Unicorn Delivery and Shipping Policy

Effective Date: October 21st, 2026

Title to and ownership of all purchased spirits and wine ("Product(s)") passes from consignor ("consignor" or "seller") to you ("Buyer") in Illinois. Products are delivered to Buyer in Illinois, and Buyer takes all responsibility for the Products being transported from Illinois to Buyer's selected destination. UA does not itself ship alcoholic beverages nor does it assume any responsibility for shipment by the Buyer. Buyer is reminded that all sales are final, "as is," and cannot be canceled or refunded for any reason, including shipping restrictions.

At the direction of the Buyer, UA shall store the Product(s) at UA's storage facility for a fee of $0.50 per bottle, per month; or may arrange for and pick up the Product at UA's location or make independent delivery arrangements through UA's designated shipper or any other third-party shipper designated by Buyer. Buyer is solely responsible for collecting and arranging for shipment of the Products from UA following the close of the auction and must notify UA of Buyer's collection arrangements. If Buyer elects to ship Products through a common carrier, UA will make a reasonable attempt to assist Buyer in arranging and coordinating with Buyer's preferred common carrier for collection of the Products to be shipped. Buyer will be solely responsible for all shipping and payment for all shipping/delivery charges. All products automatically move into storage for 30 days of complimentary storage immediately following an auction or Exchange transaction.

All transport for Buyer's bottles will be insured by Vertical Insure on an opt-in basis. Unicorn will collect funds on behalf of a Buyer choosing to purchase insurance, but Vertical is responsible for paying out claims and communicating with the customer regarding any potential claims.

Buyer is cautioned that many states impose restrictions on an individual's right to self-import alcoholic beverages into their jurisdictions from other states. UA makes no representation as to the legal rights of any individual to deliver or import any alcoholic beverages or other goods into any state. UA urges all Buyers to investigate the laws in Buyer's state regarding this subject before placing any bids on the UA Platform and further urges Buyers to be in Compliance with any and all applicable laws.

Sales tax will be applied based on the UA's location. As such, Illinois sales tax will be applied to these transactions. In some instances, Buyer or shipper may be responsible for paying additional taxes or fees in connection with the delivery to Buyer's location. UA does not assume any obligation or responsibility for paying any taxes or fees. Buyer warrants that they are solely responsible for the transport of the Products and for determining the legality and tax/duty consequences of bringing the product to its final destination, including the payment of any taxes which may be due at Buyer's location.

Successful international Bidders shall provide written shipping instructions, including specified customs declarations, to Auctioneer for any lots to be delivered outside of the United States. NOTE: Declaration value shall be the item'(s) hammer price together with its buyer's premium and Auctioneer shall use the correct World Customs Organization harmonized code for the lot. Any international taxes are the responsibility of the Buyer.

In all instances where Buyer is not personally collecting purchased products from UA, Buyer warrants that: (i) any and all agents authorized to collect and receive purchases on its behalf are at least twenty-one years of age and in appropriate condition to lawfully receive alcohol; (ii) if shipping or delivering alcohol, Buyer will provide a lawful and valid delivery address; and (iii) any and all individuals receiving the alcohol at the designated delivery address are at least twenty-one years of age and willing to present a valid form of identification and signature upon receipt. Buyer will be assessed a return fee should any Products be returned to UA due Buyer's failure to abide by all of the above and/or if the purchased product is refused at the point of delivery.
