Shipping and delivery done at your Request
Title to and ownership of wines purchased from the Sparkle-ist website pass from R&L Bubbles LLC (DBA Sparkle-ist) to the buyer in the District of Columbia (Washington DC). R&L Bubbles LLC does not convey or intimate the right of any person to transport beverage alcohol across any state border. The buyer takes all responsibility for the shipping of his or her wine from Washington DC to his or her home state. Sales tax will be applied based on the seller’s location.
By placing an order, the buyer authorizes R&L Bubbles LLC to act on buyer’s behalf in arranging for transportation of wine at the buyer’s direction. R&L Bubbles LLC will arrange for shipment on behalf of the buyer, to an address specified by the buyer. The buyer represents that they are acting in a manner compliant with their state and local laws regarding the purchase, transport and delivery of wine. The buyer represents that they obtained any required permission, paid any required fees, is legally entitled to take possession of wine, is legally entitled to take quantities ordered, and certifies that he or she is at least 21 years of age. R&L Bubbles LLC assumes no liability for breach of any regulation by the purchaser. R&L Bubbles LLC assumes no liability for any misinterpretation of the above provisions.
R&L Bubbles LLC requires customers to have their purchases delivered to themselves under such legal rights as may exist (and such rights change regularly – consumers are advised to know the requirements that apply to them) for them to take delivery of wine in the state or area in which they live. This legally permitted method of doing business involves the following steps (1) title legally transfers in the state of sale, where the goods are sold, (2) R&L Bubbles LLC files tax reports in accordance with District of Columbia law, and (3) the bill of lading shows the customer (who directs the process of having his or her wine or goods delivered in accordance with the customer’s legal rights) as the party directing the delivery.
