I have a bottle of Bowmore 1972 Single Malt Scotch Whisky, I am not a great fan of whisky and this bottle was handed down to me from my granddad.

I am wanting to sell this bottle, I am wondering if anyone would be interested or would know anyone else who would be, or how I could sell it. I have had a chat with Bonhams but their prices worry me a bit. Bonhams have valued this at about GBP 600.

The bottle is full, sealed, with original box and is in pristine condition. Bottle Number 443/466.

Pictures can be provided if needed. Any help would be great.

Thanks,
Jon

What worries you about their prices? their valuation or their fees?

Last bottle sold for £720 at SWA
so less fess etc £600 is a fair price

In fact, isn't it exactly the same bottle that was sold at SWA?
The numbers match exactly...

Oh dear what a blunder.

It is amazing how many grandads manage to leave expensive collectable bottles of whisky lying around.

I am looking forward to his second post Laughing
