    So before I venture to trade these, I want to make sure I have the "blends" correct due to the rainbow of wax colors that they released. These are '13 releases.

    My assumption is (left to right)
    High Wests
    Four Roses
    Buffalo Trace
    Makers Mark

    Can one of you fine individuals confirm my assumption or correct it.

    Greatly appreciated in advance.

    Greatly appreciated. My problem is I'm a little color blind and don't want to come across as a dipshit. True or not

    Happy New Years

    I have quite a bit of Eclipse and can't remember all of the colors some times and get to lazy to look them up. So I bought a nice fine tip paint pen and mark the names on the back side of the bottle. Done

    How's the trade value on these? Looking to see if I can get a bite on BC Van/Prop. Not sure though. Them is some hard suckers to get a hand.

    Gonna be tough because I know that I've seen Eclipse sitting on shelves in IL almost everytime I go there

    I think very few Eclipse variants could land a Prop 1:1. Will take multiples with most variants and the $4$ thought goes flying right out the window. I never expect a $4$ value with these beers since theyre priced a little too high.

    You have two things working against you. The fact that these bottles are still sitting on shelves on the east and west coast and none of these were the sought after versions (pappy, ec). Your best bet is $ for $ some limited beer. I recently traded two barre aged bombs and a yellow rose for a ec 12. Or you can hope for an eclipse fan that just wants them that bad but not enough for a prop...good luck
