The Orange Shop

Hello, we ordered a tray of the page oranges on 1/11/13 and it shipped on 1/18/13. I may be wrong but I was expecting it to arrive in 3 days. So every day, my two young girls and I looked for them. The box arrived yesterday afternoon (1/23/13) and it looked a little beat up. Still hoping for the best, I opened it up and was sad to see that some of the fruit had popped out of their cushioned compartments and looked a little squished and past their prime. Still holding out hope, I grabbed one of them and it was so overripe that I could not peel it and ended up squeezing most of the juice out. Waaaahhh! What I tasted was good but I soon discovered at least two more that had either split open or felt a little rotten. My daughter wanted one so I cut that one into slices for her but noticed a bad/rotten spot and cut around that and tossed it. That one tasted overripe so we stopped there. I put the rest in the fridge and am hoping the rest don't go bad too quickly. I really wanted to enjoy the oranges as much as the other reviewers had! I was hesitant to order fresh fruit from Florida to be shipped to Colorado and am hoping this was simply a fluke or maybe it's just too long of a trek for the little guys. P.S. I keep selecting '2 stars Could be better' but it ends up with '3 stars' when I preview it. Maybe it's my smartphone messing it up.
