I noticed the other day under "New Arrivals" that Harry London had a new selection of all Buckeyes.  Being a big fan, I went back in yesterday to order and could not find them anywhere.  Then I noticed that Harry London has a TSV on Sunday....bet they will be in those shows.  Wonder what other surprises we will see?

@judgejudith  And who wouldn't be a fan of everything BUCKEYES??!!

I've never purchased Harry London candies, but boyyyyy, talk about temptation.  This year, I just may give in.  Life is too short to not enjoy chocolate when you can.

A couple of years ago I ordered a TSV Harry London chocolate assortment in gift tins. Good thing I checked the chocolate before gifting (I checked too late for return) most of the buckeye & milk chocolates were kind of squashed and not suitable for gifting. They tasted ok but ruined my gift idea. They were too expensive for the quality and I won't order again. They do look tempting but I just think back on my disappointment and take a pass.

I've ordered the tins every year for gifting, very often the TSVs and I always check them out before they go into the box to send (since they are individually wrapped, it's easy) and have never, ever had a problem.  No old pieces either (with ugly white  on them), so I've been very happy with them... and of course I will hold back a tin for my family to enjoy and boy do they enjoy them!!

@judgejudith  If I were you I'd order chocolates from Godiva.com.  While I too LOVE buckeyes and great chocolate, Godiva is THE ONLY place I buy from online and absolutely LOVE every little oh so tasty morsel.  They package beautifully, NEVER any broken or crushed pieces, easy to order online at any and every price point you wish to spend.  They also do bill to/ship to and they always arrive on time.

I highly recommend you at least take the time to check out Godiva chocolates.

I didn't care for this line either.   Interestingly enough, the Waggoner's line (which is the same family) is a hundred times better.

I just didn't feel like the quality of the ingredients was at all good.  I also purchased them for my gift bags once.  I tried each variety and decided that none of them were worthy.   Oh well - live and learn.  

YMMV, however.

Not a big fan of HL chocolates. They are ok, but not worth the money to me.

I make my own buckeyes, from a very old family recipe, and the secret is in the chocolate used. I get told all the time that they are the best.

I used to order the big tins of the Harry London, but I found that every third candy was a Buckeye. Way too many of that flavor! Now I love peanut butter, but hate it in candy, much less chocolate.  ICk!!   Stopped buying HL and found other  better tasting brands.

Have any of you ever purchased "Giannios Chocolates"?  They are an "American Family owned Chocolate Company" and have been in business since 1910.  I first found them on HSN...Let me tell you they are "Fantastic"! 269 FIVE STAR Rating...That in itself says alot.  Seriously, you will not be disappointed  with this candy company.  They have their own website Giannios.com  and the big tins 5 lbs of chocolates are indivudally wrapped with the name of the candy on the wrapper.  I have gifted these so many times and have always received rave reviews and very well appreciated 'Thank You's".
