"I have purchased from iHerb many times over the last several years, and never had a single problem. To the contrary, their service has been impeccable, and their shipping as prompt as it gets. In fact, they've invariably sent my orders by Priority Mail when I've selected only their "Best Value" shipping.

Don't be put off by the graphically-challenged nature of their website. Their site looks pretty amateurish, but their service and selection are top notch. And while, unlike in the past, their prices may not now be the lowest on the net, I still usually end up getting the best deal from them overall, when factoring in discount coupon codes and their free shipping on orders over $40. Highly recommended, with a small town touch, and run by people who genuinely care about customer satisfaction.

"This was my first purchase from iHerb.com. Prices were very good, and shipping rates seemed resonable, so I took a chance. The site was easy to use, and setting up a new account was easy as well.

I placed my order in the wee hours on Monday morn, and received a confirmation email promptly, followed later that day by a second one with a tracking number.

And today Wednesday, my order arrived! From CA to DE in three days, now that's service! As I see it, they exceeded my expectaions, so I will be placing repeat orders, and telling my family and friends too.

"I don't usually write reviews on retailers because most of my purchases go all right. In fact, this is my first review of a retailer. I routinely buy things online from retailers such as amazon.com, newegg, etc., and have never had any bad experience with them and yet don't review them because they are good but not so exceptional. OK, I hear newegg has great service, but I did not need to use it.

I was in search of an air purifier, and iherb.com had the best price on the model I was looking for. I was a bit skeptical about the site since I had never heard about them before, and so I checked them out on resellerratings.com. They had a few excellent reviews, so I decided to take the plunge. Ordered the air purifier on a Thursday and took advantage of their free shipping offer. The item shipped on the next day via Fedex Overnight! I was expecting it to be shipped a slower and cheaper shipping method so I was pleasantly surprised. Item was delivered on Monday, and while in the process of setting it up, I noticed a crack on the front panel. The Fedex guy must have banged it pretty hard since it was packaged pretty well. The crack didn't seem to hinder its operation, but it was a little disappointing to received a defective product. I contacted iherb.com immediately to let them know about the problem, and they were more than happy to fix the problem. I could either have it replaced or I could keep it and they would credit me $50 for the problem. Since it was not hindering its operation, I opted for the second choice and they promptly credited my card.

Overall, my experience with iherb.com was outstanding. They had the best price on the item I was looking to buy, shipped out the product promptly, and they have an excellent customer service. I strongly recommend this vendor.

"Repeat buyer of ???? times. I lost count. This place has just about everything one can imagine and offer great discounts for large volume buyers. Definitely a major threat for the overpriced GNC and Vitamin World."

"iHerb has been a pleasure to deal with. Their prices are low, they provide Live online help, their shipping is speedy, and they have the products (herbs and supplements) I usually need.

I can not recommend this company highly enough. They could easily be a model for any web-based business!

"I've ordered from iHerb 4 times now. The prices are excellent (and return customers get a 6% discount... pay attention to the coupon codes during checkout) and shipping is free if you spend over $60. The orders are prepared and sent quickly, and are nicely packaged. The "Monthly Specials" section has free items: I've gotten a pill cutter/crusher, memory pills, and spiced tea for free. No complaints..."

"Amazing! Prices were best I've seen anywhere, and the shipping was not only cheap (especially for Hawai`i), but was fast--it arrived w/i 3 business DAYS! Most items to HI take 6-8 WEEKS!

Also, each bottle was INDIVIDUALLY bubble-wrapped. It was the minimum amount of bubble-wrap to make the package secure, so that not only did each and every glass bottle arrive in perfect condition, but we weren't worried that the company was using yards and yards of unrecyclable material (and charging us for it, like a lot of other companies).

We were also happy with the website, because it lists the estimated expiration date for each item. That allowed us to purchase volume without worrying about products expiring, so we could take advantage of a larger discount. The categories were easy to find, and the pictures loaded quickly, even with our dial-up service.

The confirmation e-mail includes a toll-free telephone number, which is a refreshing change--many e-businesses will only offer an e-mail address for customer service issues. The links to the order status page is reliable, and the order reference number is built right into the e-mail subject line--very easy to reference!

iHerb was quick, high-quality, and had great value. Each item was as advertised (no sneaky putting other labels on bottles), and the customer service side of it was great. No overcharging, and prompt follow-up via e-mail.

We'd shop with them again in a heartbeat (and have just placed another order tonight). Hands down, iHerb has the best deals, and that's even with our military discounts and belonging to several "warehouse" clubs!

"iHerb.com's prices on the items I ordered were fantastic!

Order shipped the very next day and they even sent more than I ordered (in the form of a very nice gift)!

I will definitely order again from iHerb.com in the near future!
