Don’t count on delivery as quoted
Before ordering consider UNTRUSTWORTHY delivery! If your order is a gift shop elsewhere for timely delivery. Customer service responded to send cheeses BUT no accounting for error. Beware!

So, based solely on my experience with igourmet, I really had begun to suspect it is a scam. I ordered an expensive gift box days before their deadline for Christmas delivery. I was promised delivery between Dec 18-22nd and I was to receive an email when it shipped. When I hadn't received an email by the 19th, I called to confirm everything was still on schedule. I was assured it would be delivered by the 22nd. Customer Service rep said they would track package personally and send me an email before they left work with a status update. Never happened. When I still hadn't received the shipping email on the 22nd, I called again. I was told that it had been processed and was on the dock to be loaded into the FedEx truck that night and would be delivered on the 23rd. She said she upgraded my order to priority overnight shipping and it would for sure get there before Christmas. Customer Service rep said they would track package personally and send me an email before they left work with a status update. Never happened. Of course, I did not receive the shipping email either and they are closed on the weekend. So the gift never even shipped! Christmas was Monday and my friends had no gift, and I had no explanation except that igourmet had totally dropped the ball and was probably a scam. So I called (yet again!) Tuesday morning. Really nice but ineffectual customer service said they would ship it Tuesday for Wednesday delivery, for sure. Still did not ship. What is wrong with this company that they absolutely do not communicate back to the customer when there is an issue or a question or a problem? I guessed they were just stringing me along to see how long they could keep my money. Just as I called 1st thing Wednesday morning to cancel the whole thing, I received an email that it had shipped. Wrong! It actually did not go to Fedex until 4pm that afternoon. It FINALLY arrived Thursday after Christmas. Lest anyone is confused, this was NOT a "there were too many packages for Fedex to deliver" issue. This was an "Igourmet cannot get it out the door when promised" issue. Igourmet completely lost any repeat business from me, my companies and my friends and family. I will never ever trust igourmet again. I absolutely do NOT RECOMMEND ordering from this company. Doesn't matter if the product is good or not because they cannot be trusted to get it delivered when they say they will.

Horrible service! Ordered multiple baskets and only one was delivered on time. I ordered all baskets on December 3rd for Christmas delivery and paid in advance. I contacted them multiple times to ensure on time delivery because I had a similar issue last year. I was told no problem. The. I received an email on the 26th that delivery would be on the 27th or 28th. No explanation! No apology! This company is terrible.

I like the fact that I can order bulk paneer here. (Paneer is an Indian cheese.). I've also enjoyed other cheeses from here although they seem overpriced. For that reason I order only rarely.

It is not just what went wrong, but that they removed my negative review about a product they sold, even though I complimented them on how they handled it.

GOOD FOOD, NOT WHAT THEY SAY IT IS.. IDJIOTS.. Emmentaler was registered in 2000 as an appellation d'origine contrôlée (AOC) in Switzerland.[9][10][11] In 2013, it was replaced by the appellation d'origine protégée (AOP) certification AS A FORMER US CITIZEN WHO LIVED 4 YEARS IN FRIBOURG CANTON FROM WHERE WE COLDS SEE GRYUER CASTLE, LAC NEUCHATAL, PROXIME TO EMMETAL , THE GREAT CHEESE BASKET:). EMMENTAL IS NOT MADE NOT IN FRANCE, Baby Brie, Petit Brie, Mini Brie all are the same as the regular Brie, but their diameters are smaller, giving different names. Jmbon sec is not a variety of ham nor an apppellation controlle product. it is a process of which there are over 50 ways to dry aham and many varieties of PIGS.

I placed a Christmas order on December 12th for more than $200 ordering a couple of food boxes to be delivered to my son in LA on Christmas Eve. Unfortunately the package was not shipped until late on December 23rd and so it missed the deadline. However, the company was very apologetic and because the package contained some perishables, they re-sent those elements at no extra cost.

Bought the 6 month cheese subscription mid December for Christmas delivery. Received an Email that read "Your order #S956175 was shipped out on 12/23/2022. You can track your package at any time using the button below." TOTAL BS. According to Fedex, a label was created on Dec 23 (i.e. not even on time for a Dec 23 delivery!!) and Fedex still has not received the package as of Dec. 26). Poor shipping department. C'mon!! Creating a label on Dec 23.. the requested date of delivery???
