Just got a mailing from Audelssa (remember them?). Anyway, the four page missive goes on about how well things are going, and they've opened a new tasting room, etc., etc. Next it talks about the three wines they have to offer, how great they are and how they've unforunately had to start allocating because of all the interest, etc., etc. Then on the third sheet they talk about how they can ship to just about anybody, and here's their shipping rates - looked more expensive than most. On the last page - finally - are the wines offered and the allocations. Well, their lowest price wine is SOLD OUT, so is unavailable. The next wine up I'm allocated ZERO bottles - hmmm. For their most expensive (I believe it was $45, but I threw out the mailer so I'm not sure now), I'm allocated ONE bottle. Flip back to the shipping chart, and in order to ship to me the charge is $26 for that one bottle!!! PASS!!!

Good grief! They've got to be kidding.

That sounds SO WRONG. I can't but believe that they will loose a few if not a lot of people from their mailing list.

Well, they sure lost this one.

WW, those would be the folks you said you were going to get a case each of their wines. Here's the thread - www.wines.com/ubb2/Forum9/HTML/000930.html. Problem is, you have to cut and paste.

KC, that URL gets you nowhere!

Tried it a couple of times, and it works for me. Remember - cut and paste.
