So I, Kamlesh Neema ordered a Gold coin worth Rs.138,852.00 from
Amazon.in . To my surprise, all I got was an Empty Box. Yes, an EMPTY BOX! The
shipment was poorly packed like it had some clothes inside and nothing like it
had stuff worth more than a Lakh. On the day of delivery of the product I
received an SMS with the name and mobile no. of the delivery personnel. But to
my surprise somebody else came to deliver it which is never the case from
Amazon or any other e-Commerce site. They have integrated employee ID's. So if
you receive an SMS saying that X will deliver your parcel, it is very very
unlikely that Y will deliver your parcel, if incase he will always be
accompanied by X .
Looking at the packaging, my friend decided to open the parcel
right in front of the delivery person. Just when he was about to take the box
out, the delivery personnel ran away. Seeing anything fishy ? All this happened
on Feb,26.
Since then there has been an array of emails where even an A to
Z claim has been filed against the seller. For those who dont know, A to Z
claim is , "We want you to buy with confidence anytime you make a purchase
on the Amazon.in website; that's why we guarantee purchases from sellers when
payment is made via the Amazon.in website. The condition of the item you buy
and its timely delivery are guaranteed under the Amazon A-to-Z Guarantee."
When a buyer files this claim, the seller is answerable and needs to give a
firm reply else there will be legal proceedings against the seller.
This is the reply from the seller after which he stopped
replying.
"Dear Mr. Neema,
Greetings for the day!!!
I would like to inform you that we are a reputed company since
1832 and all our orders are packed under surveillance. Also before packaging we
do Quality check thrice, then only we dispatch the product.
We have checked the video and see that we have dispatch the
product P.N.Gadgil Jewellers BIS Hallmarked 5 gm, 24k (995), Plain Gold Coin(9 Coins).
We have also shared the video with Amazon team.
As you've raised an A-Z claim with Amazon and still under
review. So I would request you to please contact Amazon as they will help you
with the details.
Regards,
PNG Team"

appreciation for us, but this kind of service will affect our image and force

Its 10th of May,2016. 3 months almost and yet Amazon has done
nothing about it. I truly think , there was something fishy with the Amazon
Transportation Services. This matter would be going to the court soon !
