- Seller: vo152
- Location: United Kingdom PH3 1RA
- Lot #: M-0026169
Available for auction is a rare collection of Porsche launch memorabilia. This genuine collection of showroom-displayed wine/champagne glasses and champagne cooler were produced and used for the launch of Porsches 996 model. The cooler is made from aluminum and measures 22cm x 24cm. The glasses measure 14cm x 6cm and are of excellent quality. According to the seller, the champagne cooler does have very slight markings but is still in exceptional condition. All of the logos are etched into the items. There are no stickers or decals.

Good afternoon everyone,
First of all I would like to apologize to all of you for the delay in my response to the question raised by @jattilah regarding the shipping, and for not having any shipping estimates listed for this auction. I have been MIA as they say and I am genuinely sorry.
I have a family member in hospital at the moment who was taken in just as the auction started with a serious condition. With the existing pressures of my work it has made the whole situation that much more stressful. I do sincerely apologize for this and I will do my very best to be attentive to any questions or needs going forward.
The cooler and the glasses should fit into a reasonably sized box but I would need to ensure everything is packaged safely and well padded. Insurance for the final amount will come as standard just in case.
The estimated cost of shipping to the following regions are as follows:
UK - £30
Europe - €40
U.S.A. - $60
I do not charge for packaging as I have access to enough materials and 9 times out of 10 I personally deliver the packages to the local UPS depot to avoid as much additional handling as possible.
I must say that the price kindly quoted by @cerb1958 was a great help and I would agree that is quite accurate. Thank you @cerb1958!
The exact cost will be determined when everything is fully packaged and I will be completely transparent with regards to the actual cost based on the final dimensions of the package, the weight and the value.
I always use UPS to undertake the safe delivery of my Father's collection and each item will be safely packaged, and as I said previously the items will be fully insured up to the full value after the sale has been finalized.
I want to thank each and every single one of you for showing an interest in this auction.
I also want to extend my personal thanks to @balas and @Rhubbert for taking a leap of faith and for submitting your bids. My family are very grateful, thank you.
I wish you all the very best of success.
Kind regards
Bid in the amount of $250
@cerb1958 £51.38 is a lot more workable, thanks.
@jattilah I rechecked - somehow it had defaulted to delivery to UK! However, I went through the process of putting in complete addresses- London to Denver - and still 5kg and 30cm x 30cm x 30 cm and I was given a FedEx quote of £51.38 UK pounds. So not £8.16 but also not $372.07
@cerb1958 I just quoted on ups.com to ship from UK PH3 1RA to US (Woodinville, WA 98072) and the least expensive is UPS Expedited for $423.35. DHL is a relative bargain for $372.07.
That website you posted says £8.16. There's no way anything is getting shipped anywhere internationally for that. What am I missing? Did you miss "to the states" in my post?

it's not very expensive -copy and paste the link
Is there any way to estimate cost for shipping to the states?
