There is such a huge market for services targeted at NRIs that I’m surprised that there are so few of them (well few good ones at least) out there. So far I’ve tried atleast 3 distinct services for delivering flowers and gifts in India, and had bad experiences with both of them at one point of time or another.
The first, India Gift House seemed really nice for a while—my first few orders were delivered on time, no delays, no complains and lightning fast feedback. However, the last 2-3 orders have been disasters, getting delayed not by hours but by days. Feedback has slowed down and customer support seems to be unresponsive.
The other was Indiaonlineflorists.com I think, and they were late by half a day. But their website truly sucks, and I don’t trust their credit card processing. I’m just glad they delivered, even if late.
So I’m scouting again for a name I can trust. Why don’t rediff or indiatimes or some other such big names launch servies like these?
UPDATE: Well both rediff and indiatimes do have similar services, but they are either expensive or not as comprehensive as the competition. Right now, I would recommend either India Gift House, or indiangiftsportal.com
