Good experience, but way higher then FMV I've always had good experiences with Winebid with bidding and shipping. For lower priced wines under $300, you will still pay a premium through Winebid. But for higher priced collector wines, sellers set their minimum bid at current fair market value or slightly higher. In other words, sellers are really listing their wine for sale at current (or even higher) fair market value (which already considers the cost of auction fees). Tack on the Winebid 17% buyer fee and you're paying way more than professional auction houses who appropriately set starting bids lower....i.e., so it's an auction, not a sale plus 17%. Anyone who buys at Winebid for investment should seriously reconsider their thought process.

Operated by morons Winebid suspended my account when I placed over $1k worth of bids. Authorized my card for every single bid... no hello, no any kind of warning... stupid moron operating this dumb site...

Bid and bought a Justin Isosceles… Bid and bought a Justin Isosceles Reserve from them. They charged me for it but never sent the wine. When asked no response was given. I paid for the wine but never received it. I would never buy wine from this site. Besides you are actually getting gouged. There are much better sites to buy wine from, including older wines.

Fun way to buy older wine! So far I’ve bought over 50 bottles in varying ages and prices and I could Not be happier. The shipping takes a bit of time but the bottles show up still cold and well packed. The only complaint I have Is that I have A hobby that is now way too expensive and my wine storage capacity had to be upgraded to accommodate. If you like trying older vintages and bottles you will never see in a wine shop this is a heck of a lot of fun. A lot of what I’ve bought is under $50 a bottle and I’ve found some amazing gems.

Wine that I bidded $32 on cost me $42… Wine that I bidded $32 on cost me $42 with handling charge California tax and shipping charges of $46.estimate for shipping was $34. They ship once per week and I bought my wine 10 days ago and they say it is about to leave California now and will be in Florida either Wednesday before thanksgiving or Monday after thanksgiving.maybe 21 days. do not use this company dreadful.
