I dont want to talk about 1300flowers specifically, but generally speaking ordering from your local florist or from an online florist each have their advantages and disadvantages. Whilst companies like 1300flowers aren't florists and take a commission for orders they gather, they provide a convenience factor that you pay for. They are easy to contact via the internet or phone. When you phone the florist directly, you dont really know what standard you are going to get. If they dont have a web site, you can be ordering sight unseen and a lot of small florists have trouble rotating stock therefore you may be sending flowers that dont last too long. On the plus side, the florist may not be charging you for the amount of the commission that would go to the order gatherer or the relay service fee they are probably paying also. In my opinion, you are best dealing with real florists that are part of a network like us at http://www.galleryflowers.com.au or rosetime.com.au .
Because we are florists you get to speak to a florist, not a telephone operator. You can select from our standard range or make up something to order. Florist to florist networks share their orders amongst themselves which translates into better value for the customer because third party relay fees are avoided. So, its up to you.
