So I finally got a notification that my LTM order shipped, 6 days after the order. Anyone had better results?

That's much better than the old system of ordering from agents. Which could take 6 weeks.

Ya that seems quite good actually, we know they didn't set out to provide "competitively fast" shipping ;)

Good to hear that there are new additions - hopefully this trend continues! If it does, it would be good to get a thread going to announce new online arrivals (or use this thread for that purpose).

Got my LTM Porter delivered to the store. Took exactly one week. Not bad after all. If anyone is serious about splitting orders with me, please PM me.

Yeah, for now this thread is good because there's still very few online exclusives. Would also be nice to use this thread to arrange for shared orders. It's nice that they are adding things, but I hope that offshore craft will not one day be diverted from the shelves to the online exclusive section altogether. Macros would love nothing more than put extra barriers between you and your craft beer.

Looks like someone ordered a case of the Porter Baltique 2013 and returned all but one bottle?


Also my order took exactly one week as well. No LTM beers, just regular LCBO stock though.

Nice. I may pick up a bottle or 2 if there's anything else decent at that store. Used to live down the road from that one, not so great for beer.

Woohoo - Del Ducato Beersel Morning back in stock! I may grow to like this system yet!

Would case shares from the LCBO/com be appropriate for the Private Ordering forum?

Picking it tomorrow. Any reason how they would refuse a return given their return policy?

IIRC, those 11 bottles have been sitting "in stock" in Kitchener for months.

I can report returning some bottles is no issue. Don't feel like retyping, so, if you're interested check out my twtiter feed

Yeah, that's a good spot for it.
