- Our Services
1.1 Services. Our Services enable you to search for alcoholic beverages and other products (“Products”) and place orders. Although we stock some Products, we cannot stock every Product that we sell through our Services. We rely upon a network of independent vendors, breweries, retailers, manufacturers, and other licensed parties (collectively, “Vendors”) to offer all of the Products we list on our Services. We make every effort to ensure that the information on our Services is accurate and current, but we provide our Services, Products, and all Product information on an "as-is where-is" basis. We make no guarantees and expressly disclaim all representations or warranties of any kind with respect to our Services or any Products you find thereby. Company reserves the right to refuse or cancel any orders or offers made through our Services for any reason in our sole discretion, including without limitation if Products state an incorrect price, rebate or discount, or if they contain any other incorrect information or typographical errors. If your order is canceled we will contact you to explain why and refund any money you have paid us for that order.
If you wish to purchase Products through our Services, you may be asked to supply certain information relevant to the purchase including, without limitation, your credit card information, your driver’s license number, billing address, and shipping information. You represent and warrant that you have the legal right and authority to use any credit card, debit card, gift card, gift certificate, or coupon code utilized in connection with any transaction. By submitting such information, you grant to Company and to Vendors the right to provide such information to third parties consistent with our Privacy Policy.
1.2 Order Process. If we accept your order request, your credit or debit card will be charged for the amount of your purchase plus any additional fees necessary to fulfill your order. Your purchase is on an “as-is where-is” basis. Once the charge is authorized, title to the Products transfers to you and you authorize us and direct us to prepare your order for pickup, local delivery, or shipment to you, either by packaging your order ourselves or working with the appropriate and designated Vendors. Your order request, pick-up, delivery or shipment may be declined for any reason by us or our Vendors, its employees or agents, or the shipping or delivery company used by us, you, or Vendor or that shipping or delivery company’s employees or agents. If your order is undeliverable as a result of your absence, incorrect or false information, you may be charged a non-refundable restocking fee of twenty dollars ($20.00) ("Restocking Fee").
1.3 Local Delivery and Pick Up. Contact us to coordinate local, in-person pick up. If you are within the designated local delivery area, local delivery may be selected at checkout.
1.4 Shipment and Delivery. All Product is sold on an “as-is where-is” basis in Bellingham, Washington and title to the Product transfers to you at the time and point of sale. All shipping costs, including insurance, and applicable excise, use and sales taxes related to the purchase are to be determined by and paid for by you. By placing an Order, you authorize and direct us to act on your behalf to engage a common carrier to collect and deliver your order to you. In doing so, Company may rely upon, but is not limited to, using its employees, Vendors, or third parties (“Shippers”) to deliver Products to you. The individual picking-up the order or accepting the order shipment or delivery must be at least 21 years of age, provide a valid form of photo identification proving that he or she is at least 21 years old, be legally capable and willing to sign for the order at pick up time, and must not be visibly intoxicated (“Qualified Recipient”). Shippers may catalog the identification card for Company’s or Vendor’s record through scan, photo, or other means. It is solely the responsibility of Shippers, its employees or agents, to verify such proof of identification. Shippers will not deliver Products without age verification and will not leave the Products unattended. If a Qualified Recipient is not available at the time of delivery, or if Shippers or its employees or agent, in its sole discretion, determines that the delivering the Products would be illegal, unsafe, or inappropriate, Shippers will not deliver the Product and you will automatically be charged a Restocking Fee. Any shipments or deliveries of product that are refused or undeliverable by our third-party carriers will be returned to us at your expense.
YOU AGREE THAT YOU MAY NOT PROVIDE COMPANY OR A LICENSED RETAILER ANY INFORMATION OF, OR USE THE SERVICES TO PURCHASE OR PICK-UP FOR OR SEND A DELIVERY OR SHIPMENT TO, ANY INDIVIDUAL UNDER 21 YEARS OF AGE.

In the case of inclement weather or other events beyond our control that interfere with Shippers’ ability to deliver the Products safely or satisfactorily, Shippers will attempt to deliver Products as soon as reasonably possible. In some cases, delivery may occur prior to the scheduled delivery date. In the event that timely delivery of your order is not feasible, we will cancel delivery for the period so affected and issue you a refund of the purchase price for that delivery. Any time you are quoted for delivery, including any estimated delivery date, is an estimate only; provided, however, that we will use commercially reasonable efforts to deliver all products on or before such quoted time, including any such estimated delivery date. No delay in the shipment or delivery of any product relieves you of your obligations under this Agreement, including accepting delivery of any remaining installment or other Orders of products.

Additionally, you are solely responsible for determining the freshness of the Products you receive.

Such written notice will state with specificity all defects and nonconformities and furnish such other written evidence or other documentation as may be reasonably required by us. All defects and nonconformities that are not so specified will be deemed waived by you, such products will be deemed to have been accepted by you, and no attempted revocation of acceptance will be effective. Upon receipt of such written notice, we will determine, in our reasonable discretion, whether the products are nonconforming products. If you provide us with written notice of nonconforming products within three (3) days following the date of delivery of the products to the Delivery Location, and we determine that such products are nonconforming products, we will refund to you such amount paid by you to us for such nonconforming products.
