Anyone know what this would be worth? Is it rare?
This is not a very common bottle and that’s why you have not received many responses. I found one – just like yours – sold this year at Bonhams NYC for about $400. So I will estimate it would resell at about $300.
Justin:
After checking with another cognac collector I confirm your Pierre Ferrand set would be valued at about $350, more or less matching my earlier guess.
Would you be interested in selling it?
Anyone else?
I think your bottle worth much more, so don’t sell it for $350, keep it until somebody will give you a good money, I would say $500+ or even more
Yuri,
Any good places to sell this? Would you be interested?
This site and Cognac Forum are among the best places to sell cognac because you get many cognac collectors looking at your bottle and the fees are minimal. If you put a more popular cognac for sale you would see numerous bids quickly rising but this is not a bottle in very high demand among collectors so very few collectors are interested.
If you sold through Bonhams and a buyer paid $500 for it you would still only get $300 (60%) of the total price listed after auction fees. So I would typically not recommend going the auction route unless the bottle you are selling is in extremely high demand and you can get a “bidding war” going between multiple buyers.
I think that Yuri should purchase your cognac for $500 (or more) since he feels so sure it is worth it… Why not? If I thought it was worth $500 I would certainly pay that for it. The value of a cognac is exactly what you can find a buyer willing to pay for it, everything else is just talk. But his advice to keep it is just fine. If stored properly your Cognac will go up in value with time.
Yuri,
Would you be interested in purchasing this?
Thanks
Hi,
I may offer $400, including shipping cost within the US.
Thanks
Anyone else interested?
