 Posted: Mon May 09, 2011 12:28 pm Post subject: Are these Macallan miniatures worth anything? |
 |
|
Last year my mum found some miniatures in the shed.
They are Macallan with 1973 written on them and bottled in 1991.
I would add a photo but I don't have on atm.
Thanks for any help. |

| Depending on the condition of the bottles and the level of the whisky in the bottles (miniatures are prone to evapouration) they should be worth a few pound as Macallan is often sought after by whisky drinkers and collectors. |

| They are in perfect condition. It's a shame they aren't worth much as I could really do with the money lol |

| you should try your luck with them on ebay, Macallan can sometimes surprise you and fetch way more than you think. |

These miniatures are worth quite a lot in good condition with good fill levels.
How many do you have, what dates etc. If you like I can give you an approximate value based on previous ebay listings.
They are from a series Macallan have done as 18yr old whiskies through the 60's 70's 80's 90's etc. The 70cl bottles are worth anything from£100-£500+ in auction depending on age. Your miniatures could fetch £10, £20 or more it all depends on the age, condition, fill level and who sees them (Ebay) - miniatures are becoming very collectible because the full size bottles are just too expensive for most people. |
