Harry London chocolates

I've been keeping an eye out for Harry London Christmas tins. I have searched the Q, no listing for Harry Londons. Are they no longer with QVC?

Another poster said the Harry London people said to watch the Friday after Thanksgiving. I'm hoping for an assortment as in previous years.

It is odd to me that they aren't here for CIJ. But it has been mentioned that they said to watch for something later in the season.

I wish I knew why they aren't here now. Wonder if interest in/sales of their products are down, and Q is holding back to generate more interest in them coming back, or if there are some kind of production or supply issues.

@Mominohio, could it be that people order in July for a December delivery date, and cancel before the shipping date? I've done that and now I feel guilty. Blame me!

Harry London was sold, right now the chocolates aren't available on the Q but think they will be later this year.

Mine came half melted one year and I was able to get a full refund. I have to wonder if that happens a lot, and that the cost of lost product is making it not profitable for either HL or QVC.

Maybe because of the sale both parties need to negotiate new contract? Could be part of it.

@De Anna - If you search "Harry London" in the Community here, you'll find a few recent threads explaining that HL has been bought by Ferrero Rocher and isn't currently being sold in very many places at all as they're sorting things out. One of our friends in the forums reached out directly to the company to ask about sales on QVC and received the response referenced in this thread about watching for HL around Thanksgiving.

I grew up in Canton Ohio and grew up on Harry London chocolates when I move to New Orleans I was so happy that I was able to order them from QVC so I am sad that they are not available as of right now. Harry London has been sold three times in the last 15 years the last sale being mid 2017 which means they were selling on QVC last December so not sure what is going on and when you call QVC they don't have any idea or they're just not saying it's very frustrating I want my Harry London's LOL

I read that their factoy where they make their chocolates caught fire last year. They were able to fulfill some of the orders but not all.

Last night David made a goof and instead of saying Harry and David for the TSV, he called them Harry London. He then said that Harry London would return later in the year with a TSV - yay! Probably with some cute tins that I won't be able to live without... !

Yes, they did hint on their FB page that they would be back later in the fall.

And those tins! Oh my. They hook me every time. I buy for the tins not so much the candy! LOL

Many years ago this use to be excellent candy, but as the years went on it just got worse and worse with no taste. I have stopped buying it and I think maybe that is what other QVC customers are doing.
