Running a premium cellar shouldn't just cost. The Exchange is our managed, members-only resale marketplace — a white-glove way for members to sell from their own collection, and a $4.95 per-bottle service fee for your cellar on every listing. We run the whole marketplace; you just approve.
Georgia · pilotCurrently live at storage centers in Georgia. Expanding — we'll work with cellars outside Georgia to enable it next.
For the member
$4.95 to list
A flat, per-bottle fee — and we do everything. When it sells, their proceeds arrive in their payout method, minus standard processing & handling.
For your cellar
$4.95 / bottle
Your service fee on every bottle listed — for pulling, inspecting, photographing, and posting. A premium member service that brings in revenue, fully managed for you.
When a bottle sells, Best Cellar Club retains a platform commission plus payment-processing fees, and the member receives the rest — disclosed at sale time. Members simply see “your proceeds, minus processing & handling.”
The math, on your numbers
Adjust the sliders to your reality. The calculator is plan-aware — it caps to each tier's member limit so the numbers stay honest.
Estimate what The Exchange could mean for your cellar.
Members likely to list at least occasionally. Capped at the plan's 10-member limit.
A casual collector might list ~0.2; an active one ~1+.

How it works
A choreography designed to feel quiet and premium for every participant.
Member taps “Put on Exchange”
From any bottle in their collection. They confirm the $4.95 storage-center service fee (non-refundable) and read exactly what happens next.
Your team pulls, inspects, and photographs
Within 24 hours: at least four photos (front, back, capsule, overall), a written condition report, and a sommelier-grade price recommendation.
Member has final review
They see everything before it goes live. Approve, edit the price, request changes, or cancel — they have full control.
Live to all Best Cellar Club members
Cross-club marketplace. Only verified Association members can buy. We handle the payment capture and the payout.
Sold — paid out automatically
The member's proceeds land in their registered payout method, minus standard processing & handling. Your cellar keeps the $4.95 listing fee for the service.
What your team sees
One screen for every active listing, every task waiting on inspection, every sale on its way. Clear, calm, and on-brand.

We're running The Exchange first at storage centers in Georgia so we can prove the choreography end-to-end before opening more states. If your cellar is outside Georgia and you'd like to be among the first to bring The Exchange to your members, let's talk— we'll work with you to enable it as we open your region.
The Exchange is included with every Best Cellar Club plan at participating cellars. Built quietly into the same premium experience your members already love.
Choose your plan and you can be mapped and live in a single afternoon.
