I came here for the first time on my way to the gym. This is the newly built one on the island. It is well built, clean, and fill of liquor.
Of course I looked at my favorites which is tequila and bourbon. Most folks will put their allocated Bourbons behind the counter. This particular branch of PJ's Liquor is extra confident and just puts it near all the other bourbon.
This particular branch of PJs seems to think that it's very good to rip off their customers. I suppose that's one way to earn loyalty. It also says a lot about their owner and where his priorities weigh. Arguably this is the reason that some folks don't really care to help the small businesses out and would rather flocked supermarkets or things are standardized.
Putting that dramatic introduction on the side let's actually consider some prices there. Eagle rare, 12 year: $200; 10 year
$150. Stagg, 10 yr 26c: $150. EH Taylor small batch, $200; Barrel cut, $300. For those who knows what is MSRP, state set prices , and fair market price, these are all in the area where you shouldn't be spending a dime towards these. Even for the "market dictated value," this guy is pricing at ridiculous tiers.
Should they be allowed to make some money for having allocated, difficult to get items? Yeah, sure, mark it up some. It is a business, after all. The overly aggressive numbers reek of gluttony and greed. That being said the owner is a kind, soften spoken fellow. Interestingly, his communication and the prices he is charging simply dont add up.
