yes, he was charged 300/- as convenience fee.
Thanks to GOSF2013..i got 35% discount on Woodland casual shoes..got it for 2.1k..3.2k was the initial price incl shipping...got a message saying they have shipped it through fedex..hope it turns out to be good deal...http://shopping.indiatimes.com/fash...-men-casual-shoes-g-40777y13/41799/p_B2149325
AFAIK, the product you mention was available on IT for Rs.2104 since October!
It's not some special "GOSF only offer" or any sort of "exclusive". Yes, the deal may be over now, but it was available for that price since the past 3 months, compared to GOSF which ran for what, 3-4 days?
Link for your reference. See the date of the article - Tuesday, 1 October 2013.

Personally, GOSF disappointed me once again. I bought nothing because I found nothing spectacular about the offers. Just like last years GOSF, Vendors hiked prices and then offered "discounts" on them. Laughable when you compare it to similar sales/offers abroad...

but anyways, it was fun.I think only Croma gave real discount on one or two items. Like 4th Gen iPad for 22k and kobo e-reader for 3k odd.
Rest of online portals just sold at same everyday price +- 100-200 rupees like they do everyday from months. Even the nexus 7 offer was same as from august where it was available for 7999 with sc card.
GOSF was made to snatch noobs in online shopping who have lots of money to spend and get carried away by MRP price.
I for one, didn't see any sort of sale, except the hyped up branding by Google and their friends. By sale, I mean a real sale where these sites show some gut and at least give 500-2000 rupees discount on items (even a limited amount would be fine) instead of increasing MRP price and showing a fake discount in shopping cart.
According to an article in some paper, most sites saw double to quadrupled sales in these 4 days. They could have taken croma's lead and given one two items on good discount instead of spending money on crappy TV commercials or ads. The discount would have helped in retaining customers.
Useless sale imo.

Got a phenomenal 30% off buying a sofa cum bed from fabfurnish.com. The product was already overpriced before GOSF but the 30% brought it lower than jabong which was cheaper earlier.[DOUBLEPOST=1387116557][/DOUBLEPOST]p.s. fabfurnish usually does 15-20% off, so effectively GOSF did an extra 10%
. The theme park turned out to be worthy of the ticket cost. 
Well I got some good stuff for almost half price. I got these shoes for Rs. 4307/-. MRP is Rs. 7599/- and I know CATs are expensive.
