No complaints so far after 3 big orders
I've placed three big orders recently, two for myself including one very expensive bottle, and one sent as a gift to a friend. All deliveries have been perfect, on time and with good communication/tracking. The selection and prices are better than high street shops. Packaging is good and secure, and deliver charges are reasonable. Very much happy with my recent orders.

Online ordering
The online ordering from an email link was easy having looked once on a separate occasion before the order was placed. It was delivered to the chosen store at the time they said it would be so all was good and smooth.
