Data & Prices

The market price is the lowest price a reputable/trusted merchant is currently offering the wine for sale at.

BordeauXchange collects and verifies market prices for thousands of wines daily from Liv-ex. The algorithim behind calculating the market price evaluates a pool of over 1 billion data points to determine the most accurate price for each wine. The market price you see will often match the lowest offer price on wine searcher.

When buying and selling through a traditional merchant you can typically expect to buy the wine above the market price. Then when it comes to selling, you will receive 10-15% (or more) below the market price due to the industry standard 10% sales commission. Most trades on BordeauXchange are executed within 5% of the market price, providing much better value for both the buyer and seller.
