GBI ordered a suprise order of over $600… I ordered a suprise order of over $600 to be shipped to someone with $140 overnight fedex shipping. 2 days later they shipped a box of crayons in the order but not the other 12 larger items. To this day, its been 4 days of me emailing their sole contact method which is an email address and nobody responds. When you call the store, they direct you to that same email. So unless you are in NY, do NOT order online from them because they will ghost you completely.

GBThis company is basically a scam This company is basically a scam. They sell you a broken product and won’t do anything about it even with proof it was an error in production and not an error in your part. That is terrible customer service. I will be telling everyone I know not to purchase from this terrible company.

GBCHRISTMAS RUINED December the 11, I went into FAO in Rockefeller Center. I worked 3 jobs during fall and winter of 2022 to give my kids a nice Christmas. Here we are January 13, no gifts still for my children. They actually mailed a hair barrette. One hair barrette and the rest of the order is “lost.” Back and forth thru emails and long waits. I will NEVER purchase another gift here again. This was hard earned money, and I don’t have it to replace the gifts. So upset and sad at the callous way they treated me. Never again!

GBWorst buying experience ever Horrible customer service. Never order on your phone, never make any mistakes on your order, they do not let you make changes. You will get charged $15 to return goods even if you immediately asked (within minutes) to cancel your order. My first buying experience will be my last with this horrible company.

GBGreat service, received in a week and well packed. Ordered two Stevie Nicks Barbie dolls when no one else had them at retail. The retail price is $55, they had them at $60 with free shipping, so fair pricing imho. I was a little concerned by all of the negative reviews of FAO Schwarz. However, Iordered on a Friday, they loaded tracking numbers by Monday, and I got confirmation that the packages were picked up and headed to me by day 4. Got them on my porch 6 business days after ordering. They were in their Mattel shipping boxes, also packed inside outer boxes with packing pillows. They are in perfect shape! No complaints here. PS they are now out of these sold-out-everywhere dolls, but glad I got mine.
