Looking for a bottle of 1996 Salon preferably from someone who purchased on release. My wife is a huge Champagne fan, and neither of us have ever had a chance to try a Salon.
I’d like to trade, but am also open to trade plus cash. Most of my cellar is California-centric, but I also have a smattering of '03 and '05 Bordeaux. Here’s a starter list of what I can offer, and obviously I’ll trade multiples for a single bottle of the Salon.
I deleted my post. In response to Truett Welsh’s ‘WTF’ (no need to curse, Truett, use your words)
Not trying to be a dick, trying to find out where '96 Salon trades on this board. Helpful to all, especially people like John who seem to want to buy some of it.
Want to attract interest in your post, need 2 things
A) more people responding. People open threads where other people have posted. Posting on threads helps.
B) specific bids and offers for specific wine. General ‘I want this and I have this mountain of stuff to trade’ never gets anything done. This is a well documented Behavioral Science issue. See here. http://www.nytimes.com/2010/02/27/your-money/27shortcuts.html?_r=0
Peter take my post here fir what it is worth but posting in the commerce corner is not to create discussions. It is solely and exclusively yo buy or sell. Whether a person posts in a manner consistent with what you believe to be the most effective or appropriate manner is irrelevant. If you truly believed you had some valuable insight you should have used the pm function.
P.S. I disagree with your A and B suggestions but that is my own personal experience.
Folks, the rules are clearly posted atop this forum. Because the OP had to report several violations of the rules, even after posting in the thread a reminder of those rules, I had to delete some posts. To keep from being restricted in use of Commerce Corner, please abide by the rules
