Other than berating you over the contents of your celler
there are two primary user on-line wine auctions. Wine
Commune and WineBid.com. The major problem is that
these sites are almost entirely populated by people in
Cali which makes shipping almost prohibitive for single
bottles (and even cases) to me on the East Coast. The
other problem is unlike ebay, which despite rampant
fraud due to it's size, these sites aren't policed at
all. As a result, you're really taking a big risk
buying things. Paypal will disavow all knowledge of
the transaction and many of the sellers are doing
things PayPal considers illegal.
