GBMy first order and most likely my last one I made my first order a week ago. I spent over $100 for a statue they claimed was "in stock" on their website. Got my email confirmation, so I thought I would get my tracking info soon. Their website says they ship within 1-3 business days, so I waited. Three business days passed by, and I still haven't received my tracking info. And today (a week after I first placed my order), they sent me an email saying that my order "was canceled because we did not have enough stock to fulfill your order". WTH??? Why would you write "in stock" on your website when there isn't anything in the first place??? To make this worse, this was a limited edition statue, so it's either sold out or more expensive on other sites. Great, now I have to find another site and spend more than I want to get the statue. It's very unfortunate that my first order from them will probably be my last one. I know they don't care if they lose one or a few customers, but please shop elsewhere for toys. If you really want FAO Schwarz toys, please find them at Target or some other retailer—these shops usually sell these toys cheaper than the official FAO Schwarz online store. Also, FAO Schwarz, please update your website accurately, so it reflects your actual inventory. If an order needs to be canceled, please alert the customer early (within 1-3 business days) because some customers are impatient or need to know if they need to find an alternate option as soon as possible.

GBOvercharged and ripped off. Overcharged and ripped off. Purchased an item at $31 99 Discovered later it was retailed at $19.99 elsewhere. The company refused to accept a return. Shocking service.

GBSo well made I got a stuffed husky for my birthday, he is really well made, he always sits upright, but is still really fluffy and soft. I bring him everywhere and always have loved him. When I look on the website, I see so many great stuffed animals.

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!

AUStill not shipped after 7 days and no reply to emails. I bought several items from their online website 7 days ago now and they still have not been shipped despite promising delivery in 3-7 days! However, they charged my credit card 2 days after purchase. I have contacted them now twice by email and 2 days later have still not heard back about why my order has not shipped. At this point I am not going to get them by Christmas as I need to forward them onto Australia and would like to just cancel the order. Over it!!!! Absolutely appalling service.
