Placing Orders
Posted by rraitz, Dec 1, 2007.

It appeared to me that it was possible to get info on, search for and order wines on this site. But having no luck finding the site location. Help! :(

By "this site", do you mean http://www.snooth.com/ ?

It is not strictly possible to order wines from Snooth (they are not licensed as a wine retailer), but you can purchase wines from associated online vendors and have them shipped to your door (provided your state permits that--for instance, in Pennsylvania the State Liquor Board requires that out-of-state sales be shipped to the nearest state store, where you pick it up and pay the appropriate state sales tax).

For instance, if I wanted to buy the 2000 vintage of Carpineto Chianti Classico Riserva, I could use http://www.snooth.com/search#carpineto+chianti , click the "buy it now" link next to the top result, taking me http://www.snooth.com/buy/carpineto-chianti-classico-riserva-2000/search , where I find a http://www.snooth.com/merchant-redirect/73139/search to buy the wine at Raeders Wine, landing me on http://www.raederswine.com/sku060615.html , from which I can order the wine.

(Unfortunately, there are some vendor sites to which it is not possible for Snooth to pass us through directly to the wine we'd requested: that's dependent on the vendor's web site working that way. Many, as with Raeders, do work, though.)

Snooth has a new feature called Merchant Select that lets you pick a merchant close to you, so that the search results will only come from that store. It's been pretty useful for me! Click "Add a Merchant" at the very top to use this feature!

We're on it! Still looking for people to introduce us to their local stores so we can go sign them up - these things go faster with an intro
