I have been a good customer of Gardener's Supply Company for years. Over the past 2 years I have noticed very long wait times (44 minutes) to speak with customer service. I was contacting them to inquire on an order of Transplant Mix I placed over a month ago. They could not explain the delay. I explained that if they could not expedite the order, I would need to cancel as my seedlings needed to be transplanted ASAP. A manager, Matt came on to say he would contact their distribution division and call me back. I said again, if cant be shipped ASAP with quick shipping, I would need to cancel. No phone call. Instead, they charged my PayPal account but still NO Tracking number available. I wrote to cancel the order. They responded they were unable to cancel, still no tracking number tho but I was welcome to return the order.....IF i ever receive it!!! VERY disappointed with this company and will NEVER order with them again.

Worst customer service and shopping experience of any company I’ve used in the last 10 years. The customer service phone number is a waste of time. No one answers and hold time exceed 45 min. Still haven’t received an update on my order and it’s been a month. The only time I actually got to speak to someone, they admitted they screwed up and I’d have my plant in 3 days. It’s been two weeks and still nothing. I’ve requested my money back… still no response. Thinking of taking legal action because this company is a racket. DO NOT do business with them. Save yourself the headache.

I ordered 1 quart of food safe wood sealer on 4/4/24 to be shipped in 3-5 days. After checking order status and calling GSC twice, I finally called on 4/25/24 and canceled my order. Customer service rep seemed pleased I was canceling the order. How difficult to go to warehouse and box up 1 quart of product to ship? Wow!

I placed an on-line order on March 31 and am having the same issue. Nothing has been shipped! They have debited my financial account several times but have not given me any shipping date. I gave up trying to get through to customer service. Whatever is going on with this company is resulting in no customer service and at this point, appears to be theft. I’m filing a complaint with the Vermont Attorney General’s office.

Terrible customer service management. Have waited weeks for the shipment of my goods. If the company is facing delays, they should inform customers of this! It’s unacceptable to not respond to emails asking for a status of shipment or take 30 mins to answer a phone call. Would NOT recommend company.

Order has not shipped over two weeks after ordering. Shipping was charged and I was told it would be refunded and it was not. Wait time to speak to someone was 58 minutes. I will not order from this company again.

Similar to previous posters - I placed an order for row cover material on 3/25 and still have not received it. I now have seedlings ready to be hardened off and planted outside but cannot do that until I m have these row covers. I called 1 week ago and waited the 25 ish minutes to speak to someone and they said they will refund shipping. I asked if they would cancel the order so that I could just buy a comparable Product from a different company and they could not cancel. A week later - items still have not shipped and I have seedlings starting to look pretty pathetic. At this point, I may just buy row covers from Amazon and return my order to sender when and if it does arrive. Ridiculous.

I ordered a seed starting kit and mix from Gardeners Supply Co. After 11 days, the order still hasn't shipped. When I called customer service, there was a 23-minute wait to speak with a rep. (!) I sent an email instead and am waiting to hear back. Unacceptable, will never order from them again.
