This seems too good to be true!
I placed 4 orders - one for us and one for each of my siblings and their families. The code works each time. i never created an account, so not sure if that matters.

Thanks Jo.
Fingers crossed it works!

Just ordered one, and went to order another and it now says that it isn't available in my zip code.

Same here, I quickly ordered for us and then thought I should have got one as a gift but it wouldn't let me order again, maybe it's a one time deal :( Bummer, such a great deal, can't blame them though!

it says the "product is no longer available" for me. That sold out fast.

That was great! Thanks! But oh now the guilt- got one in for one grandma but not the other one....

Thanks a lot for posting! This will be a nice gift for my neighbor. Got one, and also picked up these two for $7.49 each after the code (even though it says it doesn't accept discounts-- still worked & got an order confirmation). http://ww10.1800baskets.com/product.do?skuCode=94800 and http://ww10.1800baskets.com/product.do?baseCode=94880&cm_cid=r

Are there any other options in the $10-15 range with free shipping?

The sale items are now showing with "Sorry, we cannot accept promotion code discounts on this item". Let's hope they don't cancel the earlier orders.

I placed several orders before the offer got pulled - thanks! I received confirmation emails for two of the orders, but not the other two that were out of state. Hoping they all went through. Agree that it seemed way too good to be true!

Went back to order something different immediately after the first offer died, and the shipping was no longer free :-( Great while it lasted!

I am just starting to get the email confirmation too. Crossing fingers ...

I placed one order to be shipped to my neighbors, and haven't received a confirmation. Maybe I should not have paid with PP. :(

Kaylee31

I paid with PP for all 3 of my orders, but only received a confirmation for one of them-- the last order I placed. Crossing my fingers the others go through.

i received confirmation emails for 2 of the 4 orders i placed. ironically, the 2 that didn't receive confirmation emails from were the ones i really wanted to receive it! (me & my brother we're staying with over the holiday weekend). other 2 for my other siblings.

Boo. I just got the email that my order was cancelled. I ordered around 12:30 cst. That sure would have been yummy :)

:yeahthat: Just got my cancellation too, and I ordered around the same time frame/

I ordered at around the same time. One out of my 4 orders was cancelled. The weird thing was that they cancelled the first one that I ordered. My confirmation emails came through without any order.

I placed one order and have not received a confirmation email. I won't be holding my breath... But thanks for posting OP, it was worth a shot!

I placed two orders and received one confirmation and one cancellation. It will be interesting to see if the one ships at all.

Just got mine cancelled :( Don't blame them for that price.

I got a cancellation too. Oh well, it was worth a try.

I called and they said that they cancelled all the orders :-(

They apparently didn't cancel my order. I never received a confirmation email, but the basket was just delivered at my door. It's cute and perfect to give to a lady at work tomorrow!

Not sure why mine went through :shrug: , but I hope I'm not the only one!

They sent me a cancellation notice today stating they ran out so maybe they did fulfill some orders.

Jo..
12-22-2011, 06:31 PM
I ordered before I even posted the deal, and I got a cancellation email.

I still haven't been refunded, though.

Jo..
12-28-2011, 10:56 PM
I still haven't received a PP refund. Obviously the $2 and change isn't a big deal, but the principle has me pissed off. I have sent and received several emails. TODAY I received an order confirmation email (for an order that I placed on 12/20 to be delivered 12/23)!

This was AFTER I got a cancellation email.

So far no gift basket and no money.

I called them and asked for my money back and was told that PP refunds could take several days or weeks to process, and that it was PPs fault. Which is utter crap, because friends and I swap clothes and PP money all of the time, and refunds are instant when I overpay or they overpay and we refund eachother.

I knew this deal was screaming and likely too good to be true, but DO NOT let them keep your money for free. They are shady.

Thanks for the warning. I realized I have not received my refund yet for my cancelled order either.

Jo..
12-30-2011, 09:33 PM
They sent me a kind of nasty email in response to my request for a refund. Yet they still haven't issued it. Will never shop there again, no matter how good the deal!

I have filed a claim with PP. This company is ridiculous.

kaitlyns.mom
01-03-2012, 05:22 PM
I filed a claim as well.

Kaylee31
01-03-2012, 07:08 PM
I filed a claim as well.

:yeahthat: I know it's only $2.50, but I want my money back!

kaitlyns.mom

:yeahthat: I know it's only $2.50, but I want my money back!

I know! I made two separate purchases so I had to file two separate $2.50 claims. :rolleyes: Plus I am not a fan of just throwing money away.

Did you notice they bypass the "resolution" part and go straight to "elevating to a claim"? Must be some option 1800baskets chose.

Jo..
01-03-2012, 09:25 PM
I just sent THEM a nasty email. I am so annoyed.


I still have not received a refund despite repeated calls and emails. I have escalated to a pp claim, filed a report with the BBB, and am posting poor reviews of your company all over the internet. Hope that keeping my $2 and change was worth the bad press and headaches you will receive.

Momit
01-03-2012, 09:31 PM
Are you all having problems getting a refund throuh Paypal? I used a credit card and never saw anything - charge or refund - on my statement so it's as if the whole thing never happened as far as I can tell.

Jo..
01-03-2012, 09:42 PM
I paid with my PP balance. They have repeatedly said they would refund me, and have not.

kaitlyns.mom

Paypal is initiating a refund for both of my purchases.

Jo..
01-17-2012, 09:28 AM
I won the dispute through PP and got my money back.

Kaylee31
01-17-2012, 07:25 PM
Thanks for updating. I just checked on the dispute I opened on 1/2 and it's still pending, so hopefully I will get my $2 returned this week. :p
ETA: got my paypal refunded this morning.

Keep on them. I finally got my $2.49 refunded today. I emailed customer service, and got a generic response (your credit card will be refunded, blah, blah), and I replied that I had used paypal. No response, so I escalated my claim via PayPal and finally got the resolution today.

Jo..
01-18-2012, 09:15 PM
Disgusting. I wonder how many people didn't feel like fighting for $2.49. The company likely walked away with thousands of dollars. I will never, EVER shop there again.
