'Pathetic' doesn't begin to explain Jabong's attempt.
The original site is selling the product cheaper than Jabong is, even after an'additional discount'.
I was genuinely excited by this offer, as I perceived Jabong to be an authentic online shopping portal, which didn't attempt to cheat customers like Flipkart(don't even get me started on Flipkart!)
After I decided to verify the authenticity of the brand(as the shirt costs above 1K), I came across the original website for the company, where the shirt costs 100 bucks less than on Jabong. I admit 100 rupees is not too much, but now I am hesitant to purchase anything on Jabong.com
I believe this additional discount scheme started as a response to Myntra's discounts, which frankly happens EVERYDAY! Even if this wasn't an attempt to fight Myntra, it doesn't justify fooling customers by using words like'Extra Discount'.
