Wendouree allocations and general discussion

[AnzacPaul]

Finally got a reply

As per others, no allocation for this year but fingers crossed for next year as apparently a better quantity.

I applied in early '21 and after understandably missing out in '21 & '22, letter received in regional Vic today with price list and "limit of six bottles applies on each of the wines on offer" and a blank order form on the back - no markings or crayon.

Thank you!

I posted a letter last night to remind them I’m still interested and got my first letter today! Limit of 6 bottles, choice of 6 so I guess I’ll take one of each ;-)

limit of 6 bottles in total, or 6 bottles on each of the wines?

I misread. It was 6 bottle of each. But I ordered one of each anyway.

I'll be doing similar

Order form received today in metro Melbourne. No markings. Nice to get over the first hurdle this year!

I've already completed it and dropped it off at AusPost

Form received: this is 5th year, missed out on last 2 years, but got a 4 & 6 case in first two years.
No visible crayon

Received a form. Sydney Metro. I applied in March 2021 and missed out in 2021 & 2022. Price list attached and "limit of six bottles applies on each of the wines on offer" and a blank order form on the back - no markings or crayon. I might be wrong but it seems that the prices have gone down from last year. Shipping $19 per a sixer with a $3 insurance included.
Edit - misread - $3 per cartoon is an extra for insurance on top of $19.

Seems random to a certain degree what marking you get. Wendouree lottery system, but hey- it's a fun lottery to enter

yes down $5 per bottle, after increases over the last 2 years I believe

What $3 extra on the form?

 

[afro]

$3 insurance for each carton

 

[billbro]

$3 insurance for each carton

Doesn't the form explicitly ask you to include full cover for each carton?

 

[olympicwiz]

Doesn't the form explicitly ask you to include full cover for each carton?

It says "Please include FULL COVER at $3.00 for each carton". But how do you calculate the cost if the allocation can be scaled down?
When filling the form out - do you just put the number of bottles requested or calculate totals and freight/insurance costs too?

I too have just received my first order form after writing to them in 2020 (or was it 2021?). No crayon mark at all on my form.
