vanillin is NOT vanilla… I am especially fond of the amazing walnut bars but for crying out loud if you’re going to charge $17 for eight pieces of candy don’t give us artificial flavor like vanillin- pony up for the vanilla for God sakes otherwise you’re just making us suckers. I’m so angry since I discovered this, that I have a very poor opinion of Sees now.

Pricey / Rude I don't really eat candy anymore, but when I do its See's. I am so disappointed in the company. I know prices are going up but $32 a pound?!! This is almost rare gem prices. I only eat a few varieties that they sell. I wish I could count on not being robbed for a few pieces of delicious candy. Mostly, I have had a good experience with the quality. There have only been a couple of times when the candy tasted a little stale. I went to the downtown San Francisco location to get what little I could afford and a very rude woman with ratty, multi-colored hair "helped me". I have never had such an unpleasant experience at any other location in the 40 years I have indulged in this company. Please get these prices and the weird looking/acting employees in order or I will have to give you up.

See’s candy WAS the best chocolate ever… See’s candy WAS the best chocolate ever especially for the price, hand picked and wrapped. Now at $32 a pound, chocolates are mostly fillings with a thin coat of what dies nort seem to be Guittard chocolate anymore! Very disappointing with this stellar institution going just for profits. Will buy hershey’ s in a bag from now on for a fourth if the price. Sad reviewer here. Been eating See’s for over 50 years.

UPDATE No response at all from Customer Service UPDATE - AFTER READING THIS REVIEW SEE'S CONTACTED ME AND REFUNDED MY PAYMENT! Ordered a 2023 Christmas present which they said would be delivered December 18 to the 22nd, but it did not leave See's until the 17th! There is NO WAY a package could get from the West Coast to FLORIDA on time if shipped that late, and of course it did not. It arrived after Christmas, after my relatives left for vacation. Worse, I tried contacting See's THREE TIMES through email and the online contact form and they never answered. I said I wanted my money back if it was delivered after Christmas. Note - UPS said it was NOT UPS's fault - there were no delays, weather issues ec. They said See's simply shipped too late. I still want a refund, but dead silence from See's. So sad - I order from them every year but do not see how I can do it again.

Expedited shipping? We’ll SEE…not. I paid for expedited shipping, but order hasn’t even arrived as promised. What a hassle to even contact See’s to check on status. Then, when I left a message, the response was “we can’t promise a response to your concerns”. Well, I can promise that this is the last time I’m ordering and will not recommend to others.
