[Resolved]  Flipkart — flash sale by flipkart. item goes out of stock after being added to cart!!

Address:Bangalore Urban, Karnataka, 400018
Website:www.flipkart.com

On[protected] i took part in the online flash sale for mi tv on flipkart. I had successfully added the item to my cart and was on payment page feeding my cart details when the item runs out of stock.

Are they seriously trying to suggest there are people out there who can feed their payment details in less then 30 seconds. Kudos to them for making a fool of people and making them either use remember their card details on their portal. Or they are trying to say all the units were sold for cash on delivery.

1 tv costs 39, 999 rs and if they really sold all the units for cash kudos again to flipkart for promoting cashless transactions.

Anyways my complaint is how can an item go out of stock in less then 15 seconds after being added to the cart. Sorry to say this but i am no superhuman to make payment and checkout in less then 20 seconds.

So i request consumer complaint forum to look into this matter.

Attaching the screenshot of the same.
I hope flipkart doesnt come up with the excuse that the time in screenshot is 12:03 pm. So it prolly got sold up. Note the tabs i have open next to the flipkart page, after the item went out of stock from the cart. I did a search and found out this wasnt the first time. Hence the complaint
