I was really disappointed with my order. The laptop case arrived without the correct monogram and wasn’t gift wrapped as requested, and the passport holder and luggage tag had no monogram at all. For the price, I expected premium quality and attention to detail, but the products didn’t match what was advertised. I have contacted the company to… Read more
request a refund. I had planned to buy more gifts from this store, but after this experience I won’t be ordering again.
Dreadful customer service – I have spent hundreds of dollars with Gifts Australia & Hamper Emporium over the last few years as I am in the US & my extended family is in Aus. Previously I left a 5 star review, which I would now like to change to ONE star! Package was inadvertently mis-addressed & not able to change delivery as it shows my american address. Why did someone at… Read more
Gifts Australia not notice this? There has been no customer support whatsoever & after talking to a team member I was basically told it was my problem. I don't deal with companies like this & will be looking at independent sellers from now on.

Ordered most of my xmas shopping – Happy with the gifts received and they were nicely wrapped. Xmas ribbon was so nice Show reply
Ugly cheap presentation and expensive. Run don't walk to anyone else – Paid $130 and received absolute garbage presentation. Items were thrown in a shabby cardboard box. Shameful. Just heard from them. Nonsense. drivel about oh so sorry didn't meet your expectations. Really?? Whose expectations would be met by such a miserable (expensive) presentation? See photo below.

Order at your own risk! – Still awaiting on an expensive Fathers Day gift ordered on 29 Aug. I made a change to delivery address shortly after placing my order. I even sent a personal email informing them. There was no response for couple days and when they did ultimately respond, they said they can’t ‘promise’ the delivery would be made to the corrected address. A lot… Read more
of back and forth and few days later, the item sent to us was not what we ordered! (A carafe set instead of the Light Globe I ordered)
It gets worse… When I informed them of this, they said they will send the correct item but it got sent to the wrong address!
I have yet to receive this item and it’s been an exhausting process from start to finish!
Needless to say I will never order from them again!

Dirty, scratched, old and used gift – I am a regular customer of Gifts Australia - for several years I have been sending gifts for my son and six-year-old grandson twice a year. Everything has been fine so far. On November 19, 2021, I sent an order for gifts. One of them was NASA Interactive Robot Astronaut. This gift was unwrapped by the grandson on January 1, 2022 and it turned out… Read more
that we had been scammed by Gifts Australia. Not only was the gift not new (dirty, scratched, with all the glass scratched). You can see it has been used by someone for several months. Moreover - a male voice and children in the background are recorded. This dishonesty affects me a lot. Gifts Australia has failed my confidence. My grandson was the saddest. He was very excited and hoped to have fun. Got an old thing that he doesn't want to play with

Loving the CHRISSIE CAKE – Loving it, moist, nicely sliced, hey had to put in the fridge this hot weather. I'll be ordering once more next Christmas love ❤ Rosemary x Show reply
Most pleasant surprise – The courier arrived, we were adamant that we weren’t expecting anything. Such a surprise when we saw the beautiful hamper he presented, organised by our daughter & partner from Mexico City. Made our day, thank you. Show reply
Great site. So much to choose from – I have used this site for various gifts from Mothers Day, birthdays, thank yous, births and special holidays. I’ve always managed to find the perfect gift for everyone and the recipients have loved their gifts. Site is easy to navigate from selection through to payment. Delivery expectation and arrival exceptional as I’m always notified along with the receiver if known by Gift Australia. Show details · 1

Thank you for your feedback, Nifty. To assist you… Read more
Do not order – Unfortunately pre-ordered a Mother’s Day present, as recommended by the marketing email. Selected the 12/05 as they could not deliver cold items on the Sunday, but the company has decided to deliver it immediately. There is lack of support from customer service (the “chat” function is actually emails backwards and forwards) and now I will have to order from another company an actual present to arrive for Mother’s Day. Really frustrating.
Clare, we are sorry to hear that your experience… Read more

Birthday gifts – My son and his wife and their two girls emigrated to Australia some eight years ago, leaving Adrian’s mother and father in England. Adrian’s mother sadly passed away five years ago and I visited them four years ago. I am too old to make the long journey to visit again so it is good to know of a company such as yours who can be relied upon to fulfil the family ties at Christmas and other times of celebration Show reply

Non delivery of order – An order was made and paid for on 11 December 2022 for two hampers to be delivered to the same address. One reached the recipient in time for Xmas, the other hasn't. I've contacted Australia Post about the missing item who told me to contact the sender i.e., Gifts Australia as any query should come from them. I've lodged a query with Gifts… Read more
Australia who told me to contact Australia Post... As far as I understand the contractual arrangement that I entered into with Gifts Australia was for the hamper to be delivered in a timely manner. It is therefore the responsibility and obligation of Gifts Australia to deliver the product, and if the hamper has gone astray to send a replacement.

Terrible!! Beware! – Bought some Xmas presents for my kids. Most of the stuff was a rip off but purchasing was my decision and I was happy to live with that. I tried to return a towel that my daughter didn’t like. Says on website you can return for refund, exchange or store credit. I returned the towel and was given store credit even though I asked for a refund. There… Read more
is no way to contact them now, they are uncontactable via phone and do not reply to emails. There is zero reason to shop here, heaps of places to get the same but better products. Pretty website but probably just a junk overseas company with no customer service available at all - non existent.

Not worth it – I received my order after over two months of waiting and no follow up. The order was late and on arrival could see the product was not in good order and had areas of colouring missing. This is incredibly disappointing and the customer service was terrible. Will never order from this company again.

Uncontactable, unresponsive and now no Christmas gifts for my family – I ordered all my kids family Christmas gifts on 22 November, being told they were dispatched the same day. It’s now five weeks later and Australia post have not received the package for delivery, gifts Australia are not taking phone calls, and still have not responded to my online query. With three working days until Xmas I am now left with no Xmas gifts for the kids in my extended family. I will never order from them again. Show details

Do they wait until you can't cancel payment through PayPal before not delivering – Ordered 2 hampers totalling close to $300 early last week using my PayPal. Was quite excited that within 3 days (Paypals cut off) I received notification I would be receiving the cheese and chocolate hampers the following day through their delivery company HDS waited all day, received notification I would be receiving said hampers at 2:45pm.… Read more
2:45pm arrived and the tracker said "Delayed" that was ok... checked at 3:30 same response than 4pm, than 4:30pm, than 5pm when I noticed on the tracker at message at 4:45pm "your delivery was unable to be delivered" I tried to contact them to no avail. I can assure you as I am sitting here in my office as I was then, there was NO attempt at delivery I even checked all our cameras, front door and warehouse etc. Came past the office saturday, nothing, have contacted Gifts Australia via email, generic response. Cant cancel PayPal as cancellation date has passed. I am also concerned as the 2 hampers contain selection of cheeses where they have been stored since last Friday? Today is Monday and yet again nothing. BTW I did check reviews for this company before ordering and they 'appeared' positive.

Great gifting ideas – Very Happy with my xmas purchase, website is very easy to navigate and shipping was very quick, will definitely be coming back in the future Show reply
Fantastic Online Gift Service! – I have placed two online orders in the past two weeks. A great variety to suit all budgets. Online ordering is quick and easy. Both orders were delivered on the day or a day earlier and arrived in perfect condition. Both recipients were surprised and thoroughly enjoyed their gifts Show reply

Hotline always unavailable. Never reply emails – Bought a Christmas Hamper gift for a client company and paid for express delivery the next day however, the item has been returned to sender. Have been trying to call Gifts Australia at least 10 times and every time it says unavailable. Sent at least 5 emails and so far haven't heard back the last 5 days. This is un-professional and bad service. Show details
