For fairly low delivery prices, they will ship your order with ice packs and even though my mail delivery is typically at least one (and often two) days behind what most people would get, I have never had a problem.

Their cheeses have never disappointed me. I usually go to their sale page and just order whatever appeals to me. I recently got an amazing assortment including some really interesting US made cheeses, a camembert, a *fresh* cheese from Italy and an incredible herbed goat cheese.

Cheese is expensive, but I find their prices in line with stores on the mainland.

One last thing - I usually get together with my friends and put in an order for all of us. Saves on shipping and reduces any potential problem of someone's package getting waylaid.

I haven't bought anything else from them, but the site is full of interesting foods.
