The worst possible.
The worst possible.
Payment was done, but the seller refused to ship because the billing address was my hotel.
I was unfairly accused of fraud.
The seller tells I need to contact the credit card to get the payment cancelled and my credit card tells the store needs to cancel and refund.
Still trying to get refund.

FineWineCollector and Jim Shaw did a great job
FineWineCollector found the vintage of champagne I was looking for and Jim Shaw saw to it that I received my selection in no time. This was a very important deal for me because my wife just finished a long fight with cancer and I wanted to celebrate our 25th wedding anniversary with the vintage champagne we had when we were engaged. I am really thankful for FineWineCollector...

Excellent service - First Purchase
Excellent service. Prompt and personal response from Jim. Highly recommend and I will order again. Everything in my first order went well except I would recommend not to use UPS shipping. UPS left the fine wines at front door without asking signature.
