Order on COD to be on safe side

 

[varkey]

Placed a COD order, waiting for cancellation mail, hope they give some coupons for the inconvenience!

 

[Arun.P]

even place an order, too

so let see

 

[varkey]

1 TB is OOS already!

Flip kart has bought out letsbuy, right? Then they are following the same strategyvof flipkart to get some visitors

out of stock.. looks like a pricing error

 

[mehrotra.akash]

The Wd looks genuine

Its a discontinued model. Stock clearance perhaps?

 

[Neo-N]

I saw this deal in the morning and never placed an order. I am almost certain that it is a pricing mistake. Even if it were a discontinued model, still, 1TB at 2.8k is impossible!

I bought this hdd for 2100rs in morning when the offer is live !!!

Now question is, will I get HDD or i will get my money returned ???

what do these dumb companies get by listing OOS items for months?

It is(was) 500GB

Which certainly is feasible (pre flood pricing was around this amount)

^ It was 1TB when I saw the Ad on DD!

 

[mehrotra.akash]

There were 2 deals

IOMega 1TB : 2100

and

WD 500GB: 27xx

 

[dragon_unleashed]

Both the deals are out of stock.

 

[medpal]

i immediately tried this deal after seeing this thread and it was oos.

May be they realized the error and then withdrew the deal.

Congratulations to all who grabbed it.

and best of luck for successful completion of the deal.

It's still showing in progress.. not sure whether they will honour or not

I don't think they will approve it

Get ready to get your money back

Pricing errors = Result of non techie employees hired for data entry jobs.

I don't think they will approve it

My intuition keep reminding me that they will approve it this time, fingers crossed

There are a few reasons mentioned in the article: http://www.ecommerceoptimization.co...y-out-of-stock-items-may-want-to-think-twice/

SEO too plays a part. If someone is searching for WD 500GB passport in Google / Bing and lands on to LB / FK then it's giving them a place in the SERP although the product is OOS.
