Is winemaking guear that much more expensive in the states?
Here the standard price for a 6gallon carboy is 25$....there was a promotion last month where you could get one for 2$ if you bought 2 wine kits!!

Maybe I should start to export....

Sweet!!! Glad to hear that!!!

I just got 7 emails from Amazon -one for each carboy- they all shipped today for delivery on Monday.

And none too soon! My freezer is packed with frozen fruit and the shelves are full of juice

Jeff A real good price is around $30-32 dollars and they go up to $45.00 depending on where you buy. I also picked up some 3 gallon carboys from the same place on Amazon. I think the guys down in Pittsburgh are paying around $25.00 from a major produce warehouse.

Bad news on carboy

So UPS showed up at my door with a big box - i knew it was my carboy!!! He a disgusted look on his face - he shook the box - and it sounded like a rattle.

I was broke into about a 100 pieces!! So he is taking it back to report it and get another

So to all who ordered one - be sure you are home to check it when they deliver!!

Bummer! If 50% of yours are broken, I guess I should expect 3 or 4 broken ones on Monday :-(

I would definitely check them out before UPS leaves it at your door step.
