Adding wines to the BBX sale list Once you are registered as a BBX seller you shall be entitled to add any of your eligible wines from your CPR account onto the BBX sale list through your online account. To list the wines follow the instructions on the relevant web page. You shall be entitled to withdraw any wines you have listed on the BBX sale list through your online account at any time prior to a purchaser confirming their order to purchase your wine. Once a purchaser has confirmed their order within the purchase process or you as a seller has accepted a BBX bid on your cellared wine, you cannot withdraw the wine unless the purchase does not complete for whatever reason. Wines listed must be in unsplit cases and must not be a mixed case. BBX sale price When listing any of your cases of wine on the BBX list, you must also state the case selling price (price in bond, exclusive of duty and VAT). You are free to set whatever price you wish for the case, save that where you set a case price less than your purchase price at which point you will receive a warning and you will have the opportunity to change the price. Berry Bros. & Rudd reserves the right in its absolute discretion to withdraw your wine from the BBX list if it believes pricing will affect the commercial integrity of the BBX platform and/or in Berry Bros. & Rudd’s reasonable opinion, the price set is far below or far in excess of the market value of the wine. You may vary the price of any case at any time through your online account, provided it is prior to a purchaser confirming their order to purchase your wine. Once a purchaser has confirmed their order you cannot change the price unless the purchase does not complete for whatever reason, e.g. the purchaser’s payment is not authorised or the purchaser exercises their right to cancel within 14 days – see Return of Goods / Cancellation in standard terms. There is a 60-day time limit on BBX listings at the same selling price. Wine that has been listed for 60 days at the same selling price will be removed from the BBX list and the seller will receive an email notification. The seller then has the option of re-listing the wine for a further 60 days at a selling price of their choice. Valuation guide Berry Bros. & Rudd shall give you access to an online valuation guide to help you set the price for your wine. The valuation guide shall comprise a combination of Berry Bros. & Rudd own valuations (based on current and recent lists and transaction data), as well as externally sourced guide valuations. Please note that valuation information will only be available on wines where recent data exists. Berry Bros. & Rudd shall use its reasonable endeavours in the collation of these valuations however the valuation guide is illustrative only and Berry Bros. & Rudd does not guarantee or warrant the contents of the guide nor shall Berry Bros. & Rudd be responsible for your reliance upon it. BBX sale list Berry Bros. & Rudd shall make the sale list available online for all its customers through Berry Bros. & Rudd’s online search engine. Customers looking for wines can search the BBX list and Berry Bros. & Rudd’s own wines. The BBX list will show all the wines you have listed for sale together with all other BBX sellers’ wines. It may be that other BBX sellers and or Berry Bros. & Rudd will be selling the same vintage wine at the same time as you, therefore all BBX wines will appear in any search results in the same way as a Berry Bros. & Rudd wine. As each BBX seller sets their own price for their wine independently of Berry Bros. & Rudd and a search for a specific wine may show that wine being sold at different prices, Berry Bros. & Rudd shall be under no obligation to vary its current wine price list or the manner in which Berry Bros. & Rudd determines the price for its wines as a result of the prices set by BBX sellers. If the same wine is listed at an identical price by two or more BBX sellers then the wine that was listed for sale first will be sold first. Sale and purchase of wine on BBX If a purchaser wishes to purchase your BBX wine or you as seller accepts a BBX bid, an order will be placed through us. We will email you to advise you of a pending order for your wine. We will act as agent to arrange the transaction between the seller and the buyer. We will at no time take title to or ownership of the wine. Title will pass to the buyer from the seller on completion of the transaction. A commission of 10 percent of the sale price allocated by the seller will be paid to BBX. The sum agreed payable to you will, subject to being paid in full by the purchaser, be paid to you 10 working days of the completion of the order. You authorise us, as your agent, to agree a lower selling price on your behalf with the buyer, provided that the reduction in the sale price is matched by an equal reduction in the amount of our commission, so that the sale price net of commission remains the same. If the purchaser defaults on payment or cancels the purchase, then our purchase from you will not be completed and your BBX wines will remain in your ownership. We will advise you by email of a completed purchase or a cancelled purchase. Payment of the purchase price to you shall be by either crediting your Berry Bros. & Rudd account or by BACS payment to your bank account the details of which appear in your BBX seller registration. Any overdue debt on your Berry Bros. & Rudd account will be deducted from the sale price net of commission if a BACS payment is made. You may change those details online by logging into your BBX account. Cancellation of BBX orders After an order is placed for your listed wine or after you have accepted a bid for your cellared wines, you are unable to cancel the order or withdraw the wine.
