“Lifesaver”

Oleg T.
3/15/24

This store has been my lifesaver on so many occasions. I am kind of a clumsy guy who always remembers to buy a gift when needed in the last hour 🥴 And just remembered that I have never written a review at least to thank them for their amazing service and show how happy I am that I have discovered them. Now, whenever I have occasion for a gift, I turn to their website and see if I can find something appropriate. And I always do 😀 The gifts come in nice and fancy packages, the prices are affordable and the delivery is fast. Also, they have a remarkable assortment so it is not tricky to find something for whatever occasion it is.

Are there even any words? Gift basket delivery was late, so my mother in laws birthday was over, you can see what they advertise vs what they deliver... and as for the wine? Cheap moscato that even had a "great value" sticker on it...

I ordered a flower arrangement for my boyfriend's mother for Mother's Day- whom I have yet to meet. I live in California and she lives in Mississippi so I decided to try out this site. I was told it would be delivered on Monday (the day after Mother's Day) and although I was nervous about her receiving them a day late, I figured it wasn't the worst thing in the world.
I got a call on Monday saying that they wouldn't be able to deliver but that if it was okay with me, they'd like to deliver it the next day. I was annoyed but if it couldn't be helped, there was nothing I could do about it.
I called them today (Tuesday) to make sure it would be delivered on time. They assured me it would be delivered today and that I was on the priority shipping list. HOWEVER, they called me a couple of hours later to notify me that now it won't be delivered until tomorrow (Wednesday) and that the florist didn't have the flowers for the arrangement that I purchased so they want to go ahead and do a "designer's choice". So now I'm left with flowers that are going to be delivered a lot later than promised AND I have no idea what they're going to look like. I paid $60 for flowers I have no idea what it's going to look like.
It's not even guaranteed it's going to be delivered by tomorrow seeing that Gift Tree keeps postponing the delivery date. And the saga continues...
Would NOT order from them again.

Dear Pearl,

We appreciate you shopping with us, and giving us your business. I see this experience was not at all how we hoped, and I wanted to personally apologize for letting you and your loved one down.

I have reviewed your order and take full responsibility for the issues you have encountered, I do not feel right charging a customer for such a poor experience and have processed a full credit back to your account. You should see this within 3-5 banking days.

I thank you for taking the time to share this feedback and have notated your account regarding our failure to fulfill your delivery on such a special occasion. Please know I do not take this feedback lightly and am addressing this with my team.

We hope you would be willing to give us another chance to show you we are better than this. As a token of our appreciation, I am sending over a $20 gift card for you to use on your next purchase with us. It does not expire, so there is no rush to use it.

Please do not hesitate to reach me at reviews@gifttree.com if there is ever anything I can assist with.

Best Regards,
Sara

I placed an order on the 11th, 6 days later I was advised it was on backorder and I needed to change my order. My original order had a $20cpn and free shipping. I wrote to you asking for another $20cpn, but never heard back. I needed to place the order so it would be delivered before Christmas. Needless to say, I am quite disappointed. I then placed a second order - AGAIN it couldn't be delivered on time SO I CANCELLED. You even responded OK CANCELLED. YET GUESS WHAT... It was delivered and I was billed. I will NEVER ORDER Thru GiftTree again.

I was told my order was cancelled upon my request due to delivery speed, yet I was billed for it and I believe it was delivered - not sure yet. So, the recipients received TWO baskets, one from you and one from another company - I was NOT intending to spend $200 on one person.

Reason I chose this business:

Never will again, after all this.

Reason I chose this product:

I thought they looked nice

I left a respectful review that stated my experience with the product I ordered but it was never published that I can see.
While the website states that the item will be packed to secure the integrity of the items, (I find this reasonable) they do not give a picture of what to expect. I was expecting to see something similar to the lovely picture but received a shipping box with the gift basket inside and the contents shrink wrapped FLAT in the gift basket. Also, it was missing many items that were in the picture (some larger box treats that gave the basket height) and the ribbon tied around the shrink wrapped basket was tied like a child. Again, not even the bow/ribbon was like the picture. I do appreciate that the extra $8 we spent on the ribbon was refunded. I think that you would better serve your clients if you would let them know that they will have to re-assemble the gift basket and that many items may be missing or replaced with others. Then they can make the decision if they want to order from a place that is clearly okay with deceptive pictures and missing items. We ordered from you because we wanted a beautiful presentation (like the picture) not a re-assemble, tie your own bow project. If that is how all your baskets are shipped, I suggest you include instructions and glue dots to show the customer how to re-assemble the gift baskets. It was extremely disappointing. We had plans to make multiple orders until our gift basket arrived in a small brown shipping box. The basket could be shrink wrapped with the items standing up. I know because after I re-assembled ours and took time to tie the ribbon and bow to look professional, I shrink wrapped it. It could have been shipped with a larger box but I'm guessing that the way you do it (flat in a small box) saves you on shipping costs. Just be upfront with a picture of what it looks like when it arrives and that it will need to be re-assembled if they want to recreate the look that is in the picture. Thank you.

Reason I chose this business:

Found it online while looking for Gift Baskets

Reason I chose this product:

The pictures of the baskets looked great. The prices were pretty standard but had some good deals. Too bad the pictures were false advertising. I had to re-assemble the whole thing because of their "safe shipping" that causes the item to arrive looking cheap and lazy.

I forgot to sign the gift card and received an email pointing out that fact.

Hi Christopher,
First, I want to thank you for being a loyal customer over the years. I know that your trust in our brand is something that must be earned and it pains me to know that we let you down. I am truly sorry that this failure led to a replacement having to be sent last minute and I want you to know that we've had several follow up conversations internally with our vendors and partners to ensure a last minute disruption like this is never encountered again. We appreciate you working with our Customer Advocate team and allowing us to upgrade to a gift basket and shipping to overnight Saturday so the replacement could arrive in time to show mom how much she's appreciated. We do hope it still brought some brightness to her special day and we promise to do better should you give us the opportunity in the future.

Please do not hesitate to reach us at help@gifttree.com if there is any concern we can further assist with.

Best Regards,
Sara M.

My brothers and I sent my parents a basket for their 60th Wedding Anniversary. Due to the pandemic, we had to postpone their celebration, so we wanted to make sure they had something special to help celebrate such a milestone. I had my mom send me a picture when it was delivered. When I saw the basket, I knew it was NOT what I ordered. I asked her to list the items in the basket. Here is what was wrong with what they received...
- There were only 10 items in the basket, when there should have been 15.
- Only 2 of those items were correct. They got a lot of nuts, which my mom doesn't even like!
- The bow was not the right color.
- The card that was filled out from my brothers and me, was not included!
I emailed Gift Tree to share my disappointment. I told them it was not the correct basket, and I was upset.
They replied, stating there are times when they run out of items, so they must substitute. I can understand this, but I was never notified of any changes that were going to be made to my order. I have a huge problem with not fulfilling what I purchased, and them just tossing a bunch of nuts, as a replacement, for the items that were supposed to be in the basket.
I asked them to make good on their error. Their idea of making good was to... Give me a 40% discount ( from what I paid for the basket) toward my next purchase, or 20% of my purchase back on my credit card. Really?
Since I will NEVER use this company again, I chose the latter. However, it is not about the money! It is about trying to give my parents a lovely basket for their 60th Anniversary, and them getting a box of miscellaneous items!
I feel they dropped the ball, and their way of rectifying the situation was to credit me $22, as opposed to sending them the, actual, basket I ordered!
1st 3 photos is what I ordered, with the items that should have been included.
Last 2 pics is what they received!
