naamanf Posted April 17, 2012 Report Posted April 17, 2012 Not a big fan of the Ebay booze scalpers, even though I did purchase a bottle of Utopias 9 years ago to do the same. Weird, I still have the bottle Hope the beer is good and we still have friends in CA come release time. Quote
Augsburger Posted April 17, 2012 Report Posted April 17, 2012 Well I just renewed my office lease for another three years. Quote
jp11801 Posted April 17, 2012 Report Posted April 17, 2012 yeah I went a bit crazy at $300+ but this is very special beer and it is a lot of it. More crazy is having Midnight Sun beer that is shipped from Alaska to San Diego shipped from San Diego to me. Quote
emelius Posted April 17, 2012 Report Posted April 17, 2012 grab a Midnight Sun M next time & maybe you'll break even:)... Quote
Aura Posted April 19, 2012 Author Report Posted April 19, 2012 Saw some great news on the Eclipse ordering page for everyone who missed out on Rebel, Bernheim, and EW - We've had a chance to go through and clean up all of the orders in the system, and it turns out that there were enough duplicates to allow us to re-release a very limited number of the three varieties that sold out on the first day (Eclipse™ aged in Rebel Yell®, Evan Williams®, and Bernheim Wheat® barrels). To make sure that the process is fair and everyone gets an equal shot at them, those three styles will be available on Monday, April 23 at 8:00am Pacific time. So for those of you who missed the first go around - be sure to set your alarm! Of course, futures for the other three styles (Eclipse aged in Elijah Craig® 12, Rittenhouse® Rye, and Old Fitzgerald® barrels) are still available and you can place an order right now. Don't forget, the bottle limits will still apply to the total combined order for any given individual... meaning if you have already placed an order for 2012 futures, the bottle limits will be applied to your total of both orders. Cheers! Next Monday, 8 a.m. Pacific/10 a.m. Central/11 a.m. Eastern - be ready guys! Quote

naamanf Posted April 19, 2012 Report Posted April 19, 2012 18 each? probably I'm not that crazy. Quote
tyrion Posted April 23, 2012 Report Posted April 23, 2012 Thanks for the heads up. Jp texted me with about 15 minutes to go as a reminder. Without the text, I would not have remembered. He ended up getting shut out so 3 of the 6 are going to him. Quote
mikeymad Posted April 23, 2012 Report Posted April 23, 2012 I am sure I will regret not getting more futures.. will have to rely on getting extras at City Beer in November... Man that is a long time to wait to get a brew.... Quote
Aura Posted November 5, 2012 Author Report Posted November 5, 2012 (edited) Reposting here for visibility. I forgot to ask, is anyone going to Fifty Fifty for pick-ups? If not, anyone willing to receive my shipment and send to me in IL? According to our invoices, we have until this Saturday to get in touch with FiftyFifty and confirm shipping/pickup changes.

Voltron Posted November 5, 2012 Report Posted November 5, 2012 I am not going up there but I can receive and re-route. It is expensive because you have to pay for two shipments, but I will PM the address. Quote
mikeymad Posted November 5, 2012 Report Posted November 5, 2012 I cannot say I will make a trip - but I cannot say a trip may not happen, but already planned and paid for mine to ship. Doing a churn and burn shipping for Raffy.. could do it for a few more if needed like Al... (stupid booze laws)... PM if needed. Cheers, Mikey Quote
The Monkey Posted November 6, 2012 Report Posted November 6, 2012 Fuckity fuckity I forgot all about this. Quote
Augsburger Posted November 6, 2012 Report Posted November 6, 2012 /\ /\ /\ /\ Well you have two choices, Ebay or United Airlines. Quote
grawk Posted November 6, 2012 Report Posted November 6, 2012 I need to pay, but they now have greg's address for my beer Quote
naamanf Posted November 6, 2012 Report Posted November 6, 2012 Did you email or call them? I still have nothing and need a reshipper Quote
grawk Posted November 6, 2012 Report Posted November 6, 2012 emailed them, emailed her at the address they sent my original receipt from Quote
Aura Posted November 6, 2012 Author Report Posted November 6, 2012 Got setup for re-shipping from Al. Thanks Mikey and Greg for the additional offers though. Our Cali friends sure are gracious. This shit is expensive but Fifty Fifty only sends Eclipse variants to one of the best-known stores here in Chicago, and it sells out very quickly. I figure if I can stay under ~$30/bottle, this is probably worth it. Opening an Old Fitzgerald first. Quote
The Monkey Posted November 6, 2012 Report Posted November 6, 2012 Does anyone know of reputable reshippers in California. This is a service I could see myself using periodically. Quote
