Online Shopping & Service SUCKS??

I am MAD right now, at F-AMAZON. I am an Amazon Prime member & been looking for a Back Pack. I found this nice looking High Sierra Access backpack & chose the one color to buy. Different color somehow had different prices. I decided that i'll order it in evening cuz didnt wanna do it at work. I go home in the evening & the price was bumped up by $7. What the FUNK? Just in few hours, in the same day, the price of particular model i selected got bumped up. All other models/colors are priced SAME. WTF... Online shopping sometimes really SUCK because of this (apart from all other reason - u cant see the stuff in real, no guarantee of quality, sometime, shipping issues etc). I am SO MAD. Like ometimes same happens for flights/hotels & whatever. I have read that sometimes these guys bump up prices jsut for the customer who was looking for it & all that. I kinda like AMAZON but this was bad. Sending them an email complaing about this to see what they can do. I have had other sucky experiences as well.

  • Like I recently ordered BACKJOY from backjoy.com, a seat pad to help you lower back etc. It never came to me. Those guys put wrong address on the order even when I gave them right address. WHen I asked for my money back, they tell me they can only return the price but not shipping. WTF?? After long argument, they said they'll put a request. Because of my persistence, I was able to make it alright but will share more about it later.
  • I had also ordered Seating-Solution from Amazon, which is a seat cushion. Had great reviews & was nice in beginning. But started getting compressed & doesn't seems as useful now for long use. Also ordered battery for my phone & they guy never sent it to me. They did return my money but I didnt get what I needed in time.
  • Reminds me of eBay incident. I bought this watch & accessory set from eBay few years ago & the seller never SHIPPED my item. No response to email or whatever & just disappeared. eBay later disabled her account but WTF?? I lost my money & didn't get anything. Recently bought a head/ear phone too which seems to be broken in few weeks. They didnt send me what I asked for, changed (upgraded) the order & now this. eBay is really SHADY sometimes.
  • There is this site I recently found called 1saleaday.com, I really liked it in beginning because of nice looking deals. But the first order of a watch which never showed up was really disappointing. Got few other small things like cuff-links, card-holders etc which are all very poor quality or not really good. I thought it would be my DEALS2BUY.COM (which I like) but...
There is so much I can write now if I think. I also have complains from so many places.... American Airlines is really sucky as I shared my experience I guess (did I?). Had a tussle with Hotels.com, still in progress on that. Can't remember it all & don't wanna fill this whole blog with RANTS & RAVES, but ONLINE SHOPPING sometimes really SUCKS!!

Black Friday... Cyber Monday

So.... my Indian readers (& some others) might be wondering what is Black Friday?? My Indian friends might relate it as bad day with bad memories of Black Friday of Bombay Bombing. Black Friday is the American big sale day. It has huge discounts because of Christmas shopping start & on that day people just crazy. I bought a WD 500 gb Passport drive for just $69 & some other stuff. I have this problem with shopping, I can't resist huge discounts. I mean how can you say no to 50-90% discount. An item which is usually priced at 50 & being sold for 5-10 dollars, how won't you buy it, even if you need it or not. I buy it... I have so much stuff I have bought which I never use. The next awesome day is Cyber Monday where similar kind of craziness starts for tech stuff. And then the craziness lasts till Christmas or even New Year at times. Honestly, you don't need a special day for best deals, if you keep an eye then you can find great deals round the year. Like I bought this awesome Acer laptop for just $350 last month. Deals2buy is my place which I check almost everyday, they have some great deals on there. Well friends, Happy Shopping.... and send me some gifts maybe, if you find some great discounts/deals!!
