Hi , ... just a comment about "sale prices" in general & Pendery's in specific . here in BC, one often sees wine etc., sale priced (at the gov't monopoly store). my experiences have varied, but ... more often than not ... these products are past their prime. (i'm looking for a bargain -- not a disappointment at dinner, & trip back to return the product for refund) my purchases from Pendery's during last year's "sale" were similarly mixed. frankly ... most were Well past prime, some plainly oxidised. and there was quite the "joust" in getting a reasonable shipping agreement. here's hoping that Harry's is offering a terrific Value for his customers ... (i'd ask up-front about the best-before dating, and get price guarantees for S&H costs) regards peter g
