Hello,
I am a regular seller and a buyer on flipkart. And i have observed flipkart from both perspective. Here is what i have discovered so far:
Flipkart mostly concentrate on big sellers, therefore any issue faced by single customer or seller will not be taken seriously. And they can go against their own policies. For instance, sellers are not allowed to increase prices 30days prior to big billion sale. But their main sellers can increase prices even while the sale is running. Therefore fooling customers by selling the final product for the same price and calling it discounted.
A big serious corruption: the field executives/ delivery guys are the major culprits for both sellers and buyers. As a buyer i received some different products instead of what i have ordered, and sometimes missing accessories. And i thought this was sellers fault.
But when i become a seller myself on flipkart, i started receiving products as "courier returns" which means, when a customer cancels the order before delivery. And got shocked to see fake items inside the box! The product never reached customer, then who replaced the original product with the fake? The courier guys! Who replaces the products on the way, both for delivery and returns.
So, flipkart is not at all a trusted place to shop or sell. Better stay away from doing business or ordering expensive items from there.
