On 24th October 2014 I placed the order but got an empty box delivered to my house. I took up the issue with Flipkart and they assured me a monetary compensation of Rs. 55 with the product. I asked for an apology letter with the product, however ever I never got one.
After receiving empty boxes the first two time, I thought that it will be a good idea to video record the order delivery and open it in front of them.
So when the package arrived I got one of the delivery guys to open the box for me. Since the product was Cash on Delivery I had to pay first to get the box opened. And for the third time I was stunned to see an empty box.
I agree that Flipkart needs to ensure that such things do not happen but in my opinion Flipkart has very high standards and it's unfair to say they are bad because of such sporadic incidents.
Though I have ordered numerous times from FK, after this thread, I was having my fingers crossed, as I had ordered for a mouse. Thankfully, the package was delivered properly. Relieved now.
@OP: Do update us once you get the Fourth empty package
This is not something exactly new from FK. I purchased the digiflip speakers for my friend it didn't worked for the first time I asked for replacement and they didn't send the product at first even after taking the product and two days later I was resend the same product from fk.
