    Last year it seemed to be secondary

    As with anything.... Can only charge what people are willing to pay. Last year people paid the higher prices.

    If people are willing to pay like that again ..

    Bake was 750, She Neva Seen was 400.

    I believe 1 white label and 1 purple label went out at 1500?

    Shows that I don't know the secondary on bake.

    But sells for 750 and someone let's it go for double. Nice profit.

    Wonder what's the breaking point for people? If he charged 8?9? Would they still pay

    I mean there was only a couple available, so all they need is one or two people to be okay paying that even though hundreds won’t

    My comments about breaking point and price were in ref to others mentioning secondary and keeping it classy.

    For me..I'm not paying...so I've got no horse in the race

    Don’t know if there was ever a list, but the discussion on this thread about last year starts halfway down page 45

    A lot of his beers from the last two years.

    Bunch of Wakefest raffle beers.

    Antique blue was 400 and antique coco was like 600-700. Basically priced at 65/75% of their secondary price from what I remember.

    Could have sworn it was more. That or the price changed from session to session(as different groups were let in).

    I'm prob just wrong. The prices were be relayed to me by a proxy last year.

    that’s a good point, i guess if i were balling out and wanted to buy a bottle, i’d rather pay less and have the money go to the brewery and not some random profiteer.

    But even then, from what i remember last year, they made it so that there was only one bottle of each raffle beer available to the five people they let in at a time. So if you were gunning for Bake you basically had to hope you were the first person in each group of five OR that the dudes in front of you didn’t have that kind of money ready.

    But as you pointed out, most people knew it was an easy way to make a 100% return on investment, and i want to say about a dozen were sold that day. There was a lot of other really cool stuff too though like a DFPF verticle set, DB la nada, the BA boss tycoons
