Is there a place in Charlotte that has ordered any?
First Friday is coming up in 2 weeks and would give some of us a chance to get some.

We haven't gotten any orders from Charlotte. The stores can choose to order but most don't know it exists. Those of you going on and custom ordering are usually the first people they've ever heard talk about it.

That store in Hillsborough for example Had someone custom order and they decided to get a 6 pack of bottles after that on their own.

Mystic in Durham holds our stock and we take from there as needed to fill NC orders. Since mystic can legally sell, you can buy direct at their location. Everywhere else in NC must go through a abc store. If you request special order, they should be able to help you if they aren't pricks about it.

Let me know if you do and have any issues. The holidays are coming and we expect a surge in orders on top of now fulfilling distributor orders in TN, Louisiana, Georgia, and Florida.

Wisconsin and Texas are in the middle of the paperwork to start getting orders as well if I'm understanding the boss correctly.

To clarify this, Mystic has this stuff on the shelf alongside their own product? Or do you need to know the right guy that gets it from the back for you?

Good question. You have to ask for it. He obviously would rather you buy his product being that it's his store. But he owns a small stake in 2a since we use his facility so he also has incentive(a smaller bit) to sell our stuff.

They move things around a lot there and our cases take up space so more than likely they are in the back.

Thank you for bringing that up tim, completely slipped my mind. He should never be out of 2a since he holds it for us until we sell out.
 
Please let me know if any of you are told he's out. There are currently around 1000 bottles at his location.

Edit- 1000 bottles confirmed. We are low on cases. More coming next week from Florida. Should be first half of the week.

The mods are handling everything from the collection of funds to the random selection of who wins. Contact one of them direct. I imagine they can work something out, but i don't want to speak for them.
 
PS - I dont drink, not had a sip in over 2 decades. Funny I got a bourbon badge now lol
It's for a good cause. It will come with a shirt and 2 glasses also. At the very least you keep those and gift the bottle in the case. Not too shabby.
 
Every NC ABC can special order ?
They have the ability to yes. Some make it a policy not to do it... others will happily do it for you. It's a store to store decision.

After jan 1st we will be in the abc warehouse. Im betting once stores can add it to their usual order, they'll do it more often and you'll see it on more shelves.

A lot of discussion around it here, in case you havenā€™t seen this thread:

Thanks, I didnā€™t know if the lady behind the counter was just being lazy and didnā€™t want to do it, or was telling the truth.šŸ¤£

Counter canā€™t do it in my experience. It needs to be ā€œSpecial Orderā€. Counter just looks in the catalogue.
 
A little late is better than not at all! Plus no one would have purchased once they seen I had entered, everyone knows how lucky I am. šŸ¤£šŸ¤£šŸ¤£

Ok serious note, thanks to everyone who made the opportunity possible. This really is the best place on the interwebz!
 
Is there a way to do it without using PayPal? I tried, but they wouldnā€™t let me pay even as a guest due to their locking my account years ago for a mythical violation of their terms (someone put ā€œGunbrokerā€ in the comment line on a payment for a magazine that complied with their terms. No appeal. Still have my money, but that is another story).
