Good evening all,
Has anyone purchased anything from these guys?
www.buydrinkonline.co.uk
I'm usually use my local whisky shop (Gordon MacPhail), Master of malt or Whisky exchange, but this site popped up on an internet search a few pounds cheaper than anywhere else on a few products I was looking for. Just checking they are legitimate!!
Regards,
Rob |

I have never heard of this site and i would say beware. The contact us page shows no more than an email address and i believe online traders should show their full contact details by law, usually postal address and a genuine business would have a phone number. The terms and conditions page is blank

Even if it is genuine you will have nothing but a email address if you have a problem, i personally wouldnt go near this shop. |

They mention their customer support team but have no business address but they do say "We have various addresses for returns." which is odd but they dont say what these addresses are.
It does say that buydrinkonline.co.uk is a trading name of Landmark Retail Limited whoever they are. |

They do seem to have a few bargins, but are they too good to be true. I dont like the fact that there are no proper contact details, i dont fancy supplying them with my bank card details.
The site says "buydrinkonline.co.uk is a trading name of Landmark Retail Limited." This is what google led me to:
