Gift Baskets - would you buy them?

If you were looking for gift baskets and stumbled upon a website that had gift baskets for different price ranges and a choice of mens, womens, or unisex for each price range. Would you buy them? Each style would have a list of what kind of things would be in it and a picture of an example, but each one would be a little different. Would you trust that or would you want to know exactly what was in the basket before you bought it? It's a business idea of mine but i thought i would get consumer opinions first to see if it would be marketable.
--------------------
If your thinking of going into that business, yes it's great business. What your saying exists somewhat, but there's lots of room for growth. It's tricky though and costly to make the catalogs and get them out there. I do it but it's part of our business( gourmet market) so we have other things to fall back on. There are some famous companies out there that do very well and people go by the picture you show.( usually no questions asked) You also have to add a clause that says "some items may be substituted" ( in the pic because it will happen at times). It's a spotty business with 80% of all sales coming on x-mas and the other 20% the other 364 days of the year. Need more info? Feel free to email me
