What have you done to your website?
I've just tried to navigate your new auction website. What have you done? Before, it was so easy to find the whiskies I was interested in. The filters are confusing and what is that floating zero about? What happened to the dashboard? It's a shame that's gone. Now, it's not a pleasurable experience at all.
I don't think I'll be back in a hurry.

Hi Joe, thank you for your feedback.
We’re sorry to hear the updated site hasn’t delivered the experience you were hoping for. We recently introduced a new design and platform for our auctions, and we know changes like this can take some getting used to. That said, customer feedback plays a key role in how we continue to develop and improve the site.
We’re actively working on enhancements based on the areas that matter most to our users, and are rolling out updates regularly to improve performance and usability. We hope you’ll see some positive changes if you choose to return in future.

Outstanding service from Whisky Auctioneer
I recently purchased 3 bottles of Macallan whisky from Whisky Auctioneer.
I live outside of the UK and had never purchased from any Whisky Auction before.
The entire process from start to finish was very profesional and seemless.
After only one phone call to their head office, to ask a question, I was allocated a customer services representative, George, who guided me through the entire process from payment, arrangeding the courier, right down to every last detail.
George was fantastic to work with and I must say the entire process went really well.
Thank you very much Whisky Auctioneer
Give those guys a Bells 😃

Gripes…
I would prefer not to have to pay you for storage after purchase. Given the commission you charge I think delivery in mainland UK should be free.

Thanks, Julian – we appreciate the positive rating and your thoughts on delivery and storage charges. Customer feedback helps us ensure we continue to provide a fair and competitive fee structure.

Poor Customer Service for Faulty Goods
I bought a bottle of single malt Scotch whisky for over £180. When I opened it, the cork disintegrated and the significantly flavour was impaired. It was obvious that the whisky had been stored incorrectly and in very hot conditions. Although the box was normal, the bottle had a sticker on it showing that it had been an export to an Asian country where it had clearly not been looked after. I notified the company, who basically said, 'too bad'. A business that dos not do due diligence on the product it sells, can't be trusted and it's not good enough simply to place all the risk on the purchaser.

Hi William, thank you for taking the time to leave a review and share your experience.
We're sorry to hear that the condition of the bottle you received did not meet expectations. While all bottles listed in our auctions are inspected for visible defects, we are very rarely able to determine their storage history. As an auction site, we do our best to identify and disclose any issues that can be reasonably assessed at the time of listing.
We’re also sorry that the support you received after raising this fell short of the level of service we aim to deliver. We appreciate you bringing the matter to our attention and hope that, despite this experience, you may feel confident to engage with us again in future. If there's anything further we can assist with, please don’t hesitate to get in touch.

The auction journey was as expected- the end disappointing
The auction journey was as expected. We were successful in purchasing a bottle of whisky for a small amount more than what we budgeted for. The big surprise came with the "add-ons" which inflated the buy price by circa 35%. I would have liked to have this presented to me before the buy confirmation but I know why you may not think this is a good idea. If I had had a full perspective on the add-ons I would not have bid past the budget.

Hi George, thank you for taking the time to leave a review.
We're pleased to hear the auction process itself met your expectations. In terms of fees, all bottles are marked with UK or EU icons to help indicate their location, and this can be used alongside the information available on our shipping and fees pages to give a clearer picture of any potential import costs or charges. Commission rates are also outlined up front when registering to use the site.
Clarity and transparency are absolutely central to the experience we aim to offer our clients, and we know how important it is to feel informed and confident when placing a bid. We're always reviewing and refining how we communicate key information, and we truly value feedback like yours in helping us continue to improve. If you’d like to discuss anything further, please don’t hesitate to get in touch.

The fact that you have a European business where we dont have to pay all the taxes is hugely important. Any questions are always dealt with in a quick and professional way, people are friendly when I meet them in the Utrecht office and most importantly you probably have the biggest offer out there for interesting collection-able bottles.

Hi Britton, thank you for your review.
We understand that international fees and shipping costs can add up, and we’re always reviewing how we present this information to ensure clarity and transparency for our clients. All lots are marked with UK or EU icons, and full details around commissions, shipping rates and potential import costs are available on our website.
We’ve established dedicated offices in both the UK and EU to better support our global client base, allowing us to serve our customers more directly and help keep associated costs as low as possible. We really appreciate your feedback and will continue working to deliver the best possible experience.

This is an update to my one star review from five days ago. I have been contacted by whiskey auctioneer and learned the bottles were damaged and not destroyed and are being shipped to me. I was happy to receive a call and get up to date information. Very happy with their customer service and will be bidding again in the near future!
