Peaches And Petals Subscription Review + Coupon- August 2016

Has anyone else still NOT received their box?? I have not received a tracking number or anything. I emailed them last week and they gave me a standard answer saying they would be shipping within 48 business hours. Well, over a week later and I still don’t have my box or tracking number. And they’ve already charged me for September! I’ve written another email saying I need a tracking number now, and they should not have charged me for September if my August box isn’t sent out yet. I think I’m done, but I’m scared if I cancel they won’t send either box!

Omg now I see what everyone is talking about now after I finally recieved my box weeks late. I am telling all of you that these necklaces are all over this site called Wish.com.They have a app and I really like some of the cute thing they have for a dollar or two. Shipping is a dollar or two as well. 90% of the stuff that has been in their boxes are from sites like Wish. Just like the Vintage Watch for Sept. I went and bought the same only for a dollar and shipping was a dollar too. Anyway if you like cool things you wouldnt normally buy but you will probably use then go to this site. This way you know you will like what you get and you can get 5 times more stuff. Paypal is a way to pay too. Another thing is that I seem to see lots of things that have been in a few subscription boxes…

I was thinking…is an anchor a well-known symbol of friendship? I had never heard of it nor two others I asked. If not, then why would P&P send an anchor necklace for a friendship themed box, unless they did know about the Dogeared anchor necklace with sentiment on the card?

I am so angry…. After emailing them for 2 days about my box that send it was shipping on the 17th, but now its almost the 26th and still hasn’t even left the warehouse. CS replied saying that my box would likely to be shipped next week. WHAT…. If you read there info it clearly says if ordered between the 25th and the 5th your box should ship on or around the 12th. I replied and said, ” So your telling me that the box I wanted to cancel isn’t gonna get to me until Sept.” It would be somewhat comforting if they sent me an email letting me know whats up like most subscription boxes. But no like always I get my info from here. Thank god for Liz and Mysubscriptionaddiction, and all of my fellow subscribers.I contacted Paypal and explained whats going on I keep seeing stuff you put into there boxes on Wish

Glad I cancelled!

OMG, I had no idea on the fake jewelry! And now there are a bunch of the Dogearred anchor necklaces for sale on eBay (priced at $25/30), so the “scam” is being unintentionally passed on to new consumers who will purchase it thinking they’re getting the real thing.

I haven’t even got my box yet. I can’t tell you how happy I am to not have to email them ever again and will never ever give them another penny. They take like a week to answers a question. I emailed them yesterday 2 times about my tracking number and how my box hasn’t left the warehouse. I am so angry at myself for getting another box and trying to use my points….My points were another nightmare. Grrrrrrrr.

Jammin Butter, the company that distributes this box, is an internet marketing business that buys items cheap and then in return sells them cheap. So, they mainly buy items at wholesale that have been overstocked or have some type of defect and can’t be sold in stores. Their headquarters is in my hometown. Below is an article a local business magazine published about them.

I am sure they got a great deal on the necklaces because of the legal packaging issues. Someone probably forgot to take out the packaging before shipping. I think most of the jewelry they send normally doesn’t come with the original packaging, or at least from what I recall. So, I think it really may have been an honest mistake and not them trying to deceive anyone.

I have received this box off/on over the past year. For the price point it is not too bad, but I have found that I end up giving away most items. They are definitely of lower quality/value. It is more of a miss for me, so I am taking a break awhile and will see what I think with future reviews.

I didn’t receive any email from Peaches and Petals in regards to the necklace. I have the necklace with the printing and thought the printing on the card was odd, like something done on a home printer/inkjet. Now knowing that it is counterfeit makes me want to call it quits. Sept will be my last box from them.

Liz, was that message from P&P about the incorrect packaging sent to ALL subscribers in the first round of shipping, or just those who directly contacted them about it? There’s a huge difference between the two and only one of them shows them taking a modicum of responsibility. I’m pretty sure they only wrote to those who wrote to them.

After that mess with the counterfeit necklace, I am so glad I got rid of this subscription box. The fact that they have not owned their actions for the Dogeared (a handmade-in-USA smaller company) counterfeit debacle is ridiculous. In fact, someone posted a review of their subscription box on their Facebook page that blatantly showed the fake Dogeared necklace with the branded card like it’s real and P&P liked it and said nothing. That was on Sunday. This is disgusting to me and follows their previous history which is a major reason I unsubscribed, because they just continuously refuse to own their mistakes (late shipping, etc.) until called on it and even then they are very hesitant to own up to it. No thank you

I always see so much hate for this box lol. I think they are just missing their audience. I get this box for my teen daughter (and occasionally take something for myself lol) but it’s not a luxe box. It’s important not to judge it as one. To me, it’s a perfect low cost box to treat my daughter and I feel like that’s who they should be marketing to. Subscription moms are used to a better quality but my daughter def doesn’t need a scarf valued at $200. The things in this box are usually fun and giftable to her peers.

Idk why this seems weird to me, but the Manna Kadar was in the Aug Birchbox too…

I got charged for this before getting the July box, so I was stuck with it. The whole thing is junk.

This was my first box and what a disappointment. The necklace is too short for my neck…LOL. I don’t like the saying on the picture frame and have no use for the fox port splitter even though it’s cute. I hope the Sept box is better but I’ll be cancelling.

Since the first box review of this I have not been able to understand why anyone would pay $15 or $20 for this monstrosity. It was obviously a box thrown together with crap they found and thought would satisfy.

I decided to cancel after receiving this box, I have been with them since November. This box was not what made up my mind. It was the rudeness of the customer service rep. that I emailed. I simply wanted to know why it was necessary for them to charge my cc a full 30 days for next month’s box before I received the current month’s box. Since he told me they charged on the same day every month, that if I didn’t want to be charged I should cancel, I did. No other explanation at all. I have already been charged for next month. And he refused to refund it, even though it was less than 24 hours after the charge was initiated, and while it was still pending on my card. I did ask my cc company to investigate on my behalf. I really liked this box in the beginning. But I won’t have any problem choosing another box as a replacement.

I had skipped this month upon seeing the theme but I am getting next months because I had used points and had purchased something from the store. I’ve seen the cat design splitters for $7.50 and I just googled the fox ones and they are on sale for $3.00 at a website called garageclothing

I’ve been subscribed to Peaches and Petals since the March box. I’ve seen quite a variety of boxes now, and of course I can’t expect the “quality” to be the same in comparison to something like PopSugar which is double the cost, so in that regard I do feel that it is apples and oranges. HOWEVER, I do think that Peaches and Petals is a bit of a scam as far as boxes go (and its only getting worse). After doing some research, its clear to see that the items for these boxes are simply international wholesale pieces either ordered from AliExpress or the Wish App. While I don’t necessarily have a problem with wholesale items like that, they try to pass it off as something high end. And they buy items that they can’t get enough of, so you have a “surprise” in your box, which is just other junk they used to fill the box and always leaves the third wave with the worst items. Seeing spoilers and reviews only to open your box and find two or three different items (after being excited about others) has always been a huge let down for me. Their packaging is TERRIBLE, just throwing items in a large box with one sheet of tissue paper, I often receive broken or damaged products. Kraft paper (so cheap) would easily fix that problem. And their shipping is the worst I’ve seen. They don’t tell customers when there is a delay and they do nothing to make it right. I’m 8 business days out from when my box was SUPPOSED to ship and it still hasn’t even moved. I subscribe to over 20 boxes, and as much as I want to stick with P&P, I think my money is better suited going to a different sub with a better reputation and quality. I finally decided after this that it was time to cancel and say goodbye to Peaches and Petals.

OMG I want the Gokdwn Girls card, I’m a huge fan!!! Some cute items even though some items were a miss.

Anna, would you consider (in the future) adding a photo of your fingers holding the item if it’s something like the bronzer/highlighter pan? We could get an idea of how big (or small) it is.

Just a thought! Thanks for an awesome review.

This box has been around for just about a year, and I’ve received all of them except for the last 3 of 2015– this one was the absolute worst. Instead of a frame for my Friendship Surprise I was sent a wooden box that looked used and dirty– it was chipped and scratched and the inside black paint felt tacky– I guess they were going for the “distressed” look. I am in the first “wave” of shipments and I was sent the necklace in branded packaging, but not the error message. This is usually a fun type of box for me to go through but this month just felt thrown together. The cards are unbranded. My items were sent in a too big, brown beat-up box (not like the nice white one that you got), and they were just swimming around. Luckily my Bronzer was undamaged– I saw where others had received ones that were pulverized. I had sent for the mystery box a couple of months ago and was very happy with that. Hopefully this was just an off month (for me, at least)…

It honestly bothers me that it wasnt shown that the necklace was a fraud and to show how they sent the 1st batch. It was very clear they knew what they sent and when caught, simply cut the paper off this 99 cent necklace which was clearly shown on the website. I feel like there should have been more of a disclaimer to be wary of this box.

Though not my favorite P&P box, it was definitely not the worst. I love the Golden Girl cards; I think they are so fun! The anchor necklace is very cute, simple, and subtle. My box was missing the bronzer duo, but they sent a replacement immediately. I don’t really use bronzer much either, so I may gift this item. My surprise item was a very nice wooden box. It seems well constructed and sturdy. It’s design is somewhat rustic, which I like, but I haven’t decided what to do with it yet….Potpourri in the living room? Mints in the kitchen? A “catch-all” for the bathroom or my bedroom? It is a very useful and versatile item – more so than the picture frame I think.
I know a lot of people complain that this box is cheap, but I usually enjoy the curation, and their customer service is the most responsive. They always follow the theme very well, and many products are so unique – things I’ve never seen before, or never would have bought for myself.

This box was a real dud
