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.

So after I got my saree from Homeshop 18(though not at half the price), still I was really happy. The good thing about Homeshop is whatever they send is properly packed.

They have lots of offers on books also. I had ordered Revolution 2020. I got it for just INR 84 (MRP was 140) with no shipping charges. No other site could match their price.

I am not vouching for Homeshop 18,  just sharing my personal experience.  I am really satisfied shopping from Homeshop18………So Happy Browsing…Keep Shopping !

SnapDeal goof up delivery became HUL Marketing Opportunity

Snapdeal Goof up  Recently, Snapdeal goofs up delivery of Samsung galaxy duo mobile phone. The phone Mr  Laxminarayan Krishnamurthy     wanted to gift his wife on her birthday. Instead of samsung mobile he has received an old kitchen soap. Imagine a customer reaction.  See what he has written on his facebook wall and the post got viral and till now it has got 20,524 shares on Facebook. Imagine how many people the post might have reached. The rough estimates of the reach could be around 40 to 50 lac people. (just an estimate) Nothing much to say about Snapdeal, when you see mouthshut reviews and customer complaints.  This is not new. We have earlier faced the similar issue with Snapdeal where they were not able to deliver a printer and in another instance they have sent a defective tricycle for my kid.    Read More : Buying From SnapDeal : Think Twice.
