Title: Booze and Alcohol
Post by: billybass on October 03, 2011, 04:46 pm
I always wondered why no one offered any liquor on SR.  I'm sure there would be plenty of people willing to buy some, I know I would!

Probably because most of us are over 21 already.

If you have a certain request I can accommodate it, just shoot me a message either here or on SR.

I imagine it's because the majority of SR members are of age and can purchase their own alcohol, but I suppose there are certain types or brands that aren't available everywhere.

If there's something in particular you'd like then you should make a specific request.

yeah, there has been alcohol listed on SR in the past,
but I imagine it just hasn't sold well, for the same reasons others have mentioned.

It could be nice for specialty orders though,
especially for stuff that's only regionally available.

a similar idea goes for tobacco sales on the 'Road

Better to buy a fake ID and then get your own booze unless you need something regional like moonshine or absinthe or some such. Would be a much better use of your money in the long run than to keep buying it here. There has to be a healthy markup to make it worthwhile to sell it to you. You will probably pay a LOT if you buy booze on here.

This was the doubt I had about it, it seems like the price would be crazy inflated, unlike weed and other completely illicit drugs, which don't really have "set" prices. Not to mention are way easier of getting.

Alcohols like hard-to-find-scotch and absynthe might go over well, not to mention French wines that they won't sell overseas.
Also, some muslim countries do not allow alcohol, so they would be a good market if you could figure out a good way to package it.
