Reviews & Discussions On E-Commerce Websites

Which all online websites can you suggest for car accessories and car audio products apart from Snapdeal and Ebay.in?

Regards,
Sankar

Unfortunately, all the websites (Ebay.in/Tradus.com/Snapdeal.com/Shopclues.com/shopping.rediff.com/shopping.indiatimes.com/pepperfry.com and many more) are having same sellers. Even flipkart started doing the same (other than wsretail, all stores are from different sellers).

What you need to see is who is giving better discounts/coupons and grab from them. Most of these after sales are almost same. You should be able to get replacement fairly easy. Do not forget to see seller's rating in their website too (if you are seeing the seller for first time - like ebay.in)

@nitin,
Yes, you are right. Unless it is branded, you do not know the quality of products. I mostly buy branded items online stores. When ever i bought some other "brand", i had it.

But Jabong, Myntra, Fashion&you, Flipkart, Yebhi and few other websites are giving good material stuffs (ladies apparels).

Last time i bought for me was Provouge 3 formal shirts for 1000RS ! (Yes, 1000Rs). MRP of each was 1899. You can not get less than 900 even at factory outlet. And, the quality is too good (Mfd. 2012 oct - bought in dec 2012). That was from hs18.

Have you had experience buying from Ebay Global Easy Buy? I had heard bad reviews about about them. An amplifier which was bought was broken during shipping but ebay refused to take it back. I am planning to import a powerful monoblock amplifier. I tried ishopinternational and ibhejo but both are confusing to me

Never had any bad experience from global ebay. You can check amazon too. They have a free international shipping on many items. If Indian customs do not charge the import duties on your products, they reverse back the deducted amount. HDDs(Hard disk drives) were available last week.
Ibhejo support was not up to the mark.ishop international also ships quickly, but the packing was not good.

Luckily nothing happened to the items.

In global easy buy, you need to ask for refund before their given time expiry. Many dealers delay it so that you can't raise claim. They were always helpful to me thru twitter. (email takes days, twitter replies comes in minutes).

Ishop & ibhejo won't refund the import taxes even if they do not get charged). Do not buy many items together. Buy one and see thru amazon(if free shipping available). I need not tell you about seller ratings as you check that always

So should i buy Rockford Fosgate T1500-1BDCp from Global Easy Buy? It costs 38k there while in India The same amplifier costs 72k.

Checked Amazon.com. Found this link for Sundown Audio SAZ-3500D

http://www.amazon.com/SAZ-3500D-V2-...CRJUE/ref=aag_m_pw_dp?ie=UTF8&m=AIIZF0ROPFSE5

Is shipping free for this product to Asia? How much customs duty should i pay for it?

If i am in your place, I will surely take the risk by paying 38K without warranty than 72 with warranty. Even if it works for 2 years, you can buy one more for another 4K (38Kx2=>76000).

If it is just 3-4k difference for product with warranty, i would have bought from India than importing from US.

The total you pay thru Amazon is $1267. (Other product)
$1,124.99
$142.57 Estimated shipping & handling

$1,267.56 Total before tax
$0.00 Estimated tax to be collected
$1,267.56 Estimated order total

They have not mentioned the tax. You can write a mail to them and ask the same(whether they have included taxes in shipping & handling). If they do not mention the tax, and if the courier guys give you an extra bill, you may have to pay that as per duties.


You can check with ishopinternational by asking a quote by showing US link (cheaptest / best deal). They will calculate the import duties and give you the final price. It may be cheaper than 38K for Rockford Fosgate T1500-1BDCp.

In ishopinternationali felt the calculation very complex. I am looking for Sundown Audio SAZ-3500D V2 amplifier. Can you help me with this?

Terribly slow service from Rediff.com. Placed an order for a book a couple of weeks ago and still no signs of getting it anytime soon.

Thankfully I opted for cash on delivery. I doubt if I will try them again either.

Capture those review as a screenshot and bombered at their facebook page as well as any related social media. They will react fast and solve your problem.
Also post Nokia India Facebook - Twitter Channel.

I did this during the month of April when they introduced first time 15% Cashback with Zero % EMI offer for Samsung phone/tablets and they charge full price instead of EMI at credit card account.

Re: Flipkart the Great India Diwali Cheat cyber cell offer

This is not schoking because the online stores mostly sell reworked or repaired product mostly. All these mobile companies have first line sellers like leading mobile shops and the mobiles which are brought my customer incase have issues they are sent back to factory again and the mobile manufacturers repair them sell them with new package to second line distibuters (online stores) no wonder how they give lot of frebee's and offers. I got this info from one of the first line seller. I was realy shocked to hear this.
