Flipkart 'caught' Offering Fake Discount

[+harshitram]

 

NEW DELHI: One of the biggest reasons consumers are flocking from brick-and-mortar stores to e-commerce websites is the substantial discounts that the latter offer. However, a Flipkart product listing has cast some doubts over these discounts that e-tailers offer.

A photo posted on Flipkart's Facebook page by Kolkata-based Mani Sankar Sen shows a pair of wedges that is selling on the website for Rs 399, down from their original price of Rs 799.

 

However, a closer look at the product's image on the listing page shows that the pair of wedges were priced at Rs 399 only by the manufacturer.

 

While posting the image on Flipkart's Facebook page, Sen wrote:

Dear Flipkart Team... Whenever we think of online shopping, we definitely check your site first for the product availability. You have built huge brand value in India. But these incidents damage customers' trust factor, as well as your brand value. Please see the picture attached...

In response, Flipkart said: "Sorry about this Mani. Checking on this... will have this rectified at the earliest."
