I absolutely love this company! I came across them 3-4 years ago while doing a simple google search. After placing a few orders, I discovered not only are they fabulous with super fast shipping, they have amazing items at wonderful costs! And they are local to me!
Please Note-They do NOT have a storefront that you can leisurely shop in. It only required sending a simple email asking that one question. They responded quickly. But I am a person who would inquire about their location by sending an email or call before taking the time to drive to the location. So, if you are local, give them a call first regarding shipping and the ability to get your order in person. They do not deserve a negative review because someone didn’t take the time to contact them first. Because their customer service, on a scale of 1-10, is a 100!
Another plus is that they receive most of their items from Italy. There is no comparison for Italian made rosary parts. There are a few items they don’t have. But what they do have outweighs those few missing items. They are constantly adding to their inventory and you cannot beat their sale prices.
Hopefully soon, I will be ready to post and sell my handmade rosaries. In the meantime, I have attached photos of a rosary I recently made. The majority of parts are from Gifts Catholic.
Beads (8mm), chain links, centerpiece, Eyepins, caps and crucifix.
The only parts not from CG: Additional jump rings (this is my own unique spin for making rosaries), the larger (our father) beads which are 10mm Jade with caps purchased elsewhere and a small stamp medal (signature item for my work).
I owe my continued enthusiasm for making rosaries to Gifts Catholic. Their quality and pricing has made me love making rosaries even more! This company is worth taking a chance and ordering. I promise that you will not be disappointed!
For the record, I am an actual repeat customer and this review is my own first hand account/opinion of how this company operates. If they were not a fantastic company who cares about their customers, I would not be giving out a 5 star review with this much detail. I simply tell it like it is, which is what I’ve accomplished here.
Thank you again...
Read moreThey have many good Catholic items to offer. The big problem is that the owner of this store, named Mark, is unprofessional. When I asked why a sterling pendant that I recently purchased from them, didn't include a gift box, he just told me not to buy from this store again instead of sending an explanation. HE does not live up to their "friendly support."
If a customer sends numerous inquiries and follow ups, he considers them as complaints and will tell you to not buy from his store again. I have never requested any refund from them and there was one instance that they shipped an incorrect item to me but one of his employees was able to ship the correct one.
Although the "other employees" are WELL-MANNERED in handling customer inquiries and complaints, unfortunately, their boss is arrogant. Obviously, he did not undergo training on how to properly handle customer's concerns. Maybe, he is disdainful because it seems that he thinks he has a well-established online store and he will be forever on top. How pathetic owner...
Read moreI have purchased from them twice now and they have very low quality items. The first time I thought maybe a fluke...but the 2nd time has confirmed it. Moreover, I returned some of my purchase (I should have returned it all but felt bad) and with the shipping back and forth and what they returned to me cost as much as the items themselves. Prepare to be VERY disappointed if you order from them. The saying goes, "you get what you pay for," but at Catholic Gifts Inc, even with the "low" prices, you are...
