Mine is coming on Saturday - close enough to bang on 16 weeks. I have a 120 bottle one.
 
Still nothing for me. Havent had a chance to follow up. But its well over 16 weeks.
 
I got a call from the freight Co. today to organise delivery of my 120 bottle cellar - they have it in their yard. I have postponed delivery until next week while I'm home between trips. It is exactly 17 weeks since the claim was validated and they would have delivered it today if I was there.

Sent email regarding non delivery of my big one today. Frustrating.

Seems everyone wants a big one:

"Thank you for contacting the Choose Your Cellar Team. With regard to your Vintec delivery, we have been advised today that due to unforeseen circumstances there has been a delay in delivery on the 120 bottle wine cabinets.

Maybe, maybe not. If they're shipping everything from Denmark on a single container ship, then yours might be on the same ship as everyone else's.
 
Hard to say. Yours might be on the same ship.

Poorly organised compared to last year.
 
Indeed this is very possible to be in the same shipment otherwise I will have to wait until next year to get it delivered!

Big ones are definitely popular.
 
I ordered a big one, thought if I was going to do it, might as well do it properly. It does feel like an eternity though since I handed over the cash.
 
How many bottles did you manage to fit in Steady?

I have only quickly loaded the ones I want to keep a while - there is room for more, so I haven't actually counted yet- the little one is now only half full as well. I am only home for about 5 days in the next month so it will be Christmas before I get time to properly stack it.
