why did I not realize that trying to order a gift of chocolate online would be exactly as full of bait-and-switch drop-shipping scams as ordering flowers is

it's exactly the same scam, to the point that it was literally 1-800-FLOWERS that called to say they wouldn't be able to fulfill the order

they were trying to get me to accept a substitution of boring Godiva milk chocolate two weeks late

anyone got any recommendations for a chocolate-sending company that actually stocks chocolate?

@arborelia I think this may be one of the things where your best bet is to look for a place local to where you're sending to. Which is annoying and homework-y, but would end up both cheaper and more reliable.

@arborelia
esther price
friesinger's chocolates
bellbrook chocolates

all local that do shipping

buckeye chocolates is up near cleveland but also do shipping too
