Awful business practices.

Webstaurant seems VERY scammy to me.
I placed an order and got an estimated ship date of almost a week and a half after I ordered it. Yesterday I got an email that it MIGHT ship a month after ordering.
I assume this is because they are a ChiCom company and ship directly from China.
I find this to be unacceptable, and so did my client, who has since canceled their order because of the lack of timeliness and professionalism on the part of Webstaurant.
What makes them seem really scammy to me is that they can't (won't) cancel and refund my order, despite it not having shipped, and won't ship for at least a month, then figure another month to get to me from China, lied and said the "manufacturer has to cancel."
Sorry, but if they can't ship it then they should refund and cancel my order and sit on the product until someone else buys it, not punish the customer for their incompetence.
I can say with complete certainty that I will NEVER buy from Webstaurant again.

Hi Gary, I apologize for the issues you had with your order and understand your frustration, I'm glad to see that your order has been canceled. I have shared your review with the proper department so we can further into these issues. All our Distribution Centers are located in the United States but we do occasionally have products that ship directly from the manufacturer. Because this item ships directly from the manufacturer, we cannot guarantee stock availability or lead time, which is stated on the product page. Please reach out to our Customer Solutions team if we can answer any further questions.

Great selection, fast shipping … I’m a Restaurant Depot regular, but have found higher quality products at Webstaurant and the Plus membership is a definite. Very impressed with Mercer cutlery and the selection of SS cookware.

Gouging of shipping costs negate good item prices

While the pricing has always been good at Webstaurant I'm recently finding more and more often that their shipping costs push the items I'm buying into the "more expensive than other places" category. The offered "plus" shipping program isn't cost efficient for me at $99 per month so thats not helpful. Today adding 2 $8.99 brushes (not heavy) to my cart jumped my shipping up $16.85. That meant that instead of paying $8.99 per brush it was actually $17.32 per brush. I can get them virtually anywhere for less than that price so I removed them from my cart and purchased elsewhere. They say they charge by weight but a plastic waffle fork that's about 8" long and listed as shipping weight of 1 lb added $19.48 shipping to my total. Crazy! I get that shipping costs cant be eliminated but they shouldnt be greatly inflated either.

Hi Tracey, thank you for taking the time to leave a review. As a wholesale website, we do not build our shipping and any applicable handling costs into our prices. Instead, we charge the full shipping and handling cost for each order. Typically, the more you purchase at one time, the better your shipping cost will be per item. It is also more cost-effective to ship to a business, as shipping rates are lower to commercial addresses.

Hi Hal, as a wholesale website, we do not include any of the shipping charges in the cost of the items. Therefore, we do have to charge shipping for each of our orders and we do not have any general shipping discounts.

Most of the items we sell on our site are eligible for Free or Discounted Shipping with an active Plus subscription. Check it out here: https://www.webstaurantstore.com/plus/

Payment not processing

It took two days for the order to go through. The payment portal kept stating that it could not process the payment and that I needed to use anothher form of payment. I tried 5 different payment card and it said the same. I did a live chat and the representative could not help me. She kept saying that she did not see any problem on her end. Now, my order will be received late because I could not get it processed on time due to my payment not being able to be processed. Tonight, the same card that I had been originally using was magically processed.
