Default Johnnie Walker Oldest- Best Way to Sell?

Hi there,

I have a bottle of Johnnie Walker Oldest in excellent condition that was passed onto me by my father. I was just wondering if you could shed some light on the best way to sell it?

It's in its original box and also has a little booklet that comes with it.

I have tried to attached some photos as well, but can't seem to do this. Could you instruct me how to post photo's as seems I can only insert a URL of an image rather than upload from computer.

Cheers

Matt

Hi Matt, there are two things against at being sold, the first is that the level is well down into the body of the bottle and unless it's a very old bottle that's strike one, the other is that it's a blend and again unless it's very old there's no market for iut.
Far better have a dram and enjoy it

Default Bottle level

Thanks for your input. I believe the main photo of the bottle is taken a little from above making the level look a bit lower than it is.
I measured the level and it's 2.5cm from the bottom of the cap. Is this unusually low for an old bottle?
The bottle is definitely old as my father had it for a very long time, exactly how long that is I'm unsure. The only reason the level has been compromised is due to age.
Yes I would be interested in having the bottle's age discovered if possible, as I'm sure it would assist me in selling it.
Please let me know if your require anymore photos.
Your assistance is appreciated.
Cheers
Matt
