Port Glasses

Post by Alex Bridgeman »

I may have an opportunity to purchase Riedel Vinum port glasses at about £10 per glass (depending on exchange rate) provided I can buy enough of them.

Is there anyone in the UK who would be interested in buying at that price? If so, what sort of quantity would you be interested in? No commitment at this stage, just me trying to guage whether the likely level of interest would make this worth pursuing.

Doesn't sound like a deal to me. How much are they normally in your parts?

If I remember correctly from when I last bought some - £18 per glass.

it's 15$/glass here in the states.

i've managed to find them even as low as 5$ when sales go around.
