Customer reviews of Bonbonrama

Thank you for taking the time to let us know about your concerns. I'm sorry that this 2nd delivery didn't go as well as you'd hoped. Indeed, pallet transport, especially when it has to cross France, can be subject to certain unforeseen circumstances inherent in road transport. Your order, placed on April 15th, left immediately, as you'd wished, and arrived on the 18th. It'll be hard to get a pallet to travel 850 km any faster. As for the damaged protective cartons, it's their job to take the knocks instead of what's inside. There's no guarantee yet that the cartons carrying the confectionery will arrive as good as new. But should the goods be damaged, our customer service team will be on hand to find a satisfactory solution.

We would like to thank you for taking the time to share your opinion and your questions with us. We have noted your comments and will try to explain as best we can. We are wholesalers. We only sell in bulk packaging, and to professionals. Like all business-to-business wholesalers, we sell exclusive of VAT. The logic of the principle of VAT collection dictates that professionals should express themselves before tax. We haven't invented anything. What's more, it's clearly indicated on the home page, and before payment, that prices are exclusive of VAT. It's true that some sites express their prices as including VAT. But you've probably noticed that they're more expensive because you've chosen to order from us. That's normal, since they're aimed at private customers. On some of these sites, you can buy just 100 grams, or 1 bag of candy. For shipping costs, it's the same explanation. We're wholesalers. Our prices are low. The more you order, the heavier the goods to be shipped. Carriers charge by weight and distance. We've only asked you to make a contribution (for your parcel weighing over 23 kg, the €10.5 you've paid isn't enough to pay the carrier). We take care of a large part of this, and our contribution increases the more you order. Above a certain amount, we can take over the entire cost. Compared to other pro sites, we're pretty reasonable (our main competitor, who's no cheaper than us, offers transport for orders of 2,000 euros or more). As for your open bag of floppy, you're assuming wrong: our preparers can't take an open bag that spills out. With us, each reference is purchased in full pallets. This means they have several hundred bags at their disposal in perfect condition. If they see an open bag, they can choose another. The few bags that are torn at the depot are generally shared by the staff. On the other hand, even if a product is well-packaged and well-protected, it still suffers shocks and its contents, especially when they are "fluid" like chewing gum balls, fraizibus or floppy, for example, can move suddenly in its bag and force, from the inside, on the weld, opening it. We know it happens when a box is thrown on the floor during its journey by GLS hand between our depot and your store. But you're right, it's still our fault. We didn't know how to pack it so that it would stand up to all those shocks. Please call our sales department on 04 69 96 63 36. They will do their utmost to find a solution that might suit you.

Hello and thank you for taking the trouble to point out this difference. Manufacturers sometimes change their products without informing us. In the future, please do not hesitate to contact us by telephone if a product does not suit you or disappoints you. We will always do our utmost to find a solution that will satisfy you.

Thank you for your feedback. We are very sorry that there was a defect in the manufacture of one of the Fini Boxes. We have indeed had other similar cases on one of the models and will pass the information on to the manufacturer, Fini. In future, don't hesitate to call our customer service department. You can reach us on 04 69 96 63 36 and we'll do our best to find a solution.

Hello Mrs L. Thank you for your many comments. Here, we receive each reference from the factories in cartons, which are on pallets. So we have a lot of stock. We don't put torn bags in our parcels (torn bags are consumed by our employees' families), or erase the information printed on the back of the package (short or past best-before dates are indicated and cleared). Nor do we open the packets to leave hair in them, or to damage or deform the sweets. Indeed, we could ask Pierrot Gourmand or Fini why, in their 1.5 kg of hearts, there are a few with defects, or why some seeds have come loose from the blackberries. But we don't think you can expect candies paying less than 5 euros a kilo to be perfectly cut like a piece of goldsmith's work. So, sorry, but manufacturers, even Haribo and Lutti, slip us a few ugly candies in the packets, and we won't be able to take them back or compensate you! As for the red stains, there's a very good chance that they're red ink. As for the open bag, it could have torn during transport. In that case, we should have protected it even better so that it arrived intact. We're already trying to do this, but sometimes the transport conditions get the better of all our protection. The shocks received by the parcels explain why some outer packaging is "crumpled" and repeated rubbing erases certain ink inscriptions. Our customer service, as you kindly mentioned, is available to find a solution, in cases where Bonbonrama has its share of responsibility. Just let us know.

Thank you for sharing your opinion with us. We are sorry that the solution we proposed to compensate you did not suit you. We probably didn't understand you. When you informed us that a bag of Frazibus had torn during transport, and that 900 grams had spilled into the bottom of the box, we offered you 2 solutions: a refund for the lost goods or a credit note of higher value, which you accepted. Perhaps you were planning to deal with the incident in a different way? If so, don't hesitate to let us know, especially since, as you can see, we're easy to reach by phone and e-mail.

Hello, Thank you for letting us know that some of the pacifiers in the box were broken. We apologize for the inconvenience. Of course, as you can imagine, we didn't intentionally put broken lollipops in their original boxes. Despite the care we take to protect our confectionery, some less-than-delicate deliverers manage (rarely, fortunately for us) to get at our protections. These are the hazards of transport. However, you should know that our customer service team is on hand to find satisfactory solutions in the event of such incidents. You can reach us easily on 04 69 96 63 36 from Monday to Friday, 8.30am to midday and 2pm to 5pm.

Hello and thank you for bringing this information to our attention. Yes, there was a problem with the Caranougat Carambars. It could be a manufacturing defect, but it hasn't been reported to us yet, and it's very rare for a defect to affect only one box on a full pallet. Please contact us to explain it better. As for the open parcel, we must be careful and not accept a parcel if during transport it could have been damaged, opened or searched. GLS insures us against such incidents. Obviously, nothing was missing in your case. So much the better. In any case, if you notice any irregularity concerning the goods, transport or anything else, please call our customer service department on 04 69 96 63 36. We always try to find a satisfactory solution. Sincerely

Hello and thank you for your feedback. We're sorry for the abnormally long delay, because even with bank holidays, you should have received your parcel in 3 working days maximum, and not in 6 as was the case for you. In this festive season, even if all our orders were prepared and delivered to the carriers within the announced deadlines, the carriers did not meet their commitments. Our customer service department will contact you to offer you a credit note to apologize for this delay.

Hello and thank you for your feedback. We are very sorry about this incident. We do our best to protect our confectionery as much as possible, but sometimes the thoughtlessness of some delivery drivers gets the better of our protections. If the goods are inedible or unmarketable, simply call us and notify our customer service department on 04 69 96 63 36. It's always a good idea for us to know which bag has been opened, so that we can take greater precautions on future shipments of this product. What's more, we can offer you a compensation solution if any merchandise is lost.

Hello and thank you for your feedback. As you may have noticed, we do our best to protect our confectionery as much as possible, especially those with fragile packaging. But sometimes, in spite of our best efforts, shocks get the better of our protection. As for the fudge boxes, in view of your case, we're thinking of discontinuing parcel delivery. In any case, don't hesitate to contact us when this kind of situation arises. Our customer service team can be reached by telephone on 04 69 96 63 36. They'll be in touch with you shortly.

Hello and thank you for sharing your opinion. Indeed, we do our utmost to protect our products because, as you may unfortunately have realized, transport conditions are sometimes very harsh for our parcels. We're sorry about your open bags. If the goods are unfit for consumption or resale because of their torn packaging, please do not hesitate to contact us to find a solution. In response to your interesting comments, we have already tested paper protections and they were not effective. The cardboard boxes we use to compartmentalize our parcels are recycled cardboard boxes in which manufacturers ship their products to us. We recycle! As for the scotch tape, even paper scotch tape contains solvents. To close the cartons, which often weigh more than 20 kg, we haven't found anything better yet. But we're sensitive to the need to preserve our planet, and we're listening to your comments. We will be attentive to the most ecological packaging solutions if they enable us to remain competitive and efficient.

We apologize for the 3 packages that opened or broke in transit. As you may have noticed from the many orders you have placed with us, we take great care in packing our goods, but despite this, the sometimes brutal conditions in which they are handled can still break our protection. In such cases, please let us know so that we can find a solution if any merchandise is lost, and above all, so that we can provide even better protection next time for products with sensitive packaging.

Hello and thank you for your opinion and comment. We apologize again for this inconvenience. Our preparer did not transcribe the complete address. As you immediately informed us, as you were able to follow the shipment step by step thanks to our FLEX DELIVERY solution, we were able to modify and add the missing information. Well, in the end it was useless as you preferred to go to the GLS depot rather than wait another 24 hours. Please note that you can also change the delivery address or day yourself, thanks to the link we send you as soon as the parcel leaves our warehouses.

Hello. We're sorry that your order is missing an item. However, if you notice an error during the preparation of your order (or any other problem related to it), please contact us by e-mail or telephone. We'll get back to you and try to find a solution. But if we're not informed, there's not much we can do to try and put things right.

We apologize for the cracked display stand, which has been compensated. We try to protect as much as possible the items we ship by GLS. But sometimes, the treatment received by some boxes is such that our protections are not enough. We'll try to add more protection for our next Plexiglas display shipments. Or maybe we'll just ship them on pallets.
As for the open mushroom package, we could have the same explanation, but we didn't charge for it on your order. Either you didn't buy them from us, or the preparer made a mistake and you got them for free.

Hello and thank you for letting us know about this problem. These mini chocolates are packaged and sold in a plastic box. We cannot modify this packaging as it is the manufacturer's choice. We're sorry about this. However, we can try to protect them even better next time. If you have products that are unsaleable or consumable, please contact our customer service department on 04 69 96 63 36.

Hello, Sorry for the inconvenience. As you may have noticed when you opened our boxes, we go to great lengths to protect our products. And we're ready to redouble our efforts to ensure that our orders arrive in perfect condition 100% of the time. But sometimes, with the shocks these packages receive, it's the manufacturers' packaging that tears or cracks at the welds. In the event of such problems, please contact customer service on 04 69 96 63 36 or by e-mail at [email protected].

Thank you for your order and for your confidence in us. We understand that it may seem expensive, but you should know that we only ask for a contribution. The actual cost of transport is much higher. Since we're in the south of France, the pallet crosses the whole country, and the price is indexed to the kilometers covered. Otherwise, for Brittany, we offer transport for orders of 500 euros or more. We look forward to seeing you on our site!
