• Although we are usually able to ship your order on the same day, occasionally, demand for limited supplies will deplete our stock of a particular item. If this is the case, the item will be placed on backorder and we will notify you via e-mail. If you would like to receive the item when it becomes available, your credit card will be charged for the item only when it is shipped.



• The charge to your credit card will become finalized when the order has shipped EXCEPT on Future and Pre-Sale items. Those charges will be captured shortly after the order has been placed.



• Any order that is refused or returned after three attempts to deliver shall be refunded for the amount of the product ONLY. The shipping charges will not be refunded.



• All wines are sold in FL, and title passes to the buyer in FL. We make no representation to the legal rights of anyone to ship or import wines into any state outside of FL. The buyer is solely responsible for the shipment of wines. By placing an order, you authorize us to act on your behalf to engage a common carrier to deliver your order to you.



• For wines that are ten years old or older (industry standard being five years old or older), it is the policy of Liquor Locker that these wines are purchased at the buyers risk.



• Should any product be damaged during shipping, please contact us immediately so we can 1)ship you another order, and 2) so we can pursue a claim with the shipping company.



• We do not recommend ground delivery for wine orders. This is because of the potential heat exposure during warm weather conditions and extreme cold during the winter months. We cannot be held responsible for damaged wines due to the selection of ground delivery for your order. We strongly urge you to consider the effect of weather conditions when selecting a shipping method. If you notify us that you would like your order to be put on hold until temperature conditions are more suitable for shipping, we will do so at no additional cost.



• If you receive a wine that is off-condition (has gone bad), please contact our Customer Service department by email or call 941-377-LIQR (5477) for a return authorization. There will be a 10% restocking fee for these returns and shipping charges are not refundable.
