Terms of Service Vintage Trade holds a Licence to Represent Manufacturer issued by the Alcohol and Gaming Commission of Ontario (the "AGCO") for its representation of each of the vintners depicted on the Website. We offer for sale, and deliver wine to you purchased through the Consignment Program operated by the Private Ordering provisions of the Liquor Control Board of Ontario "LCBO"), and we or our affiliates are authorized by the LCBO as a consignment agent.
LCBO Guidelines define our role and the LCBO´s expectations. As a Manufacturer´s Representative or agent, we do not "sell" wine. Rather, the LCBO regards you to be its customer. We are the intermediary which processes the sale of wine from the LCBO to you. "Processes" means that we represent our manufacturers and assist in the transaction of your purchase from the LCBO.
The wine prices shown on the Website are inclusive of the LCBO sale price, licensee discounts and markups and fees charged by Vintage Trade. A paid invoice will be mailed to you upon completion of the order. According to LCBO rules, the ‘LCBO cost’ must be disclosed to the customer. The ‘LCBO cost’ represents the taxes and mark-ups by the LCBO based on the price from the winery. The Vintage Trade mark-up will vary depending upon the price negotiated with the winery. The markup must pay for the operation of the company and all services that Vintage Trade provides, as there is no additional compensation from the winery for Consignment wines. All wine is held by the LCBO in its consignment warehouse until your order is placed. Wine is not available directly from Vintage Trade nor does Vintage Trade have any alcohol on its premises.
The Sale of Alcoholic Beverages The sale of beverage alcohol is heavily regulated. You agree not to intentionally or unintentionally violate any applicable law or regulation including making an offer to purchase or make a delivery arrangement for wine by or on behalf of a person not of legal drinking age. Upon delivery, proof of age may be required in the discretion of the delivery agent. The delivery agent will not complete the delivery of liquor to any person who appears intoxicated.
Vintage Trade cannot process the sale of liquor to persons under the age of 19. By using this site you affirm that you are 19 years of age or over. Vintage Trade makes every effort to ensure that alcoholic beverages are not delivered to anyone who is under the age of 19. By using the Website you are acknowledging that the person receiving a shipment of alcoholic beverages from Vintage Trade is 19 years in age or more. If you intentionally or unintentionally misrepresent your age in order to provide alcohol to a person under the age of 19, Vintage Trade will report the infraction to the AGCO which may prosecute you fully to the extent allowable by law.
