Dan Murphy's and Other Wine Deals

It's not a question of rectification. As I understand the background, you accepted their offer to purchase 4 bottles for a certain price. They delivered only 2. It is a question of performance of their obligations under that contract; viz delivering 4 bottles.

There's a dispute as to how many bottles were being offered. CM was offering two - Dr Ralph intepreted the offer as four. This has already been discussed - when CM put an "x12" symbol on their wine, they mean 12 bottles. When they put "x2" it means two bottles. Not two packs, two cases or two pallets. Obviously that might be interpreted otherwise by the reader.

I haven't seen the terms of the offer, but what CM intended to offer is strictly irrelevant. If the objective interpretation of the offer is that 4 bottles were offered and Dr Ralph accepted that then there is a contract. But the converse is true too.

Some of this is just getting silly. Having purchased from CM before and being familiar with their ads, I read the ad in question as CM intended (2 bottles all up). I hardly think it was intentional deception that someone interpreted it differently. I think the return/refund is perfectly acceptable...move on.
 
I'm halfway through a case of the hay shed and its been decent without being spectacular. Probably a decent price on that.

The oakridge is pretty tempting although with wm I'm always waiting for the next 20% off sale...

The Oakridge dropped to $18 then of course sold out :)


You could try calling Langton's about the pinot mix. They offered it to me despite being out of stock on their site. :|

Thanks :)


Hardly available anywhere else on the market, the cheapest I can see it anywhere online is [/FONT][/COLOR]$68. To snap up this sensational wine for over half price at just $36.99/bottle . I only have 40 six packs so it won’t last long!

Edit:
Cracka called me - Brookland Valley Reserve Cab Sav

Nice deal - was there a link for it? Surprised it didn't appear on My Wine Guy first - maybe later...


Hot off the presses - and I know youse have all been waiting for this to surface - get your yellow tail here.

COTD also had Tapanappa Foggy Hill Pinot Noir 2013 for ~$33 from WineMarket


URL definitely not working for me.

Would appreciate a screen shot if you have it.

Looking at every other gift pack available here:

https://www.cellarmasters.com.au/gifts

The say 'twin pack' and then they write x 2 in a grey circle. To me this indicates that there are 2 x twin packs which happen to have 2 bottles in them.

They do however list 'From 14.99 a bottle' for a total price of 29.98 (using the Dorrien Estate Twin Pack as an example).

But that logic doesn't work.

Look at this item:

https://www.cellarmasters.com.au/gi...l-ouverture-magnum-glasses-twin-pack-GROTMAG2

It clearly says 'twin pack' x 1. Therefore there is 1 x 2 items for a total of 2 items.

If you write 'twin pack' x 2 then there must be 2 x 2 items for a total of 4 items.

Remedies for a breach of section 18 of the ACL are outlined here:

COMPETITION AND CONSUMER ACT 2010 - SCHEDULE 2 The Australian Consumer Law

They include rectification.

Sorry Dr Ralph that you seem to have misinterpreted Cellarmasters :(

With beer/wine/spirits/water, x2 means the deal is for 2 bottles, and a per bottle price is given

With glassware/accessories, x1 means the deal is for 1 pack, which might include 2 items, and a per pack price is given - unfortunately, in these cases, a pack is listed as equivalent to a bottle - don't know why they can't replace the word bottle with pack?

What remedy do you want and expect given that they might be genuine errors, reasonable mistakes of fact, with no intent to mislead or deceive?

Got this email from PricePal.

The problem is that I didn't buy anything from Dan's yesterday, online or otherwise, and certainly not for that amount. I don't see any charges when I look at my accounts. Should I be concerned?

Sounds dodgy. Contact dans and see if they can tell you which credit card was used.
 
These days I prefer ordering with First Choice Liquor (Coles) on line. Free delivery for orders over $150, even to NSW Far South Coast. The more you drink the more you save!!
 
I was about to bite, but checked wine companion and Halliday rated this a 86! Might explain the steep discount.
