Miraw is one of the worst online shopping that I have come across. Not at all customer centric. All became cheating money on the expense of the customer.
I am an Indian and a customer from UK and ordered products worth GBP125. When the order was received it was ok quality, but then decided to keep it and We thought that rather sending it back does not look good for the service.
Upon one month later, received a letter from a courier company (DHL) stating that i have to pay the Duty, VAT, Import charges to the UK. It was GBP17.48. I was dis-appointed with this letter and called Mirraw (customer centre is in Bermuda, spoke to about 20 mins of my time with the charges on saturday) and explained about this. They are NOT in a position to agree that these are charges from seller, but they claim as tax on the online products.
When i checked the product order sheet, the total amount was worth Rs.3172. The net profit for the seller is Rs.8203. (GBP125 = Rs.11375 with the rate of Rs91 to 1GBP). After seeing the product sheet cost and the amount being charged for the product, I have then realised that the product is NOT at all worth for the money of GBP125 been spent on. The customer support is not at all user friendly. It is located in the Bermuda region. All they say is check the website for details, but failed to tell the customer that information regarding the charges are located in a specific page etc...
All and all the Mirraw is one of the money making e-commerce websites and waste of time and money. If you are from India living elsewhere in the world, then go to India in person and buy in local shop ( using the extra charges that is paid for mirraw as your flight ticket). That would be my simple advise.
