Minimum Alcohol Pricing
A law has been introduced in Scotland which stipulates the minimum price that alcohol can be sold for. It aims to target problem drinking and save lives from alcoholism. To comply with the law we have been forced to introduce a 'starting price' for all alcoholic Lots in the auction. This means that a 70cl bottle of 40% alcohol cannot be sold for less than £14.00. A cask strength whisky will have a higher start price. A miniature will have a lower start price.
