 I have never seen another bean like this April 5, 2007

These are not the shriveled scrawny beans you find in a jar in the grocery store. They are amazing. Don't tell JR - but he isn't charging enough!!
 Very Disappointed March 14, 2007

I placed an order for these beans on March 4th. On the 14th march, I did not receive them as yet. Since the occasion that I needed them for has passed, I sent an email to JR to find out the problem. When he said they were not shipped as yet, I send 2 e-mails requesting cancellation-i sent 2 to make sure they got it and stopped the mailing of my item!
He responded VERY hastily, as used sarcastic comments in his reply.The tone of his reply made me feel as if I did not know anything!!
I am very disappointed with this whole ordeal!!

These beans were really fresh and lower cost than other suppliers. The beans were shipped free and promptly.
 Not the highest quality, but still a great deal February 27, 2007

I bought seven beans for seven dollars, and was a bit unimpressed with the aromatic quality. They didn't have that strong complex aroma right out of the bag that bourbon beans are known for. That is not to say that the inside of the bean isn't aromatic. After all, it's the guts that really count. Even though these beans don't seem to be as aromatic as other beans, this is still a KILLER DEAL!!! I recently purchased one bean from a popular brand "Spice Islands" for seven dollars. An unbelievably aromatic bean, but seven times the cost of these beans!?!?!? I think I'll just buy these and use twice as many as the higher quality beans. I'm still making away like a bandit!

First off, top notch customer service- there's a personal touch that's rarely seen in on-line purchasing! Please keep it up!
Now for the goods: These vanilla beans are a fantastic value. Seriously, I wasn't expecting much- I was hopeful given the other reviews- but I've learned some hard lessons to not expect such high standards of quality- especially when it comes to gourmand items- These beans are even superior to those I can get from my local provider (at three times the cost, mind you.) I've even ordered online from two other sources (one recommended by Martha Stewart, lol)- and these beans are plumper and more supple than those other pricier providers. (Plump and supple- always a good thing.)
If you're on the fence- I urge you to go for it. You owe it to your recipes to use quality indredients. You will not be disappointed. I know I'm not.
Thank you kindly!
