Hi guys, ....
How to start ...okay well like me u guys must also be getting the ads and promotional mails from many of the online shopping sites... here'z just one of my and my friend's experience with REDIFFSHOPPING..........I?ve been getting many mails from rediff shopping offering many lucrative deals..steal a deal kinds... something like get a digital diary for RS150/- , buy set of 3 formal shirts for Rs299/- and things like that.
One fine day I thought why not give this stuff a try... so I logged on to it and I ordered for a set of the same 3 formal shirts for Rs 299/- + Rs 35/- as shipping charges and the shirts displayed at the site seemed quite okie, though I was not expecting a great quality and all but then too I thought 300 bucks for 3 shirts is a deal u can take a chance with.... . The COD (Cash on Delivery) option was available for this and I opted for the same.
The order got booked and I got the delivery for the shirts after 15 days..... till now things were fine enough..... the day I got the delivery I was anticipating a
reasonable stuff.. not a very good one though coz I had not shelled out too much for anticipating a great stuff.... I opened the packet and to my surprise I found that 2 out of 3 shirts sent were of same colour and pattern and more over the cloth quality was just like any of the roadside stuff u can get for Rs 50/- and all..... well....days passed by and I made my mind not to buy anything from rediff again ....and keeps on telling my friends also not to fall prey to these offers...... and then one day I was sitting with my friend and he saw a mail in my account which was advertising 2 Polo t-Shirts for Rs 199/- he got excited and asked me to order the same for him in spite of my warning and all he said he can take a chance for 200 bucks..... good I said so the order was booked.... and alike the earlier time I got the packed delivered... he was like me very excited to receive it and opened it... and then what!!!! he was zapped to see the T-Shirts sent were very similar to each other almost alike... and the material of cloth was, how to describe...... u can see the other person's face clearly through it.... the collar of the t-shirt was already torn and the stitching was all loose u can by a little effort take the whole collar out (the good part of it was you had the joy of both collared and w/o collared tees). and he had a nice 2 days sleep with the Rs 100/- tee used for one night each.....it was not worn after that and now it is used as a dusting cloth ???? that?s the state of products being advertised by Rediffshopping.
I would recommend not to go for all that stuff on rediff shopping....it may look lucrative... but guys good things come with good price........ what say....?? well be aware of all this crap on net and dont waste your hard earned money like that..... you can get a better deal at any SALE....in an outlet nearby...where u can actuall see and touch the stuff and decide to buy or not to buy.....
