Cobuyr
We are always looking for ways to make wine buying easier so were very excited when we heard about Cobuyr. Created by a local technology company, makes it possible for customers to group directly through our online store.
Whether you are looking to share the cost of a Grand Cru Burgundy, split the bill for a party, or go halves on a gift, we think Cobuyr is a fantastic idea and it is now live on our website. Please read below to find out how it can work for you.
What is Group Buying?
Group Buying is the ability to divide the cost of single purchase on thesalusburywinestore.com between multiple customers.
Split the cost of orders by inviting family, friends, colleagues - and those you may not know very well (yet) - to pay together at checkout on our website.
How does Group Buying work?
To start a Group Buy you can either choose the ‘Group Buy’ option at checkout, or click on ‘Group Buy’ on a specific product page.
Every Group Buy has a Primary Buyer, who initiates the purchase. As the Primary Buyer, you add your cobuyers - people who buy together – at the checkout. You will need their emails and mobile numbers to add them. Then you split the transaction between the cobuyers either financially or, under certain conditions by the bottle.
For case purchases you can allocate bottles or split by cost. This can also be done for multiple orders of single bottles of the same wine. For mixed cases you can only split by cost.
After the Primary Buyer has allocated amounts and paid their end this sends a secure message (via email or social media) asking everyone in the group to pay. Each cobuyer will choose if they want the products to be delivered or to be picked up in our store. Be aware you have a set amount of time for all cobuyers to complete the purchase.
What else do you want to know?
There is no limit to the number of people who can buy together in a group.
There is no extra charge to buy together in a group.
If you order wine in bond, we will contact you after payment to schedule delivery and organise payment of relevant taxes and duty, depending on the final destination of the wine.
We hope you enjoy this new and exciting group buying checkout experience that makes buying wine together a fun and memorable experience.
