Unethical Business Practices

I checked rates on their site, they showed 12000 for Mumbai for a cell phone but on the next (checkout page) the price was 14000. Their customer registration page has small (taluk) places for CITY field but Navi Mumbai is missing. T


he site constantly throws error messages, even after you enter credit card details. But the worst is something else: They show really low prices for cell phones that are not in stock at all. For example, I checked the E90 price- at 25000, it’s far lesser than list price, but it’s simply not available with them. They use these gimmicks. It’s a sad site and the business lacks ethics.


If that’s not enough, their prices are higher than those at most other resellers. You would expect them to have lower prices than others as they are (claim to be) big mobile sellers but wrong. Even E-Zone can often give lower prices. But yes, you can bargain with the Mobile Store guys and they will reduce 5% ish. All in all, a cheap brand. I would not recommend anyone buy from the mobile store. For Nokias in India, concept stores are the best, followed by priority dealers and big retailers (ezone, chroma ). The advantage at Mobile Store, probably, is that they have a large catalogue but I find them shady and will avoid dealing with them unless absolutely necessary. On that note, India still lacks a credible cellphone selling site or store chain.
