Our carrier choice is Australia Post, voted Australia's number 1 delivery company in 2001. All wine orders can be delivered to any nominated address in Australia, including Post Office boxes as an option.

Australia Post will deliver Monday to Friday between the hours of 9.00 am - 5.00 pm. Most of our customers give instructions to leave the wine in a safe place as this is by far the easiest way to ensure you get your wine on time. If the person accepting the delivery is out and there are no delivery instructions, Australia Post will leave a card in the post box to collect at the local Post Office. Please note that we cannot accept instructions to contact you as Australia Post couriers cannot call before delivery.

The diagram below shows the standard Australia Post delivery times, listed in business ( working) days during non Christmas or holiday periods.
Please note that these are intended as a guide only, particularly with regards to isolated regional areas. We do not and cannot provide guarantees on delivery times under any circumstances, mainly due to the limitations of Australia Post. If you require specialised freight options please contact us on admin@winesale.com.au



WineSale shall not be liable for any delay in delivering your wine if that delay or failure is caused by circumstances beyond our control such as war, riot, civil commotion, malicious damage, compliance with any law or governmental order, rule, regulation or direction, fire, flood, storm or act of God, failure of Internet Service Provider (ISP) or telecommunications provider in connection with the performance of the WineSale website.

Please note that all delivery prices are subject to change without notice.

Stolen Wine and Breakages

If you give us specific instructions to leave your wine, (we prefer that if no-one is home the wine is then available for collection from the local Post Office), and the wine gets stolen, you are responsible. Under special circumstances we will consider replacing the wine free of charge. If there are any breakages, please notify us by calling or 02 9643 8627 or email us at admin@winesale.com.au

Returns

If some or all of the bottles of wine in a case are broken, corked, oxidised or not of merchantable quality when they are delivered, please notify us as soon as possible. You may choose either to return the whole case for a refund or a replacement.

We will refund you as soon as the wine is picked up and received back into our warehouse.

Any wines collected by Australia Post must be in their original box to avoid further breakages, where possible.

Quality

If you purchase any wines from us and you're not happy with it, we will credit your credit card for the amount of that bottle. If you bought multiple bottles of a particular bottle, then we will refund them as well, including freight, as soon as we have collected the rest of the wine from you and it is received back into our warehouse; provided that you have only opened one bottle.

Availablility

Wine is an agricultural product and runs out from time to time. If you order a case of wine, we may substitute some of the bottles by a different vintage or wine of equal quality and value guaranteed. We don't use this as an opportunity to advertise a good wine and supply inferior products. If you ever have a cause to disagree with our choice of replacements on any of the bottles that we have changed over, we will give you a credit for the first bottle and will need to collect any remaining bottles and credit you once they are received back into our warehouse

Change of Details

You are responsible for notifying WineSale of any change of name, address, payment details or other relevant details by calling our customer care department on 02 9643 8627. Alternatively, you may email us at admin@winesale.com.au Failure to do so may result in you being ultimately responsible for any misdirected items (with regards to deliveries going to the wrong address).

Customer Satisfaction

If you are dissatisfied with our performance in any way, please contact our customer care department on 02 9643 8627. You can also email us at admin@winesale.com.au . At WineSale, we aim to deal with all enquiries fairly, confidentially and quickly. We will acknowledge your contact as soon as possible. We try to resolve most issues immediately, however, where this is not possible, we will keep you informed about progress until a satisfactory resolution has been achieved. We are continually improving our service; so if you have any particular suggestions or feedback about how we can improve or service you better, please email us at admin@winesale.com.au

  4. Sparkling wines and Champagnes can be volatile due to the build up of gasses so extra care should be taken when opening these.
