The iPhone 5S currently retails for Rs. 28,999 Rupees on Snapdeal. A college kid got it for Rs 68 ONLY. Here's how. Punjabi University B.Tech student Nikhil Bansal did what anyone would do if they spot a 99.7% off on an iPhone - he grabbed it.
He ordered the iPhone 5S for Rs 68 on February 12 2016, and waited. The phone never came, because it might have been a technical snag rather than a great Snapdeal discount. The order was cancelled and Nikhil never received that iPhone. He sent several emails to the company support team but there was no revert.
Finally, he filed a consumer court complaint and alleged that Snapdeal refused to ‘honor the deal’. Not only did the court order Snapdeal to sell him the iPhone 5S for Rs. 68, but the ecommerce giant was also made to pay a Rs 2000 penalty.
Snapdeal contested the decision in a consumer forum, and reportedly lost again, this time being ordered pay a fine of Rs 10,000 to close the case.
