Bidding advice
You can place bids either under the lot image on the main auction page or on the right side of the individual lot page.
Placing a Maximum Bid
Use the "Set your bid limit" button on the left side of the bidding panel to enter the highest amount you're willing to bid on a lot. Our system will then automatically raise your bid in set increments if you’re outbid, up to your maximum. If someone bids above your set limit, we’ll notify you by email so you can choose whether to increase your bid.
Placing a Single Bid
Alternatively, place a single bid by selecting the button on the right side of the bidding panel. The button displays the amount needed for the next increment. For example, if the current highest bid is £50.00, the button will show "+ £55.00" (reflecting a £5.00 increment).
Incremental Bidding Explained
Our system increases bids based on preset increments, as shown in the table below, whether you set a maximum bid or make a single bid.
Bottle Details
Booker's 8 Year Old Small Batch Bourbon
This bourbon is hard to find outside of the USA, which is surprising considering everyone loves it.
This is eight years old and bottled at cask strength. The Booker's brand is a subsidiary of Jim Beam and was named after former master distiller, Booker Noe. His son Fred is now the current master distiller and echoes the reviewers sentiments, on record as having said, \"if you’re drinking Booker’s, you better have your pajamas on!” Beam claim the name is intended to evoke memories Noe Snr's favourite chair and big personality, but the whisky itself is clearly as big on character, with big vanilla notes, cornbread, oak, allspice and cinammon.
It's said to be Beam's long-term ambition to elevate Booker's to one of its high end premium brands, limiting its release schedule, so this is as good a time as any to stock up.
Bottle number 013367.
