Neutral | boru (15 reviews) | On Jul 15, 2010, boru Altoona, WI wrote: I have placed orders from eFlowerGarden before it changed to it's current "Coop" format, and was generally satisfied. This is the first time I have tried to place an order through their "Coop." I am not pleased. The system is cumbersome and not customer friendly. One must cut and paste items into a comment section as well as type additional information for each item. I had registered, logged in and spent almost 2 hours putting together an order from what is really not that extensive of a selection. The prices, while good, are not exceptional. One can find better "deals" if one shops around. I only finished the order because once I started, I felt that too much effort had been made to quit. In the end, when I submitted my order, I received an "error." In the blink of an eye, all my effort was lost to cyberspace. No way would I put forth energy again for what I think is so little potential reward. My problem is with their online system and not with their quality of product or service, so I will give them a neutral rather than a negative. For those willing to put forth such effort merely to place an order, go for it! I will not.

Then when the first emails came in making us aware of a "problem when submitting the order" I needed to contact the IT person who was flying at that time from New York to Atlanta. In the meantime, I also got an email from above customer advising us of the frustration they had to go through and understandebly so. I answered the email that we were looking into it what might cause the trouble and asked her to please give us time to find the problem and correct it. In the meantime we got this "neutral" remark on our report card, which is fine, but we felt it needed an explanation. |

I emailed them six days ago about problems with my order & they do not reply. On June 1st, 2006, TheFountainLady changed the rating from negative to neutral and added the following: I am upgrading my rating to a neutral, as after I posted here on this forum I was contacted by eFlower Garden about the problems with my order. They sent me a replacement Hosta that was more the size that I expected the first time, with two eyes and several leaves. I do not know how the Caladiums will do now that they have finally been planted. Having to hold them over for a month and a half before they could be planted can not be good for these bulbs. They are now shriveled, as you would expect. I planted them this morning, watered them in good & have my fingers crossed. I may order from this company in the future, because of their good prices - but I will not allow them to pick a ship date ever again. If you live in the north and are in zone 5 or lower - you need to tell them exactly when you wish them to ship your plants to you .... as they will not look up on the frost charts (like many other companies do) to see when it is safe to plant in your zone. |
