I ordered a microwave and an induction cooker from letsbuy.com on 9th August. I am yet to receive the goods. Shopping at letsbuy has been the worst online shopping experience for me. I have spent a considerable amount of time to track the order and to get it delivered. The idea of getting it online was that it is more convenient. But this has turned out to be a nightmare.They shipped the order later than the time they promised to deliver, and that too they opted to ship via road from Delhi to Bangalore! They should have atleast chosen Air transport to save some of the delayed time. They also then sent me the wrong waybill details.
Letsbuy Customer care [proudly] states that they do not stock any of the items, and instead get it from the manufacturer when an order is received. So "it is not in their hands" if the order is delayed due to this. Also, they are now stating that the courier company's delivery time is also "not in their hands".
Letsbuy should not advertise the 4-8 working days of delivery period; instead they should mention that delivery timeline is not in their hands, and the buyer is at it's own risk of purchasing the item from them. I guess that would make life easy for them, and anybody who opts to buy from them.
I haven't received a single call from them explaining the problem or giving me an option to cancel the order.
I have recently moved to Bangalore, and was hoping to get these vital kitchen appliances asap. But letsbuy has made things really difficult.
I strongly advise people not to use letsbuy, and instead use ebay or just go out and buy stuff from a local store. Ebay has a better system (ratings) of keeping the dealers motivated for a good service. I have never experienced such problems with ebay.
