I'm in love. Martie has pretty much anything you can find in your local grocery store, barring the produce and frozen sections. They have an awesome mission coupled with a steep discount--it doesn't get much better.

Feedback

My one gripe is that it’s hard for me to make Martie my one-stop shop, and I prefer to shop from a smaller number of grocery stores than pinballing between a bunch. Martie’s mission also gives way to an inventory that’s very dynamic, so it’s hard to count on any one thing being in stock for a reasonable amount of time.

I’ve done two Martie orders. No real issues except one item came broken. It was only $4 so I didn’t bother contacting their support. If you like thingtesting, you should like them since it’s where you can find most of the buzzy products you see on instagram but for a more reasonable price. Most of the items I’ve seen or gotten actually expire in a long time so I don’t have to worry about eating them too quickly surprisingly. Besides that, it’s been kind of a weird experience for me due to the nature of the concept of the site. Since it is limited qualities, things can sell out at any point, as well as new things being added. So I’ll put some things in my cart that sound interesting but not be ready to order yet and then things will sell out and I’ll ask myself, do I really want to go ahead with the order with what’s left? Then even though I was logged in, my entire cart got deleted and I gave up. So now I am waiting for some things to be added that I absolutely want and then I’ll browse the rest of the site.

2 things: 1. nutrition info is really important to me. Some of the pics of labels are poor quality and I cannot read them. Separate text info would be better. 2. I wish I could sign up to be notified when you get certain products back in stock.

It's always exciting to see a brand like this open since I do consider myself a cheapskate and will try to get a deal whenever possible. The thought that markets just normally throw out totally good food that is close to its sell by date without trying to sell it for cheaper makes me kind of frustrated. So as soon as Martie launched I jumped on the opportunity to get a box, and I was lucky enough that it was always available in my area. The selection of goods in the shop is always pretty good, though I definitely had to search the entire shop to find enough items to buy to meet the cost required to allow a box to be shipped. With that said, the deals are great and I have tried out so many new brands because the price is now much more to my liking than buying the same brand for full price. Plus, it seems like every day they pick an item to be on sale for only 1 cent! Can't get much better than that.

Feedback

Consider creating boxes that are different sizes so the groceries don't always have to come in this huge box when it is not needed.

Ten days later no sign of my order. I received no confirmation and the site is attached to an app called shop.com that you have to download to track your order. They don't send you a tracking number and the site is not user friendly just signing in is a big hassle. Customer service rep took forever to answer the phone when I finally got through they promised my order would go out that day or the next it did not go out for 3 days after that. They sell products that are close to expiration thats how they do it so cheaply. Which means because they are mostly natural foods without artificial preservatives, they are stale. All the foods offered are [processed with tons of salt and sugar. They have daily specials but they limit the quantity to one. Pet food is the same price as the grocery store.

Feedback

Fix your website and made tracking orders easier by sending a tracking number. Be truthful about delivery dates and divorce yourself from shop.com

I’m not happy at all how is this company supposed to retain loyal customers and try new products with their no return policies we bought some items like the gem daily essentials and they taste awful (its crap) it’s a horrible product I will never buy from this company again and I will warn people not to buy any new products from them that you are not familiar with they will simply tell you sorry no refunds that is heck of a policy for any company that wants to survive in this competitive business

Feedback

You could improve your customer service and change your return polices how can people try new products when you send them crap and they say no refunds sorry you are scamming people I would give you a minus one rating if I could thank you have nice day
