Hey OzBs, so I purchased a BigBoi Mini Blower for $236.95 on Black Friday Sales due to $50 off on $250+ spend and $10 off from Welcome Discount Code. This is the product: https://www.sparesbox.com.au/part/bigboi-blowr-mini-touchles…
Now here's the issue: I received an email stating that estimated time of dispatch was 2 weeks from date of purchase when it's usually 24-48 hours but that's fine cause lots of orders. No worries. A week later I get an email saying they no longer have any stock available and can NOT get any more stock as the supplier has cut off supply, yet it is still available to add to cart and order on their websites more than a month later. I was asked if I wanted a refund and I asked them to honour the sale, where they said that the supplier can no longer provide stock, and their supplier is the manufacturer themselves (BigBoi) yet are somehow still sending out stock. Now, here's the thing. Do I give up and go buy it elsewhere for $45 more cause I'm being unreasonable, or does it feel like bait & switch which I should push/report to ACCC?
Push ACCC for what? Get your money back and move on.
Leave them accurate reviews to warn others.
