Had ordered a pair of shoes on Dec 12th. CoD. Promised delivery was 2-3 days. Subsequently got a notification that the delivery is pushed out to 7 days. Further, after a few days got notification that the same is now cancelled and flipkart blaming the supplier.
I think that this is a clear case of Flipkart being over eager and over promising "deals" without basic checks on inventory and availability. They did not even bother to apologize or give any form of alt. recommendation, leave alone compensation.
In summary, will not trust Flipkart for anything that one really needs in defined timeframe.
