*Oneword: Lightning Fast(Not even 24 hours)
Yesterday, After reading review of “Don’t Lose Your Mind, Lose Your Weight by Rujuta Diwekar” by someone, I felt likebuying it. Initially thought of buying today or tomorrow when I go out. Laterchanged my mind and thought of buyingOnline. First site came up in google was FlipCart. Then read review about flipcart.com in MS, and most of them were excellent. So, without waiting, just ordered onlinearound 4PM yesterday. I thought I willbe getting the book by Friday since they mentioned, 3 to 5 business days….
When I checked up my mail yesterday night, I saw a mail@8.50PM saying it is shipped and given a tracking number. Really surprised byseeing a mail at late evening because I had animpression that they work only till 5 or 6PM… anyways. I tried to track thenumber(they clearly mentioned that ‘it may not be available on trackingimmediately’), and I saw ‘call customer care of First Flight Couriers’(LocalDelivery). I just checked that for the heck of it…:)
Today, around 11.30AM, someone came and knocked my door.Guess who? It was the courier person from First Flight Courier carrying theFlipCart.Com package. Never thoughtIndian sites would do the job this faster… Never tried on any online purchase these years because of the badexperience I had with seventymm.com. This was excellent…
Things to Note:Buy anything above 100Rs to avail a freedelivery or it costs 30 rs for delivery. I can understand, otherwise how can they get some profit out of thisbusiness….?
Site design is not that great. Doesn’t look that great.But, you can get the things easily too. Lack of professionalism.
Creating accountis so easy compared to other sites….
They don’t take the CREDIT CARD details with them. It getsdiverted to CCAvenue(Secured Site) and the payment is done thru that(like wedo for paying bills online)!
Next time, when you want to purchase books, Try this out.100% worth…
Oh finally. The book was costing 199. They had a discountof 35 rs. I got it for 164RS… I wouldn’t have got this if I had gone out toBook Paradise in Jayanagar and bought it …
