My Experience with ‘The Girl’
Recently i ordered a book called ‘The Girl’ by Sonia Faleiro online from http://www.nbcindia.com/Descriptions.asp?6v6yr_vq=GFFLI&Book=The-Girl for Rs. 250. Then i found the same book available for Rs. 150 with other online sellers.
Read the email conversation i had with nbcindia cutomercare
me to cs@nbcindia.com
Hi,
The actual price of the book ordered is Rs.150 but it is really unfair of you to sell that online for Rs.250 and deceive the buyers. I demand reasonable explanation or cancel the order and refund the money.

Hi thanks for your response..
Your website clearly mentions (Paperback)
http://www.nbcindia.com/Descriptions.asp?6v6yr_vq=GFFLI&Book=The-Girl
The Paperback edition of the book costs only Rs.150 which you can see in flipkart

If you are shipping me ‘Hardcover’ edition the price of Rs.250 is fine with me. I expect the book be delivered promptly.
Thanks once again.
When i received the book it was a Paperback book and the price tag was scratched, inked and pasted with a sticker above.

I received the book and you guys think you are smart enough to sell a Rs.150 book for Rs.250? Take my word i will be ruining your company’s name online in all the forums available. If money and fraud is the only motive there are many other businesses available try them as well.
I wonder when this people will learn ethics in business is as important as love and trust in relationship.
Between i wonder why my experience with ‘The Girl’ is one of unpleasant?


Hi Actor ! Seeing you after a long time ! I am sorry to know about the bad experience and you to go through with your purchase of your book. spending money is no issue with us most of the time but it becomes an issue when we feel cheated ! I can understand your frustration. I too will tell people to be vigilant while placing an order online [specially with NBC India
]
Anyways, I hope we have all learned something from your experience
Take care and keep writing please !!
