Dented experience

Recommended Posts

Went shopping for a new fridge and chanced upon a particular model which fit our size and capacity.

 

The salesman offered us a further 100 dollars off if we take the display set as they are clearing up the space.

 

we took a good look and the fridge and it was rather flawless, Paid full amount on the spot and agreed on delivery date.

 

On the day of delivery, we discovered a obvious dent on the door and i called up the sales and complained.

 

He offered to take back the fridge and offered us another brand new set from agent warehouse but with top up. Alternatively i may also go back down to their store for full refund which i find it absurd as it causes inconvenience to me.

 

megadiscount store, this is probably i last time i would step into your store.

 

btw, is not about money. But the principle in the sales agreement and the obvious inconvenience of having no fridge for few days due to their error.

[thumbsdown]

Usually these kind of stores also not cheap. Neighborhood stores cheaper. My parents always buy from one shop that sells really cheap. His prices always cheaper than those megastores. Even if you compare his price for a brand new set with their display set, his can sometimes still be cheaper.

I don't know whether it's a must to pay upfront, if it's not, NEVER PAY FIRST.

 

Learn from experience already, once fully paid, nothing will ever get done...

 

So far only Star Furniture give me good service even after fully paid, the rest all jiak sai, play punk, lucky all those I didn't pay full, else I will die talking to them.

 

My sofa from Rozel, I ask for white, and also wooden legs, when it comes, its in brown and metal legs. How good is that....

 

 

Same goes to all those electrical appliances.

Sale by sample. U can void the agreement. As they default first.

but this will only delay further as buying from another store will waste another few more days... [:(]

 

my point is....

 

a sale agreement is a contract and if good is not deliver in good condition, then a replacement is a must, regardless whether I paid for a display set or not.

 

they insist I top up as the new set is fresh from warehouse and and a display set.

 

bottom line......lousy service and business sttitude

Usually if its dented, they will offer discounts.

 

I have a friend who is doing transport for these consumer goods...if they accidentally dented it, they will buy it off the customer and then lay long to recover the cost. Sometime got good deals but you gotta accept the dents (which some is hardly can be seen as its at the side and once you slide it into the cabinet...all looks well)

 

But to deliver a defective item is obviously trying to cheat.

 

I have similar bad experience with Gain City as well...what they sell and what is delivered is totally different. I will never go back to them again. I am using a small shop to do my servicing now...they dun bring a big crew with them...but they do a great job and I find they value your business more.

 

For electrical stuff...i usually go see from Best Denki etc...then go to those small shops and check...they usually got no stocks on hand...so delivery is usually done by agent directly. (Eg Samsung...LG etc...) So lower chance of you getting a demo or display unit.

Ya, I got my washer and fridge from neighbourhood store, almost 15% cheaper than HN and courts, got freebies somemore, only bad thing, no CC, but it's worth it. The fridge alone is like 3k....
