    Well Im afraid mine were pathetic and mostly dead/dried up.RRP £29.99-NO WAY! My wife just laughed at them. The flowers at the front of a Petrol Station are nicer.Never again.

    Mine (or rather my wifes) were awful. Thirstier and more dried up than a very thirsty and dried up thing. Have emailed customer services and registered my disappointment.

    Ours arrived yesterday. 4 carnation heads broken and the rest looking a bit hot and bothered - like the rest of us.

    However, after 24 hours soaking, they are perking up nicely.

    As a way of sending to a friend or relative, I would think the £10 cost is good value. But, I'm afraid it's not a good marketing tool to get folks to pay the full £30.

    I notice there is a code in each box for 50% off future orders. That makes an interesting dilemma - is £15 good value?

    Credit where it's due. Speedy and courteous reply from Customer Services who are arranging a replacement that will be sent out over the next few days. It means the anniversary present will be late but there you go.

    If you're unhappy with what you have received, drop them a mail, it's wroth 5 mins of your time.

    Had the call from my wife saying thank you for her flowers and they are very nice. She didn't complain so they must have been OK.
    Unfortunately delivered a day early - wedding anniversary not until tomorrow but the brownie points are at least now in the bank :D
    Even better - she doesn't know how little I spent on her :)

    I contacted them 3 times in total - still waiting for a replacement. Never again!
  • Another half dead bunch delivered here - will wait and see what the promised replacements are like.
  • Cheers, I've just ordered a bunch for the better half.
    I'm away for the weekend so she will get these and hopefully will make her happy.
    Back into Comping again after a break

    It's rare that I have to ask twice ;)

    Let's see what happens.
