We have some of the worst laws on shipping wine so none of the online dealers want to ship here. :facepalm:

That whole thing with the liquor stores closing at 9 PM sucks, too.

No that is fine.
Doing more reading but here is what it looks like:
-2009 they opened up shipment to consumers directly (This is good)
-2010/1 they require shippers to have a permit to ship into Texas (Texas would not issue any permit...:wtf:)
-2012 Some permits are getting through but they are limiting/controlling who can get one

Basically people are restricted to buying locally now and only what grocery, liquor, etc. stores decide to buy.

No, it's Texas, not WWII-era Germany. :ugh2:

They will shoot you if they catch you with it, though.

Damn. :(

So this is a State run policy, or a federal policy being enforced on Texas?

It can but honestly it has rarely ever bothered me.
Usually if I am drinking at 9PM I am home with a glass of wine or out somewhere.

I guess you can plan around it if you're used to it but I was caught off-guard and thought it was kind of weird.

Though I guess, I can only think of a few occasions where I bought booze late at night... And I was always up to no good. ;)

So many places to order online but none want to ship to Texas, FU state legislation for screwing over wine drinkers.

I am not sure, you probably can but I would bet it is illegal to do so.

Is it you just can't ship to a residential address, or could you ship to a business? or a PO Box?

Could you ship to a particular liquor store like you can ship firearms to gun stores?

I think it pertains to consumer addresses (which would include a business).
You probably need to have a liquor license to get around the law and order whatever you want. There are a couple places here that might be able to source it for us, but they will jack the price up a bit for doing the finding and special ordering. Which in the end, if it comes to that, I will be doing that. Just sucks knowing I can find it online from plenty of vendors I just cannot have it.

Here in Ontario too, no alcohol served after 1am, liquor store(only place that can sell alcohol) close at 9pm or 10pm.

But other province such as Quebec, even convenience store can sell alcohol..... man... that's really convenient...

Well we win on one part, we can serve until 2AM. :tup:
Though on Sundays you are not allowed to buy anything (including beer) until noon. I go to a grocery store here (HEB) and the wine section is blocked off, it is funny how many people try to get in not knowing the law.

Have to love facebook.
Just browsing around and ended up on a picture of a 350z Nismo with some wheels and a drop. Looked clean, but there was a GTO in the background and the post turned into a ricer v domestic BS argument. Funny read, but just so sad people cannot respect another persons car.

I think a grey 370z with blacked out headlights is ricer.
