I looked up a wine I bought years ago on Winebid for another post, and if you’re a long-time customer there you can look up purchases going back to late 2002 and see what you paid for certain wines. I found a selection of interesting things I bought between 2003-2007, most of which I couldn’t afford anymore.
I recommend doing this only if you’re okay realizing how cheap you used to be able to get things like:
1994 Mas de Daumas Gassac (Rouge) - 3 for $45.00 (when it reads like this that’s total…so $15/each)
1988 Cerbaiola (Salvioni) Brunello di Montalcino - 2 for $60.00

These are my purchases from 2003. Of particular note is the Romanee St. Vivant which was never delivered. They refunded me the purchase price and told me they accidentally dropped it. I always wondered (probably unfairly) if someone there really wanted to try that wine…

Nice lists, Jay. I think we were looking for the same type of things. I had some Muller-Catoir stuff and Bize, too.
And Victor, I still find some decent bargains at WB and a few other places (picked up a case of '11 Folin-Arbelet Pernand Blanc for $10/bottle last year), but there was a lot more cool stuff available back then. But if you have a line on Roulot Tessons for $25, let me know!
Those were prices without commission, though…so that makes it a little easier, right? Not really, but I’m trying to help here. Even those were 13% I think, back in the day.
