General Policy
Rare Collects, LLC (“Rare Collects”) is a Florida-based retailer specializing in the sale of premium and rare wines, spirits, and champagnes. Due to the highly regulated nature of alcoholic beverage sales and the unique character of many of our products, all sales are final. As a general policy, we do not accept returns or exchanges once an order has shipped.
Notwithstanding the foregoing, customer satisfaction remains a priority for Rare Collects, and we may, in our sole discretion, evaluate requests for refunds or exchanges in limited circumstances, as detailed below.
Order Cancellation Policy
- 24 hours of placement, provided that the order has not yet been packaged or shipped.
- restocking fee of ten percent (10%) of the order total to cover administrative and transactional expenses.
Damaged or Incorrect Merchandise
Rare Collects takes significant care in the packaging and fulfillment of orders to mitigate the risk of damage or error. In the rare event of a problem:
- Customers must notify Rare Collects of any material damage to goods within forty-eight (48) hours of delivery. Notification should include photographic evidence of the damage to the product and packaging.
- Customers who receive merchandise inconsistent with their order confirmation should contact Rare Collects immediately. Where feasible, we will facilitate the shipment of the correct item upon return of the incorrect item, using a pre-paid return label provided by Rare Collects. If the originally ordered item is no longer available, store credit equal to the purchase price of the incorrect item will be issued.

- unsuccessful delivery attempts,
