They've delivered excellent product value for the 2 boxes I've received so far. They choose good products and although some boxes have higher value than others (and I have not received any of the super hero items), mine have been reasonable and I've been happy with my products. I have a feeling they are inexperienced at running this sort of enterprise and are "learning by doing" (which I hope translates into ordering well in advance to avoid customs delays in future). This is an explanation but is not meant as an excuse. My concern is that they need to hire help for customer service responses, and need to get some marketing and company image consulting. They could have a very nice product, and a happy customer base, if they were to provide more formalized and prompt responses to customer inquiries, focus on their website (which they ignore while concentrating on their social media presence), and take a hard look at their delivery schedule (moving to quarterly rather than every other month, for instance). 

I am not bothered by the boxes being closer to quarterly than to every other month; I believe I will receive my 6 paid-for boxes although it will take much longer than the original year I expected. I do receive responses when I contact them by email, I just hope they will take some of the suggestions provided to them and turn this promising box into an all-around high quality experience. 

 
no i have not subscribed for this reason they are running a company poorly at best and are not going to take my money and not deliver said product when they say they would. they are a rip off
I totally understand not subscribing because they are not delivering their product in the expected time frame.

Fortunately, that doesn't bother me in the slightest, I'm still getting what I paid for and I don't have any time constraints. However, I'm pretty laid back.

I do have to say that I don't agree that they are a rip off. A rip off would be not receiving your money's worth. I have *always* received far more than my money's worth. While the variations drive me nuts, I can't say that they've ever "ripped me off."  And I'm a subscriber so I feel like I have the experience to say that.

Will I continue my subscription when my year is up? I honestly don't know. If they go quarterly, I will. If they stay bi-monthly and continue to have shipping delays... Most likely not.

The problem is that the box *is* worth it. Especially at the price I paid. Absolutely worth it. So it's hard to give a firm answer. 

 
@@Saffyra and @@DianeER - agree completely.  I don't think any of us subscribers are shrinking violets so we can definitely raise holy h*ll if/when we feel it's warranted.  Personally I have really liked (and in some cases loved) the products I have received and I know that I will get the full year's subscription.  The fact that the boxes are so nice is why the delay gets especially frustrating - you want to see what the next box is delivering.  With that said... they should definitely expand their customer service and improve communications.

 The problem I have with them  even more than the box value is the way they treat people. They have so much nerve not sending out emails when there are box delays. It is so upsetting that they feel they can do whatever they want.  What would be the big deal to drop a mass email to people.  They have made me dislike them from this.

 
I definitely agree that the customer service needs big-time improvement. Their response time is abysmal. That would definitely have to go in the "not resubscribing" column, if I was to be tallying pros and cons.

 
I am looking forward to this box....even though it's late as usual. I do appreciate how the value is always there. They may inflate and not meet the minimum that they promised. Which has really peeved me. But compared to what you pay the value is there and the products are good. All I wish for is better communication and more food items! I say this after recent experiences with other boxes. I am done with year sub box subscriptions. It seems like when I get on board they go downhill and there is nothing you can do about it but ride it out. Even when the value clearly isn't there. I guess the most recent LLB box left a super bad taste in my mouth. Felt like a dollar store box.

 
Sadly, I don't have any tracking info in my FedEx.  I would have hoped that they worked over the weekend to get everything setup to get picked up immediately in the AM since they started shipping some on Friday.  Guess not.  

 
I have tracking. I think they are packing and shipping all at once due to everything being so late. I'm sure you won't be forgotten! I hope we get spoilers soon. Anyone got there's in California?

Texas people are first. Some have had shipping on Friday...delivery for Weds. Mine won't come until Nov 2nd at the earliest if I don't get shipping notice today

So much for "October".  Sorry - just a little disappointed in *waiting*...I'll let it go once it arrives.

I'd love to be pleasantly surprised that I get the shipping notice after it's already making it's way here...  just cautious around being hopeful with these guys :) /emoticons/[email protected] 2x" width="20" height="20" />

Oh that's right! Mine is in California...durr. I have been so disappointed by boxes recently that I am looking forward to this one. Even though I have been so peeved at them. At least the value is there and I usually find something I love with each parcel.

 
One thing I do have to say...they do have the BEST packaging in the market!  I hope they don't change that anytime soon. I know it has remained the same for this round at least.

No shipping email yet, and no tracking info in my FedEx. Really excited to see what's in this parcel!

 
My box is here, and besides for the perfume, not a single thing I am excited about. Hope everyone else enjoys theirs more than I do. I hate to be a Debbie downer, but I just feel like I have been so patient with this box and their terrible customer service, and just feel really let down.

Did you get a scarf or a bag?  Is there a good fall food items in the box?

 
No scarf or bag, but I did get a belt. I got mustard walnuts and tea, but have a nut allergy. image.jpg
