where members have asked others to keep an eye out for specific Ports, I thought it might be an idea to have a ‟wanted” thread where those of us who are after specific bottles could advertise. I’m particularly thinking of odd bottles needed to fill out collections or for anniversaries (&c.). The general wish to buy good Port at good prices goes without saying!Hopefully we may find that other
members have them already and a swap could occur; otherwise perhaps flagging them up here might mean that if anyone has some and is searching the web, planing to sell, they might come across this thread and offer them.I’ll be happy to update this top post as necessary.
