    I spent 56.00 on stale candy. Boxes of some items were not sealed properly they were open. All the bubble gum was so hard my kids had to spit it out there couldn’t chew them. I contacted the company they want me to bare the expense to send it back rather then sending me a label which in this case they should provide since they knowingly sent out port quality items.

    Rip OFF. Refused to stand behind there product. I ordered 7 dozen candy canes (84) - 82 where broken. I have never had that many broken in an order from anybody. I think they where shipped broken. I purchased shipping insurance - SCAM - it meant nothing. They claim you have only 2 weeks to file a claim after your order was delivered. I received my order the 16th of November - they where closed over Thanksgiving, Called the week of 5th. Seems to me 2 weeks was pretty close. I have yet to see where there is a statement that you have 2 weeks to make a claim. It's not when you order, or on your packing slip, or on the selection page for the product, or with the cart. Really don't know how I was suppose to know... They would not replace or refund my money. I feel totally ripped off! The shipping insurance is a joke, must be their slush fund.

    Hi... It states in our terms and conditions that you must contact us within two weeks. https://www.oldtimecandy.com/pages/terms-and-conditions. We were closed thanksgiving, but were open friday and saturday of that week. Regardless, I have refunded your account in full.

    I am a consumer.....why would look under "terms and conditions" for such a restriction? That is my point to the complaint... you don't have any referral during the selection, in the cart for purchase nor packing slip that states any "terms and conditions" Its just a rip off. I will never buy from you again. I have bought thousands of products over the years and have never read any "terms and conditions" before purchasing. Any return restriction on return were clearly explained during the purchasing process, I didn't have to go look for it! And I don't know what your "industry standards" are as the phone call I made tried to pass it of on.... It really is a shame to me that 82 out 84 candy canes where broken, package by someone who ships candy every day and you don't have the integrity to stand behind your product. And you don't even care or know how they where packaged, that question was never asked.
