Flipkart — Used & soiled calculator sent in replacement- need 2nd time replacement

OD[protected]

I had ordered a CASIO Classwiz FX-991EX Scientific Calculator.
Originally I got an unit in decent condition, but only one problem, the cover was too loose -so I requested replacement.
--As per tracking details it came from Gurgaon.

The replacement I received has fingerprints & gunk on solar panel, and scratches on plastic. Also seal was broken inside the casio box (bubble wrap envelope seal inside it).
--But, the tracking details reveal that it came directly from Kolkata WB - which is my nearest city - instead of coming from Gurgaon again.

Therefore, it would appear to me that for replacements, Flipkart is sending people the returned products of other users.
Likely I got the returned product of some other person in my state (WB)- hence it originated from WB itself.

By now, 2 agents have informed me that 2nd time replacements are also possible if you contact customer support. Even when you are getting only refund option, you can contact us & we can book 2nd time replacement.

But for this product there appears to be some glitch & they told to try 2 days later if they can get the option then.

So I would request Flipkart team to kindly book a 2nd time replacement for the same, the seller was RetailNet (flipkart itself)- so it should be no problem.
I purchased this in sale & now the price has gone up.

An agent was able to book replacement, please hold until 26th October (ETA delivery)
Will update on the condition of the replacement received.

Meanwhile, if any higher authority can ensure a sealed/unused product is sent to me- probably from a hub outside WB- please do update me here on consumercomplaints comments
