Anybody know what was the result of all the mess at winecommune over the ATF letters. Its been awhile since they were sent out, but what was the outcome. Does anyone still buy from there or are "they" still monitoring even small time buyers?

I'm not sure what the outcome was since they shut down the forums over there, but the ATF was targeting sellers weren't they. It's not illegal to buy wine is it?

I'm still interested to see what the outcome was. I had heard that all you had to do was buy a license for $250 and you were good to go. But then I'm sure the state would want to get involved too......etc, etc. What a pain for something that worked just fine without the ATF's involvement.

I haven't tried selling anything there for over a year, mostly I buy. But almost all the regulars (who were not actual retailers) that I dealt with have dropped off. I only buy about 10% of what I used to there.
