Bait N Switch
June 3, 2017

Joined after they listed 93 cases of Polar Seltzer Water in Toasted Coconut and listed price for $9.99 a case of 12. Good price! So I tried to order 6 cases for the free shipping and now all of a sudden they are out of stock. Fool me once, shame on you... they aren't gonna get a chance to fool me twice. Cancel my membership.

We're so sorry. We love the Toasted Coconut Polar too and apparently, so did our customers. If there are other flavors you'd like to see, please let us know!

Worked once, then it all fell apart
May 25, 2017

Their prices are not good enough to put up with the hassle, you can get the same products at Amazon.com or Walmart.com. Or half a dozen other sites online

My first order went well, the food was fine and shipped quickly.

My second order got cancelled with no reason given. I reordered and it was cancelled again. Fraud alert was the reason given. Their system cannot link me to the address given. I ordered for a business address with the business credit card. The order is shipping to the same address as the card billing address, but the Boxed.com system cannot tolerate a name that doesn't match.

Thank Goodness for honest reviewers
May 25, 2017

THANK YOU REVIEWERS! I am very glad I read this before using the service. My biggest concern is NOT pricing but quality & freshness (old best/use/sell by dates) and it seems to me this fails more than not, no amount of discount is worth it.
As to the reply on "stupid diapers" I am sure you don't have children & probably shouldn't, they are one of new parents BIGGEST expenses since they are used for nearly 2yrs. You sound stupid!

Too expensive
May 22, 2017

You don't really get free shipping as it is built into the cost of the products. Noticed two of my items were near Best Buy dates. If I wanted that I could have gone to a dollar store. Gave them a chance but I think Costco will retain my business. Read some of the reviews and they look like they were written buy employees. Who writes a review and includes promo code info?

Boxed.com is a big disappointment!
May 11, 2017

I bought into this feel good company that pays for employee weddings and reimburses college tuition. But three back to back orders were all delivered dammaged or aged. Batteries were from 2015, two years old, some food items were about to expire, items were obviously crushed and leaking before shipping. Customer service promised a refund. But after one week, I am still waiting for any refund or signs of life from this company. Prices were not better than Walmart. Shipped boxes were 59 pounds making it necessary to open them outside. Never again.

I canceled my account!
May 6, 2017

I received an email survey from Boxed.com, I completed it and received a 20% off my next purchase. I tried to place an order and the promo code wouldn't work. I contacted customer severe and was given two options:
Place my order at full price and afterwards they will give me a partial refund (a refund amount was never stated) at a later time... The last option was that they don't have any valid 20% coupons at this time so I can take a 15% promo code - or leave it.
I chose to leave..

Great customer service
April 13, 2017

This is a great way for me to buy my household things online. The delivery is free after I buy 50 dollars worth. The delivery is very fast. With every order I get 2 free samples and sometimes they will put extra samples in there. They put some chocolate marshmallow Easter eggs in one order. It's the small things that make me smile. I don't know what Mom W. Is talking about when she said she couldn't deliver to someone else. I did, and had no problems doing it. Must be user error. I highly recommend boxed.com.

If the address on your card does not match your shipping address, they cancel your other. They will re-instate my order if I send a utility bill. Imagine if every online store asks for this before shipping a gift!

Boxed is practicing the "ancient money technique" of holding my money hostage? And here's what the customer service from Boxed replied:

Thanks for being a Boxed customer. We appreciate you, a bulkload!

When shopping with Boxed, you receive 1% Boxed Cash Rewards on the total price of your order, every time you shop with us. On the Checkout page, locate the 'Apply Cash Rewards' section. If you have at least $2 in Boxed Cash Rewards available, click 'Apply'. You can redeem in multiples of $2 (so if you have $5 in Boxed Cash Rewards, you can redeem $4 and the $1 will stay in your account until you have $2 in Boxed Cash Rewards to redeem). To view your Boxed Cash Rewards, go to Account> Boxed Benefits > Cash Rewards.

Please let us know if there is anything else we can help you with.

All the best (in bulk!),

Jasmine from Team Boxed

And so my other reply, "That's stupid!"

I shop at BJs and last time I was there, I checked pricing on items I normally get. The prices at boxed.com were maybe 5 or 10 cents higher but I am willing to pay that not to have to shop at BJs. And there is no membership fee at boxed. The shipping is very fast - I expected to wait at least a week for my shipment but it arrived in about 3 days. Their brand, Prince & Spring is great - I use their toilet paper and paper towels - both are comparable to other higher priced brands. I shop at boxed almost every week. I absolutely love it!

EXCELLENT EXPERIENCE!
March 31, 2017

Fantastic prices, fast delivery! I would recommend Boxed to everyone! Some people write negative reviews regarding pricing, but some products are more or less at many different sites. I find that Amazon and Walmart both have higher prices at times, it all depends on the product. If Boxed costs more for your stupid diapers, then buy them somewhere else Moron! BOXED IS AWESOME! TRY IT OUT! FIVE STARS ALL THE WAY. THANKS BOXED!

Please explain why Pampers Swaddlers is ridiculously more expensive than Amazon or Wal-Mart. A lot of items cost way more than other stores whether in-store or online. I don't understand

Fake discount

So-called wholesale prices are ridiculously high compare to amazon. Eg. Pampers swaddler diapers almost twice the price as those sold on amazon.

Will Most Definitely Buy Here Again!
March 17, 2017

I just received my first Boxed.com purchase today and am extremely impressed with how quickly it arrived, 2 days, with all items ordered and packed very well. It came in two large sturdy boxes with invoices in both. The deals I received were incredible plus I can get additional credits towards merchandise by referring my friends. The website is pretty basic and easy to navigate and the free samples are a nice touch. I hope eventually they develop a customer service center where you can get someone live if needed. Other than that, this was a fabulous purchase and the main reason I am coming back is because the prices on my items were phenomenally so much lower than any other retail entity. Great company!
