Wine Racks for Sale with Free Shipping
Finding the perfect wine rack is a job in itself. It may cost you anywhere from $20 to $400, but you may be in for a second surprise: the shipping is nearly as expensive as the wine rack!
This is going to be a problem particularly if you're buying a metal wine rack, much less a wrought iron wine rack, but even an assembled wooden wine rack will be expensive, even if it is not that heavy. Why? Because of the space they take up. Wine racks are, of course, mostly hollow, so you can fit all those bottles in. That works against you in terms of shipping costs, because a package three feet long is expensive to ship -- it will take up an usually large amount of space in the shipper's truck, and may make packing their truck so difficult that they won't have room for a couple of other smaller packages. They'll still ship your package, of course, but you will pay for the priviledge.
Fear not. The vasy majority of wine racks available for sale these days are sold by more than one retailer. And as retail gets more and more competitive, smart retailers have turned to free shipping deals to attract and keep customers. With just a little bit of extra research, you can probably find the wine rack you want from one of these retailers, and save yourself enough to buy at least one extra bottle of your favorite vintage.
So here they are: 5 major retailers who sell wine racks. Be sure to check these sites before you pay a dime for shipping (much less for "handling").
AMAZON.COM Wine Racks
Amazon.com is hands-down, no contest my favorite internet retailer. One of the main reasons for this is their fantastic "Amazon prime" program. You get free 2nd day shipping on any prime-qualified purchase (and 90% of what Amazon offers is prime qualified) for just $80 a year. I realize that the "just" for $80 may make you gulp, but over the course of a year you'll save hundreds of dollars. And if $80 is too steep, split it with a trusted person (spouse, family member, friend) and pay just $40.
WineRacksAmerica.com
If you buy $200 or more of goods from WineRacksAmerica.com you'll get free shipping via UPS, DHL or (if your order is really large) via commercial freight.
WineEnthusiast.com
No minimum pruchase to get your free shipping deal here, but you are a bit limited with the selection of wine racks that ship free. Still, this is a well-respected retailer and they've got 77 different wine racks they're happy to send to you for free. Check out their "designer" line of wine racks. They're not cheap, but anyone who's ever raised a glass will envy your new purchase.
JustWineRacks.com
This retailer does a a blend of the "spend x amount to get free shipping" and offering free shipping on some items. Many of their best-sellers ship via UPS, Fedex or DHL ground for free, but if you spend $69 or more, your order will also ship free. Do be aware of shipping delays with this and other retailers -- though JustWineRacks.com does include information about their inventory count in every product description.
