Online Shopping : deals and discussion thread

There was a discussion and outrage on me about it in corona thread.
Let's not go into it here.
 
 
 
Every single place has been advocating minimising physical interaction, if you don't want to do that, that's still fine. But please don't make it sound like it's normal.

No more OT from me.

It might be wrong (debatable - although I'd say it's not but no point in discussing that)

 

but it is definitely very normal.

 

Normal is something that's done more than it is not done

and something that is allowed/legal as well.

Big Basket has stopped CoD in my area saying its to prevent physical interaction. Is Nagpur division run by morons? Anyways, Nagpur is gone down the drain. All hospitals are full and its residents (including my close relatives) are taking Corona lightly. Soon people will die on streets as they are now led by headless chickens after transferring their Municipal Commissioner who was somehow able to control the outbreak.

Yes, there is no option for cod on big basket here (Nagpur) too.

 

But I failed my payment and it automatically got converted to cod.

 

Amazon has started cod though.

Let me contact them to close this loophole and cancel such orders if not paid. Thanks for information.

But you can't return extra food to avoid the delivery fee.

You can actually return items from Online orders on Bigbasket. The amount goes back in your wallet first, and then to your card if you contact their CC via chat. They had forgotten to bring me one of the items for me, and then they marked as Item returned by me so that the delivery guys don't get blamed. I got the money back for that item. Happened 2-3 times so far.

Didn't know about it as I always prefer cod.

It's done for now though, now I ll be back to regular usage account and don't mind wallet money there.

While doing that, please ask them to start packing items in proper bags and chilled items in refrigerated vans/dry ice. No point in refusing COD if I have to anyway come into close contact with the delivery guy.

They have cold items in separate boxes with dry ice and they keep my items in a basket. I then pick them up and put it in my bags, staying far away from the guy. This is the standard process they follow here.

Then they are following exceptional standards in Pune.

Yeah here also they don't give a bag. Our society doesnt allow them inside so there is a designated space near the watchman they just heap it into piles according to flat number and leave it there.

 

@playstationdude maybe ask your society to try this way. 

 

Same with SuperDaily also.

That option is there but it creates a bit of mess. Don't know what issue Bignasket has with packing stuff in a bag like Grofers does. Just keep dairy and veggies unpacked.
