I did almost all of my shopping online this year, so my list is pretty extensive.
Impressed List:
Crate & Barrel, Sephora, Tervis, Nordstroms,
Bath and Body Works:
All shipped my items within a day or two, packed them well and I rec'd my items quickly.
Dicks Sporting Goods:
They had an item that was an obvious price mistake. I ordered it, thinking the worst that would happen is that they would cancel my order. Within a couple of hours, they upped the price, so I awaited my cancellation order. Much to my surprise, they actually honored the price and shipped the order.
Not Impressed, But Not Surprised About it:
Old Navy and
Disney Store:
They are both always so slow to ship and use the slowest shipping method possible, so I ordered way ahead of time. However, considering its the holidays, they should have had more staff to get shipments out faster.
Amazon: I received all of my shipments quickly and in great condition, I'm just not as happy about the prices as I have been in the past. They had great deals on toys the last few years, but this year the prices were meh for the most part (at least what I was looking for.)
Not Impressed At All:
Bonton:
My item was shipped in a thin, plastic envelope, rather than a box. The box the item inside was packaged in was completely crushed, almost to the point of being flattened. I was able to salvage the box since it was a gift for my own child and the pieces to the hotwheel track inside don't appear to be damaged. But I would have been embarrassed giving that to someone else, if it had been a gift for someone else.
Godiva:
I have ordered a godiva gift basket for the past five years for my grandparents, as well as for both mothers day, fathers day and their birthday. Each time, it is shipped two day. This time, it was shipped ground. I hope the contents are still good after being tossed around and sitting on shipping docks for 7 days....
Harry & David:
Their shipping charges are beyond excessive. Unfortunately, my mom loves their moose munch and we don't have a physical store here any longer, so shipping from their website is the only way to go.
Victorias Secret:
I placed an order on Black Friday online. I rec'd an email the next day that one item was backordered (it wasn't marked that way when I ordered) but that it would be sent out Dec. 5. It wasn't shipped until Dec 14th and all the while, the item was available in all the victorias secret stores I visited in person. I would have just picked it up then, but then I would lose out on the coupon code I had when I placed the order for that item. Ridiculous that they can't pull it from one of their stores and send it, especially when it wasn't marked as out of stock when it was ordered.
