The relaunched drink Moray Cup is already being resold on eBay for a marked-up price – just 24 hours after its long-awaited comeback.
Fans queued from 7.30am on Friday to get the first taste of the limited-edition fizzy drink, which had been out of production for seven years.
Customers lined up at Deveron Direct’s Macduff warehouse as they waited to get their hands on the north-east staple.
Police were even called as the volume of cars threatened to get out of hand in the Moray industrial estate.
The red “fruit flavour” fizzy juice is exclusively available from the wholesaler in person.
However, bottles of the drink have already found their way onto eBay, where they are being sold at a much higher price.
Bidding on one listing reached £17 for a single bottle – well above the price of £15 for a 12-pack from Devern Direct.
The Press and Journal was present on Friday as hundreds of people queued for hours to get their hands on the nostalgic fizzy juice.
Moray Cup was originally produced by Macduff-based Sangs and later Cott Macduff.
The business was then bought out in 2018 by Refresco, the company which now makes the new product.
