Amazon India — fooling customers under flash sell of redmi

Website:www.amazon.in

While i am not in favor of redmi phones. I wanted to buy one for my relative.
I saw the flash sales of redmi 4 on amazon today 5-dec-2017 at noon.

I looged in a few minutes before and as soon as the deal was thrown open, i added it to my cart successfully. By then the deal was about 4% claimed.

So the item was successfully in my cart for checkout within next 15 minutes.

However as soon as i accessed my cart i got a message that 'the item is no longer available from the seller you selected'

I just recently commented this behavior by online sellers on this site only and just within 2 days of my comment i really get the same experience.

See the attached screenshot. At one point it says item not available despite of successfully adding it to cart within the claimed deal and yet it also throws checkout screen. On checkout it failed though.

It's clear that flash sells of amazon are ways of fooling the customers.
