Flipkart watch thread

Ordered 7 Audio MP3 disc in 1 order, FK delivered those in four different days with the same delivery agent.

Anyhow saw a pattern here once it "Received at Flipkart Kolkata Facility" it takes 3 days to clear out meaning once it received in your local FK dept, the 3rd day it reach to your doorstep....and it is under claim delivery period which shown after the successful payment authorization.

Due to all CD are in bengali they collect/stock it locally but 1 of them need to collect from Mumbai,which reach FK Kolkata 9/6 (sat) but it is "out for delivery" 13/6 which is exactly 3rd day.

I think delivery slow due to Heat.

So order at 5/6

4 of them received;7/6
1 of them received 9/6
2 of them received 11/6 ---- (already 1 of my order which came from mumbai lying at their facility)
Last 1 received 13/6 ---(this one collected from Mumbai)

So, according to order estimation the last shipment must reach 12/6 but it got late by one day.

The era of discounts and low price at Flipkart may indeed be over.

Today the Nokia 808 PureView is listed on Flipkart at 33,899 which is exactly the same price offered by Nokia.
Saholic offers it at 32,499 while Buytheprice has it at 32,000.

Whats worse is that they don't even allow anybody to discuss prices of the products from other websites.

Ordered some DeepCool fans on 8th of this months, still the status shows processing.
Today received a mil from them saying that it will take 4 more working days.

[kARTechnology]

It must be summer heat that must have spoiled the motherboard

Maybe not. But they can sure check this thread!

Tell your local store to give you 90degree angled SATA cable.

Anyway, congrats for getting the replacement of the mobo.

WD Green 2TB was selling for 6.8k two hours back on flipkart. Now it's 7.1k.

[swiftshashi]

My recent experience with flipkart:
Whats Good
1.One Atlas was damaged during transit;Upon complaining,they refunded the amount to my wallet account and also said"If the book is usable,its a complimentary gift from our side.They initially tried to get the book replaced,but since it was out of stock,they refunded the amount.
Whats BAD
1.Their delivery time has increased,does any one know why??
2.Yesterday I ordered I cooling pad,it deducted Rs.2632 from my wallet account.However,when I revisited their page After placing order,It showed Rs.2495.
3.Their price for electronics no longer remains competitive,and is more or less near the MRP.

Depends what you order. Books I get within 2 or 3 days max. Imported books take lot longer.
Electronic goods? Well bought a Android phone from there and it took 5 days to ship. Not that bad I suppose

[amruth kiran]

i ordered " dead space" pc version along with "gta iv" and " lord of the rings complete bookset".
it arrived in 1 day only!!!
ya. just waited for a day. in bangalore.

Precisely,thats what it used to be earlier.But recently I ordered a book(which said 2-4 workingdays) on 9th,it was delivered on 19.Then for that atlas,which was also ordered on the same day with similar waiting time,but was delivered on 20th.

Not for mine.

WD BLUE 500 GB SATAIII
ASUS DVD Drive

Seasonic S12II 520W

For a total of ~ 65000.Got every component well within expected delivery date ...got the last item on the 4th day after the day of order . I was Happy.


The hard drive was defective contacted flipkart ... they said that they will replace it and in my order status it is shown that return accepted , I was informed that I will get new hdd on 28/6/12 .

[saikiasunny]

Fk increased the price of s12ii 520w from 3.9k to whopping 4.6k

[topgear]

at-least they have reduced the price of Hyper 212 Evo and Some CM 90CFM 2K RPM LED fans

[dashing.sujay]

Flipkart is really increasing the prices. I ordered a laptop a week ago and they increased the price by 800 straight. This is when the item is not so huge in demand.

[Chirag]

They keep changing the price multiple times a day. I checked WD 2TB Green Drive in the morning and it was 6.8k, evening it was 7.1k and next day it was 6.8k again. Have noticed the same pattern multiple times this week and it was across all HDDs.

Their delivery too is degrading in quality. Had ordered Mmx Funbook and Sandisk 16gb card (both separately).
I stay in noida, and both these products were lying in delhi (according to tracking details) for 4 days. Had to call customer care many times and then the product finally moved from delhi.
I received both the products 2days after their promised expected delivery date.

Anyone else faced this problem or its only me ???

[d6bmg]

Only that 212 EVO is having some sort of good price in flipkart. I think we need to wait for some pricing mistakes before buying from Flipkart.

On a side note, Blank DVD prices have been decreased.

Letsbuy packaging was better. But in delivery times, FK is still ahead. I ordered two items, and both were delivered within 2-3 days from expected delivery date.

But one thing I don't understand, both my items were routed from bangalore to delhi to my place. They could've directly shipped it to me without sending it to Delhi.

[topgear]

even I'm facing the same thing - ordered some perfume products - they were shipped from mumbai to delhi first and then to my place .

True

Thanks for the info but already got them by paying Rs. 53 extra !

Ordered RS Aggrawal's Quantitive Aptitude book yesterday morning. Got it 20 mins back today morning. 24-hour delivery is indeed commendable but perhaps that is because I'm in Bangalore

[Chirag]

Ordered Transcend JetFlash 500 8GB on July 3. Received it today. They delivered it under 48 hours.
