An open letter to Flipkart Dear Mr. Out Of Stock,Thank you for offering The Big Billion Day sale. Today is the 6th of October, 2014 and its a day when you offered the biggest sale. Lets start rom the top. MY whole intent of writing this letter to you is to make you understand that you need a bigger warehouse and trust me on that because it is said to be beleived that today is your biggest sale offering and most of your sale products(which you advertised) went out of stock in less than a minute! I mean were you offering only 0.0001% of your stock of that product on sale? You were offering some phones at Re 1 and some at Rs 900. How many peices of those handsets were being offered at the sale price? 1 or 10 or 100? Okay, for an instance let me beleive that my net connection was slow(which is not the case) and I missed out of deals. But when I went to purchase a Macbook Pro which you were offering at Rs 49.5k your website did not allow me to put the item in my cart. After a lot of tries I get to see a page Error 500: Internal sever error where you are calling Houston trying to act smart! Ah well! Let me tell you that I did not give up and tried refreshing a lot of times and finally went to the cart page. This took me about 5 minutes. Then surprisingly I see my cart is emplty even though I had put the item in my cart. And after several attemps when I was able to checkout I see that you are showing that item, Out of Stock! What are you trying to do here? Steal Deals!!! Steal Deals!!! Steal Deals!!! What is there to steal in it when the same item is available at a lower price on your competitors website(Amazon this time) even though they are not making a GAGA about the discounts!The Canon 1200D with dual lens which you were offering at around Rs 26.5k today was being offered by Amazon.in at Rs 20.5k.Same with Apple MacBook Air and other products. I dont know why are you trying to fool us! On 4th October 2014 I got a mail from both of you saying a few emotional lines about the start-up and how this will be big sale. You forgot to mention that its not a big sale, it is a sale which goes out of stock in 1-3 seconds. Btw, your marketing guy is doing a great job! Super great job!Think of naming your next sale as, Indias biggest out of stock sale in 1 second! Yours sincerly, A Flipkart First customer To all those who could connect with this letter, please go ahead and share it. Dont worry. This letter wont go out of stock!
