A friend just called me. He buys abandoned and delinquint storage units. Seems he bought one with some big 6 gallon glass jugs. he said he heard they were for wine making and asked if I needed any. I told him what they were and that I had more than i can use...I asked how many.. he said AT LEAST NINETY!! aLL BUT 8-10 ARE 6 GALLON ONES. Anyway he lives in BLANCHESTER OHIO and asked me to put his number on here. I am not sure if that is allowed so if anyone is interested PM me and I will give you his number.
 
OK I can't find a rule against it and i DO have his permission to do this so.. his name is Jason. I will vouch for him being a decent guy. His number is 513-236-1897...I have no idea what he wants for them. I told him what they sell for new and that I bought 2 dozen big ones for 3 bucks each because used they are WAY less...so here ya go.
 
if he was in columbus, oh I would take advantage of this, I could use a couple but traveling almost to cincy isn't worth it really.

you bought 24 6 gallon glass carboys for 72usd.. and that is the price he is going with.. Just want to make sure that is right before everyone starts calling him..

NO...I told him what I bought some for. I have NO IDEA what he is gonna ask for em. I got VERY lucky and the guy I got em from was a junker who had no idea what they were and he was happy he made money on em....
 
I'm thinking this too, cause where did he get that deal? Holy Crap.

I posted about em on here.. the guy ran a scrap type business and was getting them from some company. I had to REALLY clean em but the supply is over.
 
OK GUYS you have to call my friend on this. As I stated above I have NO IDEA what he is gonna be asking for them. I am getting PM's about em but everything I know is posted here.

yep.... there were a LOT more of em but I got hosed by another brewer. I sold him 6 of mine for my cost, and was dumb enough to tell him where I got em.. he went behind my back and bought all of the rest of them before I could get back there. The sellr thought we were partners so he sold em to him.
