I am in a new relationship and wanted to impress this man and his young daughter with a dozen of the gourmet dipped fancy strawberries before my arrival that weekend. Everything was perfect with the order through delivery. When he called to express his gratitude, I asked for a picture and let out gasped at the site of what was supposed to be strawberries. The chocolate edibles did not resemble any type of fruit much less strawberries because the the entire piece had been submerged and no portion of the berry was shown. I was embarrassed to say the least.
I received constant discount emails but have chosen to not order from this company again.

Horrible service
April 27, 2020

I ordered from Shari's Berries a week in advance but it never reached the recipient. When I called to inquire about it, I was on hold for over thirty mins and finally when I was helped they refused to accommodate me and will now deliver two days later than the actual delivery request date. First of all, they are way too expensive and do not provide good customer service. I will not order from Shari's berries ever again. I'd rather give business to more deserving stores.

Like everyone else, ordered on 2/3 for delivery on 2/14 and checked Tuesday and Wednesday still said "processing order." Today they change the UPS tracking number which says will be delivered tomorrow 2/15. Called customer service and twice the line dropped, twice is was busy and once the line went silent. Emailed at noon, no reply. Emailed at 5 pm, no reply. I will never use this service again. I've order multiple times before but they don't have the service to full fill orders this year on time

So dissatisfied this year
February 15, 2018

My husband has sent me Shari's Berries the past 3 years. This year my order was to arrive 2/13, at a discounted price to get them the day before Valentines. My husband was told they were on the way and would be here by 8:00 PM, 2/13. Didn't arrive, next day, 2/14, didn't arrive. Today, 2/15, they arrived and felt warm. I won't eat the berries as they may not be safe to eat, but I will eat the pretzels. You have lost a loyal customer Shari's Berries, and by the appearance of your reviews for this year, sounds like something has changed at your company. The horrible fact is we are not being compensated in any way, every one of these late delivery reviews should get their money back.

SAVE YOUR Money
February 15, 2017

Horrible, fruit was disgusting and chocolate was thin. Way over-priced. You can purchase a better product at the local food store. By the way the cheaper ones I bought were amazing. These were just terrible. Lots of bad reviews. Why is this company in business?

Bad Berries
October 16, 2022

For our fourth anniversary my wife sent an assortment of strawberries to me. First order was not what she ordered so they sent another dozen. We received very small strawberries and four of them had gone bad already. We won't be ordering from them again.

Worst Ever
April 6, 2017

I ordered a super cute cookie arrangement for my daughter after a surgery. The week before I scheduled a Tuesday delivery, it's now Thursday and still nothing! Customer service was like"oh well" I will never ever order from here again!

Fraud
February 14, 2019

Ordered. Paid. And guaranteed delivery on time. Never received it. It's fraud plain and simple. I say since there's a whole bunch if us with out email receipt. CLASS ACTION SUIT. There's an emotional factor with this. It's Valentines day.

Ordered online. Delivery date was made. Did not deliver on date requested. Was 1 week late. Nothing alerted me that delivery was not possible. No credit or refund offered after calling 2 times to find out why it was not delivered. I will never order here again. I'll stick with the gourmet apple.

Never again!
February 9, 2019

Only gave one star because you can't give zero! Ordered two different items for my grandsons, only one was delivered. I was charged an extra delivery for a Sat even though the missing package was supposedly delivered on Friday. Could not understand the person at customer service, so basically got nowhere with that. This has been a terrible experience and would not recommend this company to even my worst enemy. I want my money back!

Great!
February 18, 2019

The chocolates were great and well packaged. My order was delivered late, like everyone else but they worked hard to make it right and have me double what I paid for. And refunded me for my shipping. Based on the reaction of everyone's late delivery I'm guessing something big happened and affected a lot of deliveries. I WILL order from them again. Mistakes happen, it's about how you recover from them that makes the difference

Horrible company, do not order
April 10, 2021

I ordered $400 worth of berry orders during the holidays. They were more than happy to take my order and my cc number. I called to complain about what was received. Some berries were rotten, small, NOTHING like the pictures! No response, or they would "claim" to give me a $15 coupon on my next order. NEXT ORDER! Nooooo! Save your $, always check reviews before ordering. I wish I had checked.

After receiving the first order that my daughter had sent for Mother's Day with dead flowers and melted berries, which by the way was delivered on the Monday after Mothers Day, being shipped out on Thursday. These went right in trash. Replacement shipment arrived on Wednesday with wilted tulips and cracked berries. Looking nothing like advertisement pictures. This was no charge. They refunded the original cost. However disappointed. I have had before and we're fine.

Just don't...
May 13, 2017

If I could give 1/2 a star or no stars at all, I would. This company is a joke and completely botched my Mother's Day gift. Long and short of it - ordered with plenty of time, was lied to by their insanely incompetent and impossible to understand customer service. Now my gift will arrive on Tuesday...? Seriously, they were as bad as it gets and everyone should stay away from this company.

Wish I could give 0
December 2, 2018

Shari's Berries charges $15 shipping per item even if all items are shipped to the same place. So if you purchase 10 $20 items, you pay $150 in shipping. That's $#*!ing ridiculous. I will never dignify that with my business.

Gave these to my wife for Mothers Day. The package was sticky with strawberry juice. Ice packet was defrosted and wet. Strawberries were on the verge of spoiling and the chocolate was broken and falling off them. Contacted customer service and they replaced the berries and gave me a $20.00 coupon which I don't intend to use.
Delivered in 4 days.
Replacement Strawberries were even worse.
Would not buy again or recommend.

Lousy
May 12, 2018

I ordered in plenty of time for the delivery, but paid extra just to make sure it was delivered on time. First customer rep assured me that because it wasnt delivered, she would overnight it and for my troubles would also send my mom flowers. I check no flowers, so I called back. First rep never placed the order so my mom is not going to receive anything for mothers day as I am in another state and her berries which were to be delivered Friday she will not receive until Monday! So do you really expect the item to be edible after 5 days of setting in a UPS warehouse.

Worst experience ever!
October 17, 2020

I tried Shari's Berries for the first time this week. They charge a ridiculous service fee that they don't tell you about till they tack it on at the end and then there is no actual customer service. Never sent me the receipt. The fruit was so hard no one could eat it. The chocolate dipped strawberries were mediocre at best. Edible Arrangements is much better in every way, save yourself the heartache and call Edible Arrangements.

If you have an occasion that needs a specific date for delivery - find another company. Mothers Day will come and go without the $125 I spent. After 2 calls I was finally told it would be there by Tuesday. 2 days after mothers day. Horrible experience. Horrible customer service. Never again. If I could rate this with negative stars I would. Buyer beware.
