.
For a comparison do the same on other on-line auction sites.

I would agree with Bobbys advice.

Here are a couple of sites to look up old auctions right up to the present time:
