    I had a terrible experience at this store. My son suddenly felt very sick while we were shopping, and I politely asked if he could use the restroom. Unfortunately, I was told that the bathroom was not available to the public, even though we were actively making a purchase and this was clearly an emergency. They said they asked the manager, but she still refused to allow us to use it. I find this lack of empathy and basic human decency unacceptable. For a store of this size, not having a public restroom; especially in emergency situations, should be illegal. I do not recommend this store and will not be returning (I-10 location).

    100% AWESOME customer service! I called the Seaside California store at 5 minutes before closing time last night, and Ben was absolutely wonderful. He answered all my questions, and assured me that my order would be ready for pickup this morning! They had my Solgar Extra Strength Glucosamine Chondroitin vitamins where no one else did. And the price was very reasonable. I love that I earned rewards, too! I hope you are paying Ben enough. He is a fabulous asset to your store and to the company!😉!

      BAIT-N-SWITCH IS ILLEGAL. ALL MY PAPERWORK SHOWS I ORDERED 60 PODS X 2 BUT WAS ONLY SENT 10 PODS X 2. VitaShoppe sold Bareorganics daily defense coffee pods on Amazon. I ordered 2 x 60ct. Everything said 60ct, even the packing slip. However, I only received 2x10 ct. I complained to Amazon and they said I needed to contact VitaShoppe for the missing pods. VitaShoppe rep was not cooperative at all. They told me to send the 2 boxes back for a refund. I did not, explaining to them they owed me 100 pods. They refused. I told them BAIT-N-SWITCH is illegal.

      They refused to send me the rest of the pods. The same thing happened to my friends and family - I am not the only one they did this to. I'm here to tell you that when VitaShoppe performs BAIT-N-SWITCH illegal acts, I filed complaint with Amazon and they said the issue resided with VitaShoppe. You need to cut ties with this crooked and illegal company. BAIT-N-SWITCH IS ILLEGAL.

      Today I had a great experience with Daneal in your Valley Stream Green Acres location. She was kind and patient in helping me find everything I wanted and even had some helpful suggestions for my health. I spent over 500 dollars! You guys need more employees that are dedicated to their customer service as such.

      I used to love them. However I was having a problem getting a product. Kept being told lies. Then I got a call months ago from someone in corporate. I was shocked. Unfortunately my phone never rang. She left a voice mail to call her back. I left probably 10 messages over several months. I gave up. She never called back. They are losing my business. Customer service is very important and that's why I'm given them a 1. There are MANY other good places but I really liked them. What happened to you all. So sad.

      I have been shopping online and to pick up in store for a few months now. Every time the manager, Tucker, is on duty that day, I have had a negative experience. All other staff is exceptional. Yesterday I ordered online at 9:00 am. Got off work at 4:00 pm and walked into store to find Tucker standing at the counter looking at his tablet. There was a customer in the store, my ordered was not pulled after 7 hrs and I had to go pull the order myself off the shelf. This is the second time I had to do his job. He never has a smile. He should not be able to be a manager. I will never shop in this store again because of him. It’s a shame the caliber of people that are being employed now. Perhaps his superior should have trained him in customer service to a far better degree. Very displeased with Tucker.

      It took several minutes for anyone to answer the phone today 12/26/2024. I called looking for Plnt brand Turkey Tail mushroom capsules. The female who answered the phone said without hesitation "I'm not familiar with the brand so we must be out of stock". I drove there and saw that they have it in stock. This is not the first time that the employees of the Rochester, NY store located in Pittsford acted sullenly and unwillingly. I suggest the corporate office should either fire these people or give them a seminar on customer relations. It's NOT a pleasant experience going to this store.

      Stay away from this company's products. Bought a defective supplement and company could care less if it's poisonous or not. Manager as well as corporate manager should be fired!!!! Other reason why they changed their return policy to 30 days because people are finding out that 80% of their products are either poison or don't work at all. Horrible business!!!! There's your warning!!!@

      I receive auto-ships for a supplement for my daughter. Somehow, the company messed up and did not have my apartment number in the auto-ship section of their system. Apparently, there is more than one place in their system where they keep your Address. The last time I was not able to retrieve my package in any sort of reasonable amount of time. Because the driver did not know where to take it since it did not have my apartment number on it. He ended up dropping it off at the clubhouse which was closed, and the product sat outside for days, and I received it very late when I got the call that it was at the clubhouse where I had to drive and get it.

      I made a phone call to Vitamin Shoppe yesterday when I got an email that stated that my next shipment was going out and I realized the apartment number was not included and that that must be what had happened last time. They informed me that they would send me out another expedited Order, but I had to wait until I had a tracking number for the first order So they could try to reroute it. I called back later With the tracking number and spoke to another representative who saw the notes in the system But for some reason, was not going to expedite the next shipment. The first representative decided to do this because first of all it was their error and secondly, Because my daughter needs the supplement for her constipation issues And The package would not have arrived on time.

      I clarified with the second representative that the first representative told me the order would be expedited. She double-checked the notes. Saw that this was correct and said that she would expedite it. I get my tracking number today for the new order, and they did not expedite it, and it's not going to arrive for a week. We will have run out of the product by that time. So now I have to make a third phone call about their mistake. Telling another representative, everything that happened and all she was able to do was give me an eight-dollar credit Per her manager.

      Does anybody think that after having to make three phone calls and not getting my product in time and them not actually resolving anything that an eight-dollar credit is what I was looking for??? Do you think that an hour of my time on the phone with three different representatives over two days because of their multiple mistakes is worth me getting eight dollars? Terrible Company policy.

      I called this morning about my TMG I ordered with other vitamins. The TMG looked old and they were leaking. They are sending me out a new bottle so my problem has been resolved.

      Original Review: Aug. 11, 2024

      The site and ordering was easy since I had a list of what I was ordering. Sadly the TMG looks like old stock or definitely not kept in a cool dry place. As you can see in the pictures. They look old and leaking. I will call but now how can I trust this company. I can get this stuff off of Amazon. Someone recommended your company but I think I'll stick with Amazon. Especially now how I see you have such bad reviews and low score. I think I should be refunded my money. Because I'm going to throw them all into trash. $80 down the drain. Thanks a lot.
