“Tried to cancel my order within 30 minutes of making it. They just wanted to complete the sale
Two emails and I have been ghosted. Trash customer service, they remind of used car salesman. Stay away. Shop anywhere else.”
“I ordered and paid for 4-bottles of bourbon. I only received two bottles. I have tried tried to contact their customer service line by phone and online. I have not received any response at all. I would avoid buying from this company. There are other reliable online stores for liquor.”
“I wish I had read these reviews before ordering. BUYER beware!!!! I only ordered because site advertises “next day” shipping after purchase. It’s been 2 weeks. Was told a week ago it would be shipped out next day expedited shipping. NOTHING sent. No tracking. No emails. They responded to 1 text and answered 1 phone call. After that GHOST! I filed claim with PayPal to get my money back. Horrible company!!!!!!”
“This is the worst place to order anything from, they’re not professional at all. I place an order and it showed it was it stock, as well as showing that it would be shipped in 2-3 business days. It’s been 3 weeks and I have gotten any update, confirmation codes or tracking number. It’s been in preparing shipment for the past three weeks. Please please do not order anything from them.
I wish I had video or pictures but still don’t have anything to show”
“Today my 84 yo Mother visited the Pacific Paradise QLD Outlet and purchased a Box of Wine the person serving her was just so RUDE, and appeared reluctant and annoyed he needed to help her to the Car which was parked right out the front and almost throwing the Box in the Boot.
Really disgusting to hear of this Elder Disrespect, hope no one treats his mother like that”
“Please note that this review is based on my personal experience. Others may have had different experiences, so take this as just one individual's opinion.
First of all, this site seems not not actually have the items in stock. It seems they try to source the products after an order is placed, and this process appears to be inconsistent. From my experience, shipping takes at least two weeks after purchase—even that is considered fast. For the high-end whiskies I usually purchased (mostly in the $800–900 range, occasionally over $200), it often took more than four weeks to receive the items.
Another major issue is the complete lack of transparency after the purchase. Emails go unanswered, and they never pick up the phone. I was only able to get in touch with someone related to the site via text through the number (619) 757-7571. However, this person never disclosed their name or role, yet occasionally sent me “good offers” for high-end whiskies and negotiated prices—all only via text. Calls were never answered, and texts often went ignored for days, then suddenly I'd receive a response out of the blue. There was no consistency or transparency in the process.
They frequently say things like “it’ll ship tomorrow” or “it’ll go out Friday,” but not once did they meet those timelines. Their messages constantly changed, and the status updates rarely matched reality. In one case, they even generated a tracking number, but the actual shipment didn’t go out until 2–3 weeks later.
Packaging is also highly unprofessional. They use leftover scrap paper or what looks like recycled trash as cushioning material. Thankfully, the whisky arrived intact, but still—it was far from professional.
In some cases, the item delivered wasn't even what I ordered. That led to additional hassle with refunds and back-and-forth disputes.
In conclusion: this is not a scam site in the sense that they never deliver, but it was one of the worst post-purchase experiences I’ve had. The process is unclear, the timeline unpredictable, and the customer service practically nonexistent. No matter how low their prices are, I personally will never order from them again. There are plenty of other sellers that may charge a bit more, but offer far better service and reliability.
If you're someone who cares only about low prices and doesn't mind waiting an uncertain amount of time with minimal communication, then this site might suit you. But if you expect transparency, responsive support, and to receive your item within two weeks, I would not recommend here.”
“I ordered a hard-to-find tequila which they claimed to have 34 bottles of. Fortunately I used PayPal and was able to get my money back since I never received my order, just the run around. Buyer beware!”
“Bought two bottles of Blood Oath back in Mid February. A month later I hadn't seen or heard from them, so I emailed and was told that it was on it's way. A week later, no bottles! Emailed again, and recieved ONE bottle a couple of days later. Well packaged, but still missing a bottle. It is etremely aggravating to go through this experience. Used the "Chat" feature today, and recieved an immediate response. They claim the 2nd bottle is on the way. They appear to be very disorganized. I will update my revieve in a few days to reflect the completion of my order.”
“Run away, terrible company. Order Doc Holliday display set. Case showed up broken, packaging was fine so the case was broken when packed. Missing components of order as well. Value of this bottle is the display, haven't received any responses from multiple attempts to contact.”
“Avoid these guys. Plenty of other distributors to choose from. I ordered 9 days before Christmas, paying extra for expedited shipping and 2 day delivery. I got my order 3 days after Christmas. I requested refund of my expedited fee and never heard from them. Go somewhere else to shop.”
“Ordered on 12/28/24 4 bottles noted on the website as “In Stock”.
Immediate charge to CC via Apple Pay and email confirmation. I didn’t worry about it over New Years, but received an unsolicited text stating order ‘shipping Monday’ 2 wks ago. Asked for tracking # via same text and was told stock was Not in, but back ordered but would ship last Wednesday. Again, asked for tracking # on following Friday and was told delayed but would absolutely ship Thursday ‘today’ and tracking # would be sent via email by 6pm.
There is no email, nor response after almost 4wks from order date, I’m getting nothing more than a run around. This company is not legit and has lied to me several times concerning shipping date. I don’t believe they ever had the stock nor ever planned on shipping. Just scam who they can.
The person who contacted me said his name was John from Liquor Stars. Be aware and don’t order from them. I think they try to string you along until you either forget or cannot reverse charges.”
“This place is horrible to order from. We have been trying to call without any response and also sent emails with no response in reference to our christmas order. We ordered two items and paid additional to have the delivered within four days. It took over four weeks to get one item and we haven't received our second item as of today. My credit card has been billed for the items. Would never use this company again.”
“Ordered Two (2) bottles of Elmer T. Lee Bourbon 18 Sep 2024. Never received an email or any product. Called numerous times and sent 30+ emails (no response). The web tracker shows an empty building for the address. Do not waste your time on this site. It has been a sham for me.”
“Do not do business with this company. I purchased and paid for a bottle of Whistle Pig boss hog back in November. I have yet to get it and they have communicated several times it has shipped. this is January the 18th. I feel bad even giving them 1 star.”
“GREAT vendor. Finally someone who shipped an expensive order in a fast time and the bottom came in a good condition, pappy’s and Blanton straight from barrel came on time and in perfect wax. Will be back soon!”
