@f00l Most all of those who responded are not from Buffalo! ddeuddeg is my husband, so he’s no big help! There is one who I’ve never heard of before and I just asked where he/she’s located.
I’m surpised at the lack of response to this but I see there are posts for casemates in other areas unanswered also. I do think the ability to send PM’s would help a lot, I was hoping to see some other responses before posting, not everyone wants to disclose their location or personal information in an open forum.
I haven’t ordered yet but I will by the end of the day, probably a set of 4 since I’m seriously over loaded from the final offers on woot which caused me to christen a new storage location in December, so now I have lots of room, funds not so much however! I’d split a case if anyone’s interested, I’m in Cattaraugus County about 45 miles south of Buffalo but ship most of my wine to a Fedex location in Blasdell, seems like I’ve been stopping there weekly for the last few months!
@catcoland The FedEx location isn’t too far away for us. We have ours delivered to the one in West Seneca on Orchard Park Rd. I’m sure we could work something out. I just don’t know if WE have to set up our Casemates or if they are doing it for us??? I’m afraid that I have been super busy at work and also copyediting a book and haven’t had a chance to read through all the posts.
@bahwm Hi bahwm! Here’s the short version: whatever case-sharing Casemates may facilitate, they’re not doing it at the moment. People are posting in the thread for each wine if they’re looking for people to split. If you need to send a PM to exchange info, hopping over to woot works. Eventually they will have some kind of PM system here.
@bahwm For now it’s up to us to make contact and arrange a split from what I’ve read here. There’s no pm function yet but it’s in the works, as is the ability for multiple buyers to pay for their share of a case(s) separately. I’ve been following some of the other areas to see what folks are doing. I was thinking of splitting a case of the first offer but just got 4. I passed on the second one, I really bought way more wine than I ever planned to in November and December with the end of Woot. I did get a case of this offer but figured I’d keep it since I’ve never had a bottle of KR’s wine and have read the comments on the boards for years!
I’ll pm you on Woot with my email, maybe we can try to split some offers in the future, looks like the case price can offer a good discount per bottle.
@catcoland Thanks for the info! You won’t be disappointed with the KR offer. He really knows his stuff and makes some excellent wine! We only bought the 4 pack–we could have split the case with you and gotten 6 bottles each! It’s not like we need more wine!
I’m close enough to buffalo that I could also split offers sometimes. I agree though a pm system would help a lot, because I dont want to share personal info on public forums
I’ll send you a pm with my email and you can send me yours. There hasn’t been much response to this topic yet but perhaps some others will chime in who are closer to you than I am, which is in Cattaraugus County about an hour from the airport.
@bahwm I sent catcoland my email and number to contact me when it’s time to split a case. You can get my info from him and let me know whenever you’re interested. the only wine I have in the house right now is the band blend so I’ll most likely be up for a split
Really, nobody up your way for splits?
Inconceivable.
Look here.

@catcoland Replied to PM.
@bahwm Thanks! That sounds great, I’ll email tomorrow from a keyboard! I will say I’m pleased with the way this site runs on my phone.

catcoland just placed a casemates order for split!
Me!!! It would be so great to have someone or two to split a case with!
@noodles Where are you located, do you have an account on Woot for private messaging? There are a few folks thinking about splitting offers.
@catcoland I’m near the airport! I’ve never used the community function on woot… but I am noodlesinabag over there…
I’ll send you a pm with my email and you can send me yours. There hasn’t been much response to this topic yet but perhaps some others will chime in who are closer to you than I am, which is in Cattaraugus County about an hour from the airport.
I’m excited you guys. So many wines.
@noodles Hey, noodles! Where are you located?
@bahwm near the airport!
@noodles Excellent!

@noodles catcoland shared the info with me. I’ll send you contact info at a more proper hour!
