How much reliable is Indiatimes ?

[vyral_143]

Recently when hunting for laptop for my one of friend with budget of 35k I have found it cheapest on Indiatimes. Costs good 1200 lesser than Amazon and 2000 lesser than snapdeal. However I have not bought anything form Indiatimes ever.

I want to know if its reliable or not ? There is no COD option available either except snapdeal.

Site is reliable, lowest prices for most products (after discount).

But takes lot of time for delivery. eg. I booked a phone for a friend on 05 Dec 2013, estimated delivery (Mumbai) 17 Dec 2013

In that case I would better wait for GOSF on snapdeal or try to get some coupons.

Why not search for the same laptop in the local markets. I usually finding a 1000-1500 bucks less at local computer stores than online stores.
GOSF, I don't have any hopes on this. Would suck as usual with the Same trend, The margin on the products and losses occurring to COD is a PITA for the E-tailers.. Many of them are yet to be profitable. So I do not expect Some Black friday thing here.

Locally I tried to search but same model is not available. I m looking for Lenovo Z580 59-383215 as of now. Only 1 seller here had similar but with 2GB graphics, costing approx 37-38K.

Let see if I can get some coupon.
