I was reading the other reviews of the Harry and David online store (www.harryanddavid.com) and while I don't doubt the experiences of the other Epinioners, mine seemed so different I felt the need to chime in.
Before I even begin to review...

Pros: Zero, zilch, nada, nihil Cons: The entirety of my review
As a former employee of Harry and David, I am intimately familiar with the workings of the slavish hell-hole.
What Crap Do They Sell?
Harry and David specializes in exploiting the middle class by claiming...

I have used Harry & David for several years after receiving a box of Royal Riviera Pears for Christmas one year. My experience has been VERY different from most other reviewers - I have never had a complaint, orders have always arrived on time and the ...

I am so peeved at this time, I wondered whether or not I should cool down before writing this review. But, I wanted to document it as soon as...

Pros: quality of product Cons: customer service
I ordered a gift for my parents through the Harry and David online store. According to the website, orders are shipped the next business day. My order was placed online on a Friday evening, so I expected it would ship on Monday. It did not.

Harry and David are a fine company selling overpriced fruit and goodies to the masses. That's the beauty of capitalism, offer to sell something, people will buy it. I had ordered from Harry and David before and have visited their "outlet" store. Can't...

Whether it's for a neighbor, a friend or family member far away, someone who "has it all," or for someone who just enjoys great treats...Harry & David's is the place to check! With everything from the most delicious pears & apples (& all sorts of other...

I will never order from Harry and David again. Having tried H&D products from a local grocer, there was no doubt that the products are good. However, after my experience with customer service, I know I will never make the mistake of ordering from them ...

First let me preface this by declaring that I have had both good and bad experiences with Harry and David. It seems that as the company has grown over the recent years the quality and care has decreased, while the prices have gone up. BEWARE!!! HOLIDA ...

I placed an order to have the cholesterol-free low-fat dessert cakes delivered to my Mom for her birthday and had no problem navigating the website. She told me the cakes were completely spoiled when they arrived. She said they had melted in their ...

Update, 08/18/06: Yes! I got my peaches, and my pears, too. I completely forgot that I had ordered pears. I'm SO glad that I gave Harry & David a second chance! The peaches and pears are delicious, as were the apricots. They were not ...

Subscribed to the yearly fruit of the month club last year. What a waste of money! Most of the fruits came damaged or didn't last very long after delivery. I recall one month when all they sent was 1 lousy papaya. That month, the papaya cost me...

I have used the Harry and David online store several times during the holiday season. While I love the products that Harry and David has to offer, I have to admit that their products are quite expensive, shipping times are pretty long, and shipping ...

I used to order some holiday gifts from Harry and David. I believed that they sold high-quality gift baskets and they were the perfect thing to send to far-flung relatives. I occasionally ordered myself a box of "maverick" fruit for parties, and the ...

Harry & David is a respectable company. The "Outlet" and the "brokers" that sell for them are the worst! I believe Harry and David should be really aware of the reputation that is at stake because of the "other brokers that represent them. I thought I was dealing with Harry & David. I even recieved emails with their company name...and low & behold..it was a "outlet broker" and it was a terrible experience. The actual Harry & David company made good on the situation when it was brought to their attention.

the order took longer than i thought it would at first and when it arrived it arrived without the card, so the person receivied it did not know who it was from and had to call the company. i didn't like that. however, the plant did get there and it was in good condition so everything turned out alright.

I was very disapointed we were promised that the gift would arrive in time for easter, as yet is still hasn't arrived, although i did pay for express delivery. I will be making sure that the cost is not passed onto us and if it is i will be most anoyed. I also sent an e mail a week ago and still have had no reply Regards carmel.

The product was not delivered on mother's day as promised. Additional shipping was spent to guarantee delivery. Issues with UPS/FedEx caused to miss the delivery date. However, H&D responded immediately and exceeded my expectations. They credited the shipping, sent an appoligy to my Mom and myself, and included a $10 credit for future purchases. I will shop with them again.

Excellent as usual, but what I didn't know is that if I shop through a third party web-service, the order is delayed. The extra money I paid for express shipping didn't do me any good because it seems to take 2 days for the order processor to fax my order to Harry and David's. (And in this day and age, why on earth is a 2 day fax necessary when a split second instant e-mail would do the same job?) I wasn't told this up front and didn't appreciate it at all. However, the Harry and David's part in the process worked just fine, once they actually received the order.

Everything was great, except that I could not figure out how to track my order with the vendor. I had to set up an account before I could do anything, and then the order did not appear in my recent orders, probably because I signed up with the web site AFTER I ordered something.
