I am interested in the talc free powders. It seems they sell all kinds of products. Have you shopped there? What do you think about it?

I've purchased nightware and some bedding and been very satisfied. It is a solid company.

I have purchased nightgowns and pajamas there and some kitchen items. Excellent quality items, some of which you can't get anywhere else that I'm aware of.

Both my brother and I have shopped there frequently.

They have stuff you just can't find anywhere else!

Love shopping their catalogue. I have found many things I love.

Their summery nightgowns are wonderful.

I trust the company.

I’ve ordered from them with no problems. Great customer service too.

One winter I ordered several jugs of ice melts. One of the tops came loose and spilled the contents. They replaced it free of charge and I did not have to return the bad jug.

I've shopped there often and their products while a little pricey are good quality. I bought the "original" Raggedy Ann and Andy dolls for my grandchildren, a beautiful wrist watch from the Jackie Kennedy collection and many other items. I like that some products are hard to find anywhere else -- like the Garibaldi biscuits, thin crust cookies/biscuits with a raisin filling. They used to be made for the US market by Sunbeam and then disappeared. I love them. The Vermont Country Store sells them from the UK. Only drawback, they have to be ordered in a substantial quantity. But when I crave them I know where to find them. Also French Cremes candy which has also disappeared fro store shelves.

I've never been disappointed in any clothing items I've bought. Very well made. A lot of items are in cotton, too.which is getting harder to find.

Try them I think you'll be pleased. Also I love their catalogs especially the Christmas one.

I shop with them frequently. I purchase their Eileen West nightgowns and robes. In addition I have bought an occasional blouse. I had one on today matter of fact.

They are a trustworthy company and aim to please. Watch for the Free Shipping.

I ordered a fleece bed jacket because the length of a robe was too warm for me in the winter. It's very nice, however, their SH is very high. Owned by two brothers.

My dear mother used to shop a bit from them with great success. My sister and I lovingly called it a "gadge cad" (short for gadget catalogue). Also in the "gadge cad" era was Lillian Vernon company. I occasionally get a VCS catalog that comes to my house in her name. It's a lot of fun to browse the merchandise.

I have happily shopped there. Very reputable,beautifully

packed when shipped.

Their prices are high, shipping is expensive. They run

specials with free shipping if your order is over $65.

Their products are top quality.

Yes, I have purchased things with them over the years and haven't had any problems, they are a little high priced on some items, but I guess it is because they hard to find elsewhere!

I read all your replies and I ordered the Lemon dusting powder talc free. I am looking forward to receiving it. Thank all of you for your comments. I ordered a catalog so I can't wait to get it.

The Vermont Country Store is a wonderful shopping experience. At one time my DD lived 20 miles from the store and we would visit her and, of course, the store. I would spend about 3 hours looking at everything and my credit card would be smoking when I checked out.

The store is huge, there is a lovely restaurant on property, and several other shops on the same street. A fun way to spend an afternoon.

Now I shop there online only.

I, just recently, bought a set of queen percale sheets. Kinda expensive, 109.95, but they are percale and nice quality. I will buy more when I can afford it .

They are very expensive and I had to send two dresses back for my mom. I don't remember the details but it was very expensive to do that and a nightmare to deal with. They were pretty rude about it. I made a mental note to avoid them in the future and I've stuck to it.

FuzzyFace — Sat, 16 Jun 2018 14:43:25 GMT

sooner, I guess you and I are the only ones who didn't have a good experience with them. I ordered a (beautiful) nightgown; they goofed my order up and Customer "Service" was very hard to deal with. At first the woman sounded like she didn't have a clue what I was talking about then she tried to get me to buy something else--AFTER I'd returned the nightgown at considerable cost.

At that point I threw up my hands in defeat and haven't bought from them since.

@tockerman-----Woodstock is lovely but, to my knowledge , there is no

VCS there. They have 2 retail locations.....one in Weston and one in

Rockingham.
