If you are selling to free space, do consider professional storage. Several regulars on ThePortForum.com store Port at Seckford Wines; others use Fine+Rare; others, needing greater accessibility, use Big Yellow in Fulham; some use or have used Octavian Vaults. If the quantity is small, the cost will be modest.

Re: Buying or Selling Port
Could the "grubby old bottles" sticky be somehow moved to below the "Selling port, excellent, start here" sticky in the Selling Port sub-forum? Such an arrangement would seem more intuitive for new visitors.

I'll bump the locked thread when back at a proper computer.

I have changed the status of Tom's thread to "Stickie" so that it stays at the top of the forum posts but no longer appears in the header section.
