HomeShop18.. Amazing Experience !!

Last few days   I was searching for party wear sarees for my sister's wedding , so kept on browsing hundreds of sites. At last, got the perfect one on Homeshop18. (With the right price tag and all the more it was brand new – why I am highlighting this. Here comes the story. It was not that the chosen one was not available on other portals. Actually I had ordered the same brand saree from another site (will not reveal the name right here). The attractive discount  lured me.They were selling at 50% discounted price. Even Homeshop18 could not match that price. But when I got the saree I found out why it was sold at such a lower price. The saree was crumbled and on top of it torn at few places. It was not at all a fresh stock.  I immediately asked the customer care for a reverse pickup and finally, they have processed the refund.
