[Resolved]  Poorvika Mobile, Vijayanagar, Velachery, Chennai — Caution to shoppers at poorvika mobiles, vijayanagar, velachery

Address:

Chennai, Tamil Nadu

Dear all,

This is a caution to all who shop at poorvika mobile at vijaynagar, velachery, chennai.
I lost my blackberry charger and went to this shop to purchase one.
The sales guy gave me one and said it will cost me 550 rupees.
I purchased it and paid for using my debit card.
Just out of curiosity, i went to the bypass road mobile shop (New simple city, near tital eye+) and asked how much would the same charger cost me.
The guy said 300 rupees. I was a bit shocked and went back to poorvika to return the charger.
They were not willing to take it back.
They started justifying the price saying it was original, and sourced it through the "right channel" etc.
The guy was also saying that i have signed the debit card slip and so i cannot do anything (When i said i will talk to the bank to stop the txn - which is useless and not feasible anyways).

I am sharing this as a hard lesson that might help my fellow citizens. The amount is small but still i feel that this shop wala did not behave in a fair manner.

Thanks,
Rahul malhotra.
